Kyowa BS-25BT Strain Transducer
Made in Japan
Manufacturer: Kyowa Electronic Instruments Co., Ltd.
Model: BS-25BT
These transducers are intended for measurement of the strain occurring inside concrete with comparatively large aggregates.
Strain transducers BS-25AT/BS-25BT are intended for measurement of the strain occurring inside concrete with comparatively large aggregates. Since a temperature measuring function is provided, these transducers can simultaneously measure strain and temperature.
Features
●The linear expansion coefficient is approximated to that of concrete to minimize temperature effects, thereby enabling measurement of external force-initiated strain and the strain corresponding to temperature stress.
●Minimal damage against vibrator during embedment and endures vibration by the RCD method.
●The rated capacity of BS-25AT is ±500μm/m, and BS-25BT is ±1000μm/m.
