DSPCon Inc., a specialist in real-time data acquisition and analysis solutions for demanding, high-speed, high-bandwidth, high-channel-count applications, has announced a new portable and fully-integrated built-in signal conditioning option for the DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A series of high-performance recorders.
“In today’s economy, many would-be purchasers of dynamic, high-speed data acquisition and analysis systems are looking for superior value and performance,” said Al Brower, president and chief executive officer of DSPCon, in a release. “With our truly innovative, built-in signal conditioning option, we believe we can now offer even the most value-conscious buyer a true high-speed, high-performance data acquisition system with full signal conditioning and analysis capabilities and a superior ROI.”
This optional software-driven signal conditioning is said to provide with an easy, cost-effective way to perform a wide variety of tests, for a broad range of applications. It is also said to be compatible with all DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A models, is self-calibrating, and designed to handle most common strain gauges, RTDs, accelerometers, IEPE sensors and voltage output devices, easily and cost-effectively.
The DataFlex-1000/A Series is designed specifically to provide flexible performance that can be configured to meet exact functionality and budgetary requirements within a broad range of rotating machinery industries including turbine engine manufacturing and energy generation as well as acoustic testing within the aerospace industry and high-value shock and vibration testing for major Department of Defense customers and prime contractors.
This series of recorders can accommodate analog and digital requirements for a wide variety of vibration, telemetry, voice and video data storage applications, and features a number of high-capacity storage options, an analog bandwidth capacity of 97.2 kHz per channel with anti-alias filtering, and no degradation of bandwidth as channel count increases, regardless if channel count is 16 or over 1,000.
DataFlex-1000/A also has the capacity to produce and accept a variety of data formats and directly writes to the DATX format, which is reportedly being utilized as the data format of choice at a number of organizations.
Regarding the DataFlex-1000, DSPCon officials mentioned that it is an ideal choice for laboratory environments considering its features which includes a space-saving design and full system control, set-up and status via an integrated touch-screen display.
DSPCon has been serving the industry as a global supplier of dynamic data acquisition, analysis, archiving and recording solutions for high-value military, aerospace and rotating machinery applications.
The company claims its solutions empower organizations to streamline test and development cycles and improve operational and production efficiencies.
