1.5mV/V2V3mV Therefore, if the gauge factor is 2.00 (coefficient set at 1.000) the output voltage of a civil engineering transducer is 3mV and the value to be shown on a strain measuring instrument can be calculated by the following expression, which is formulated based on the voltage-to-strain relational expression; E eK 4 4e KE

By setting the gauge factor of a strain instrument at 2.00 and the output voltage of a transducer at 1V, we have the following: 2e, then 1mV/V2000106 strain. 2mV/V4000106 strain.
At Tokyo Sokki Kenkyujo Co., Ltd., we conduct quality assurance activities based on our company's quality policies to provide customers with the best products that can win their confidence.

ISO9001
In January 1997, we gained ISO 9001 accreditation (international quality assurance and management standard) for strain measuring equipment. In January 1999, we also gained ISO 9001 accreditation for transducer production. Our goal is to gain ISO 9001 accreditation for all company operations. We will further make efforts to achieve this goal and to maintain the system organized and streamlined according to the specifications of ISO9001.
