The Bridge Pod allows measurement of force, displacement, and pressure using a range of strain-gauge transducers. A 300 Hz low-pass filter is built in to reduce signal noise and manual offsetting is provided for balancing (zeroing).
The following transducers are suitable for use with the Bridge Pod:
MLT050/A
Force Transducer (0 - 50 g)MLT500/A
Force Transducer (0 - 500 g)MLT1030/A
Wide Range Force Transducer (10 mg - 1 kg)MLT0210/A
Teaching Force TransducerMLT003/A
Hand DynamometerMLT0380/A
Reusable BP Transducer (for large animals).
Applications include measurements of force, smooth muscle contraction, animal arterial pressure.
Hardware:ADInstruments signal conditioners only function with PowerLab data
acquisition units and therefore are not suitable for use with other data
acquisition systems.
