4) Application for the 16-pole version of AM400 (3-wire application)

Figure 8 gives a 3-wire application which uses the 16-pole version of AM400 (Figure 11). The

dimensions of this specific application are no different from those of the 3-wire setup illustrated in

Figure 5; no detailed description shall thus be given here. One difference, however, lies in the fact

that the minimum voltage at the IA output cannot be reduced by connecting up external load resistor

specifications). For this reason the 20-pole version of AM400 is preferable for small signals.
