DataFlex-1000 & DataFlex-1000A Series
High-Speed, High-Capacity Recorders - NOW WITH BUILT-IN SIGNAL CONDITIONING!
DSPCon's DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A Series with built-in signal conditioning takes real-time, high-performance data acquisition and analysis to a new level. With more bandwidth capacity, storage alternatives, scalability, and configurability for any sensor or signal conditioning type, the DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A Series continues to lead the competition in price, performance and value!
Built-in Signal Conditioning
Featuring state-of-the-art, fully-integrated signal conditioning for a wide variety of strain, IEPE, thermocouple, and multi-mode conditioners, as well as instrumentation amplifiers and frequency-to-voltage conversion, the built-in signal conditioning is fully compatible with all DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A models, fully-integrated, and self-calibrating. Whether your have a 16-channel standard system or a 1,000-channel customized solution, each channel can be set-up via spreadsheet or with an easy-to-use comprehensive GUI and can be run locally or remotely via an integrated Ethernet connection.
The DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A Series with signal conditioning has been specifically designed to provide an easy, cost-effective way to perform a wide variety of tests, and satisfy a multitude of applications, without separate signal-conditioning plug-in modules. It provides flexible performance that can be configured to meet exact functionality and budgetary requirements, including as a back-up, stand-alone signal conditioner when data recording is not required, within a broad range of rotating machinery industries including:
- Turbine engine monitoring
- Energy generation
- Acoustic testing within the aerospace industry
- High-value shock and vibration testing for major Department of Defense customers and prime contractors
Accommodating analog and digital requirements for a wide variety of vibration, telemetry, voice and video data storage applications, the DataFlex-1000 and DataFlex-1000A Series features a number of high-capacity, “hot-swappable” 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. DataFlex systems can be used as a high-performance, stand-alone data recorder/replay unit; a virtual lab instrument; or full-function data analyzer when integrated with DSPCon’s analytical software packages. The DataFlex produces and accepts a variety of data formats and directly writes to the DATX format, which is currently the data format of choice at a number of leading Fortune 100 organizations.
