Measurements of mechanical quantities

The Laboratory of Tests takes measurements of the following mechanical quantities (according to PB-DLB2-09 procedure):

• relative elongation (strain gauge measurements),
• displacement (by an inductive displacement converter),
• pressure (by a strain gauge pressure converter),
• force (by a force converter or indirectly by pressure measurement),
• liquid flow intensity (by a flowmeter).

The following special measuring instruments are used for measurements of the above-mentioned quantities:

• multipoint measuring system for measurements and recording of relative elongations, pressures and displacements,
• measuring amplifiers,
• recorders,
• measuring amplifiers with a software and a possibility of computer recording for the measurements of quick-changing parameters,
• strain gauge pressure converters, inductive displacement converters, resistance strain gauges, strain gauge dynamometers and turbine flowmeters,
• measuring-and-recording system on the ZD-100 material testing machine.
