The Dual Pressure Amplifier Module is a precision bridge transducer
amplifier
and regulated 5 volt DC bridge excitation source. The 300-204 will operate most
implanted pressure transducers (i.e. Konigsberg), pressure catheters (i.e. Millar)
and
extracorporeal gauges. There are two identical, independent amplifiers
contained in the
module.
The Model 300-204 provides front panel adjustment for bridge balance.
Calibration and
zero are generated with precision internal bridges and are selected
with a front panel
Run/Calibrate switch. The 'zero' output represents a balanced
bridge and the calibrate
position represents 100 mm Hg when used with a
5uV/V/mm Hg sensitivity gauge. The
calibration output can be used with other
gauge sensitivities and the full-scale
calibration value will be inversely proportional
to 5uV/V/mm Hg divided by the actual
gauge factor.
The Model 300-204 provides both instantaneous and mean output signals. The
output
signals are controlled by a set of front panel gain and offset controls which
make it
possible to configure the module to drive chart recorders, tape recorders,
A/D converters,
etc.
