Pressure measurement

[kevin512]

Hi,

I am new to LabVIEW and NI instruments. I am working on building an experimental setup. I need to perform pressure and temperature measurements.

I was able to do temperature measurement using thermocouples as sensor, NI9213 module (cDAQ-9174). I am not clear on how to do pressure measurement.

The pressure sensor is an Omega thin-film Pressure transducer (Link below)

I have the NI9205 module. I am not sure if I can do measurement using this or I need to use a different module.

Please suggest

Hello

I reccommned to use something similar like  NI-9236C Series Strain/Bridge Input Module.

The output of the pressure sensors are very low and they required a bidge to be measured accurately.

Read this limk, may help to take better decision

Thank you for the suggestion.

I had been able to figure out the measurement with the suggestion
