Hi-Techniques Echelon Series Rental

The Modal Shop’s newest pyroshock and ballistics-capable data acquisition offering, the Echelon series is a modular system based on a single Processor module supporting up to 64 channels at 100 kS/s per channel or up to 16 channels at up to 1 MS/s per channel. 

Key Benefits

• Up to 16 channels at 1 MS/s/ch for SRS (shock response spectrum) per MIL-STD-810 recommendation to accurately obtain accurate peaks for shock and pyroshock testing
• Integrated Universal signal conditioning supports mixing and matching virtually any sensor type
  • Strain gages
  • Accelerometers
  • Thermocouples
  • Load cells
  • Pressure transducers
• Takes advantage of SAR ADC architecture for low latency, high accuracy signal processing with low power consumption. SAR ADC also eliminates overshoot up to 20%, known as the Gibbs Phenomena, inherent in systems using Sigma-Delta ADC architecture.
• Included software available for PC or tablet provides real-time control, display, and analysis
• Remote control, power, and system synchronization with a single Ethernet interconnect cable increases flexibility and reduces setup complexity and weight

Key Features

• IP 67 Environmental rating protects against dust and water
• Shock protection up to 100 g on 3 axes
• -40° to +85° C operating temperature
• Optional GPS/IRIG on the Processor Module allows all data to be time synchronized even between widely separated systems. GPS position is also provided with 20 Hz fast update rate.

Integrated Universal signal conditioning offers software selectable conditioning for virtually any sensor type including strain gages, accelerometers, thermocouples, load cells, and pressure transducers on a per channel basis for maximum configuration flexibility. Need to mix and match sensor types in any configuration? No problem with the Echelon.
