4WFBS120, 4WFBS350, 4WFBS1K 4 Wire
Full Bridge Terminal Input Modules (TIM)
1. Function
The 4WFBS120, 4WFBS350, and 4WFBS1K Terminal Input Modules (TIM)
complete a full Wheatstone bridge for a single strain gage or other sensor that
acts as a single variable resistor. The difference between the three models is in
the resistor that matches the nominal resistance of a 120 ohm, 350 ohm, or
1000 ohm quarter bridge strain gage. It can also be used to complete the back
half of a Wheatstone bridge for use in a ¼ bridge strain circuit (1 active
element) using a dummy gage, or in a ½ bridge strain circuit (2 active
elements).
