Frequently Asked Questions - 3163FG Daytronic
What is the Daytronic 3163FG used for?
The 3163FG is a signal conditioner designed for use with strain gauge and bridge sensors. It provides excitation, amplification, and filtering to convert small sensor signals into a standard industrial output.
How do I connect sensors to the 3163FG?
Connect your strain gauge bridge to the input terminals following the wiring diagram in the manual. Ensure proper polarity and use shielded cables to minimize noise.
What power supply does the 3163FG require?
The unit accepts 115/230 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Check the voltage selector on the side panel before powering up to match your local mains supply.
How do I calibrate the 3163FG?
Calibration is done via the zero and span potentiometers. Apply a known input, adjust zero first, then span for full-scale output. Refer to the manual for detailed steps and recommended calibration intervals.
Can I use the 3163FG with a thermocouple?
No, the 3163FG is specifically designed for strain gauge and bridge sensors. For thermocouples, you would need a thermocouple conditioner with cold-junction compensation.
What is the output signal of the 3163FG?
The default output is 0-10 VDC, but a 4-20 mA current loop is optional via internal jumpers. Select the output type that suits your measurement system.
How do I troubleshoot when there is no output?
First verify power supply and sensor wiring. Check if the fuse is intact. Ensure the bridge excitation is active and that the input signal is within the specified range. If still no output, contact Daytronic service.
Is the 3163FG suitable for outdoor use?
The 3163FG is designed for industrial indoor environments. If outdoor use is required, install it in a weatherproof enclosure and protect against dust and moisture.
Does the 3163FG provide isolated inputs?
Yes, the input and output stages are galvanically isolated to prevent ground loops and reduce noise, improving measurement integrity in industrial settings.
Where can I find the user manual for the 3163FG?
The free user manual is available on notice-facile.com in PDF format (32 pages, English). You can download it directly from the product page.
