Temperature Multiplexer Data Acquisition Logger.

Complete data acquisition software and hardware systems for data loggers and data recorders that feature high performance analog-to-digital signal conversion with signal conditioning to allow you to acquire data without programming. The DAQ series of data recorder and data logger products provide 10, 16, 32, 48 or 64 analog input channels with signal conditioning and 10 BaseT Ethernet connectivity (wireless Ethernet also available)to your PC or laptop for fast setup, display and processing of your system's data.

Since the system is integrated with National Instruments products, it offers direct control of all hardware on the DAQ board from the LabVIEW software. LabVIEW is the emerging standard in visual programming based instrumentation control systems. LabVIEW is programmed with a set of graphical icons (called "G") which are connected with "wires". The combination of a DAQ board and LabVIEW software makes a virtual instrument or a vi. A vi can perform like an instrument and is programmable by the software with the advantage of flexibility of logging the data that is being measured.

A single data logger can read a large number of sensors provided they are concentrated into a small area. Additional loggers should be deployed if sensors are distributed over a wide area. This keeps signal cables short, reduces problems with noise, and minimizes the potential for damage from construction activities and electrical transients. Cost savings on cable can sometimes pay for the additional loggers.

Data acquisition is the sampling of the real world to generate data that can be manipulated by a computer. Sometimes abbreviated DAQ or DAS, data acquisition typically involves acquisition of signals and waveforms and processing the signals to obtain desired information. The components of data acquisition systems include appropriate sensors that convert any measurement parameter to an electrical signal, which is acquired by data acquisition hardware.

Go ahead and compare the Agilent Technologies 34970A Data Acquisition/Switch Unit with other data acquisition systems currently available. You'll find it hard to come up with a system that offers the powerful measurement performance, flexibility, and ease of use of the 34970A even in systems costing three to five times as much.

The ThermPOD range of temperature monitoring instruments is a market leader in the area of multi-channel, multi-user high speed temperature monitoring systems. With unlimited number of channels, instruments that can be supplied with 1 to 16 inputs and multi-sample rate operations, you have the ultimate in flexibility. There is no limit on how you can mix the sensor interfaces. No other product on the market today can match the ThermPOD in both speed, expandability and flexibility. Fully integrated into SCADA, HMI and data acquisition packages. The ThermPod range of temperature instruments provides the low cost per channel of any high performance distributed system on the market today.

Data acquisition begins with the physical phenomenon or physical property of an object (under investigation) to be measured. This physical property or phenomenon could be the temperature or temperature change of a room, the intensity or intensity change of a light source, the pressure inside a chamber, the force applied to an object, or many other things. An effective data acquisition system can measure all of these different properties or phenomena.

A transducer is a device that converts a physical property or phenomenon into a corresponding measurable electrical signal, such as voltage, current, change in resistance or capacitor values, etc. The ability of a data acquisition system to measure different phenomena depends on the transducers to convert the physical phenomena into signals measurable by the data acquisition hardware. Transducers are synonymous with sensors in DAQ systems. There are specific transducers for many different applications, such as measuring temperature, pressure, or fluid flow. DAQ also deploy various Signal Conditioning techniques to adequately modify various different electrical signals into voltage that can then be digitized using ADCs.

Data transfer peripherals that require power from the data logger can be connected to this port via an SC12 cable. This port is also used for connecting the data logger to a PC via an SC32B or SC-USB interface when optical isolation is required.

Digital temperature sensors are read and the data logged directly into a rugged handheld computer, or remotely over a wide area network (the internet) using low cost, rapidly deployed hardware and software options. Extensive instrument training is not required.

ISO 9001:2000 certified custom manufacturer of data acquisition recorders. Types of recorders include paperless, software, field housing and data logger recorders. Recorders are available with 115/230 VAC power supply, 6 analogues and 3 digital maximal input, 4 relay to 18 relay maximal output.

Now you don't have to spend your valuable time writing or configuring software. Agilent BenchLink Data Logger software gives you a familiar Windows interface for test configuration and real-time data display and analysis. Even better, this full-featured data logging application is included free with every standard 34970A.

The new 34830A Benchlink Data Logger Pro software goes beyond the free Benchlink software that is included with the 34970A. Data Logger Pro is a valuable tool to set up multiple scans, initiate actions based on user defined limits, collect and analyze data in a Windows environment.

This system uses coaxial multiplexers to connect the TDR100 to up to 512 TDR probes. The TDR100 features lower current demand and a typical measurement time of 2 seconds. The operating temperature range of -25 to +50C covers typical applications as well as monitoring frost depth. Windows support software provides setup, troubleshooting, and display of waveforms and measurements. A customised 16" x 18" environmental enclosure is configured to easily mount and protect a CR10X or CR23X data logger, 12 volt power supply, TDR100, and 8-channel multiplexer.

If you need a profile of the soil water content, the EasyAG and EnviroSMART sensors are an ideal solution to measure soil moisture at multiple depths. Easy to install, the probes have a measurement range from oven dry to saturation. Integrating the probes into a data acquisition system allows the data to be telemetered back to a field station or remote computer.

ISO 6487 certified manufacturer of data acquisition processors and recorders including sensor input module, timed output module, digital input module and module for laboratory testing. Features include crashworthy, 16-bit resolution, LED indicators, control software and 13.7 cm x 12.2 cm x 3.4 cm size.

Sensors from Campbell Scientific that measure soil water matric potential use heat dissipation and electrical resistance methods. The 229-L Matric Potential Sensor covers a water potential range from -10 J/kg to -104 J/kg by using the temperature response of a heating element embedded in a ceramic matrix. A constant current source is available for reliable and precise heating. Sixteen 229-L sensors are easily multiplexed to a single data logger differential input channel using the AM16/32 multiplexer. Watermark and Delmhorst electrical resistance sensors provide an inexpensive method of measuring smaller matric potential ranges.
