Signal Splitter
Instrumental to Your Output
The Dynamic Signal Buffered Splitter protects sound and vibration sensor acquisitions from the unwanted effects of a parallel troubleshooting or diagnostic instruments. The Signal Splitter also provides buffered and unbuffered outputs connected to the same signal input. Up to 16 sensors, typically accelerometers, proximity probes, microphones, and pressure transducers, may be connected to the 16 signal inputs.
G Systems Dynamic Signal Buffered Splitter provides dual outputs from a single signal input and buffers the secondary output from the primary. This feature allows signals to be monitored with an external instrument without affecting the primary system measurements. Sensors are connected to the front input signal, and the un-buffered (pass-through) outputs are connected to the primary Data Acquisition System (DAQ) on the rear panel. The buffered outputs can be connected to an external instrument through the buffered output front panel connection.
The 16 un-buffered (pass-through) outputs and 16 buffered outputs may be connected to acquisition hardware like the NI Dynamic Signal Acquisition Module.
- The box dimensions are 19” wide x 10.08” deep x 3.47” high.
- Power comes thru an IEC320-C14 standard inlet with a range of 88-264VAC and 47-63Hz.
- Power consumption is typically 8 watts.
- The Dynamic Signal Buffered Splitter supports one sensor input ranges: +/-30 VDC. 3dB bandwidth is DC-200KHz.
This device enables test engineers to connect external measurement instruments to the system for additional measurement functionality or diagnostics without affecting the measurements on the primary measurement system. Typical transducer measurement inputs include accelerometers, microphones, pressure, and proximity. For example, a short connected to the buffered output will not affect the pass-through outputs.
For customers that require additional functionality, G Systems also provides hardware and software customization services
