With 500 Hz data collection and control rates, Instron's 5500
electronics feature unparalleled accuracy and advanced real-time
control. These electronics can control
the frame using any combination of load, strain, or speed
rates - often a requirement for today's testing standards.
Automatic recognition and calibration of transducers ensure
safe and proper testing.
Controller
The controller includes these high performance features:
- 40,000 data sampling
- 500 Hz selectable data capture
- 32-bit DSP technology
- 19-bit resolution
- Force measurement accuracy of +/- 0.4% of reading down to
1/100 of load cell capacity and +/- 0.5% down to 1/250 of
load cell capacity
- Intelligent data logging responds automatically to changes
in material properties during the test
- Dedicated electronics provide advanced real-time control,
error detection, and limit checking independent of the PC
- Automatic recognition and calibration of load cells and
strain transducers
- Designed to work with Series IX™ materials testing software
User Control Panel
- Provides instant access to test functions, such as start
and stops, balance load, reset gage length, and jog
- Adjustable and convenient positioning on the system load frame
- Control panel buttons are designed to give tactile and
visual feedback, which allows for safer and more practical testing
The 5500 Series electronics are matched to and compatible
with Instron's wide range of high performance load frames with
capacities from 0.5 kN (100 lb) tabletop machines to 600 kN
(200,000 lb) floor mounted machines.
