The SGDC is a signal conditioner (amplifier) for load sensors, offering unique features and unmatched performance.
It collects the raw mV/V signal from wired sensors and transmits load values directly to displays and monitoring systems via NMEA2000 or CAN J1939.
The NMEA2000 version is directly compatible with most modern marine electronics, including B&G, NKE, Garmin, Madintec, Pixel sur Mer, Sailmon, Raymarine, Expedition Marine, and Actisense.
Available in 1 or 2 channel versions, the SGDC can manage one or two sensors in parallel, with a configurable transmission frequency up to 100 Hz. It can also combine both load values (addition, subtraction, averaging) to generate and deliver one or more additional computed variables.
Thanks to its 24-bit ACDC converter and high-performance processor, the SGDC ensures unrivalled accuracy and outstanding stability.
Compact, rugged, IP67-rated, and immune to electromagnetic disturbances (such as lightning), it is designed to withstand the harshest environments.
The SGDC is the ideal companion for your wired load sensors, providing an ultra-precise and reliable measurement chain.
A tool kit is available for integrators and distributors. It contains a USB/CAN adapter and the configuration software.
The SGDC can also be configured directly using our UpSideUp and Sail'in Ctrl controllers, and their ControlCentre.
