Strain Measuring Equipment
Ten Channel Strain Meter Model 8692
The Model 8692 ten channel direct reading digital instrument is useful in a wide range of applications for accurate multichannel measurement of strain with resistance strain gauges in ¼, ½ or full bridge configurations. Bridge voltages and Mode are selected by push button. The strain measurement instrument is housed in a two tone case incorporating adjustable carrying handles which also acts as a means of inclining the instrument for easier bench top use.
Battery operation makes it useful as a portable strain meter.
