VTI Instruments - APEX Turbine Data System (DS)
The APEX Turbine Data System (DS) is the next generation of data acquisition, control, setup, and online analysis. It reliably acquires time-synchronized data from a network of digitizers, regardless of sample rate or sensor type.
Setup & Control
- Very high reliability – Unit Under Test doesn’t wait for data system
- Can use same software with different hardware
- Operators only need to learn one interface
- Pick whatever hardware is best for the test
- Completely open architecture
- Data format non-proprietary, public
- Seamless integration of dynamic data and Static Data Acquitsition System data
- Used extensively by most major OEM’s
Online Data Analysis
- Complete online, real time engineering analysis of data saves time and money
- Improve Unit Under Test safety
- Eliminate useless testing
- Accelerate offline analysis
- Use multiple monitoring stations/engineers to distribute analysis workload
- Sophisticated use of frequency domain limits provides advanced online analysis capability
- FREE Data Viewer
More Product Information
The SM7000 Series microwave switching modules are members of the VXI Technology SMIPII™ family. They offer a modular design allowing custom switching configurations to be easily assembled and modified in the field.
The SM7000 is a single-wide, C-size VXI module, which can support up to six different microwave switches including: a dual SPDT; SP3T through SP6T; transfer switches and passthrough adapters that allow the module to control up to eight externally mounted relays each.
The award winning VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform (VMIP™) provides customers with a level of modularity for instruments that is unmatched in the industry. The VMIP™ makes a single VXIbus card slot three times more powerful than single device solutions. Each VMIP™ instrument can be mixed and matched with other VMIP™ devices for added flexibility.
The PXIe chassis include 18-slot chassis (CMX18 and CMX18A) and 9-slot chassis, pictured (CMX09 and CMX09A).
