LXI Matrix Switching Unit
ProDAQ 6140
-
The ProDAQ 6140 provides a relay matrix which can be fitted between the sensors and actuators on a device under test and the data acquisition and control system. It allows to separately connect/disconnect the signals from either side and to connect them to an internal bus. In this way signals can be routed via the bus to new destinations or the bus can be used to monitor or supply test signals. This allows calibrating and debugging the system without disconnecting and separating channels throughout the system wiring.

Programmable Voltage Reference Plug-In
ProDAQ 3202
-
The ProDAQ 3202 voltage reference card is used in the ProDAQ 3180 ultra-performance motherboards and LXI function card carriers. The ProDAQ 3202 voltage reference card is plugged directly onto the motherboard or carrier and can distribute the reference voltage to all ProDAQ function cards via two signal lines. This allows the distribution as a differential signal to overcome possible noise pick-up.

19 in. Rack-Mount Tray
ProDAQ 6210
-
The ProDAQ 6210 19-inch rack-mount tray allows users to install up to two ProDAQ 6100 LXI function card carriers in a standard, 19-inch rack. With the ProDAQ 6100 installed in an LXI function card carrier, the ProDAQ 6210 uses no more than 1U space. Adjustable rear supports ensure that the tray can be installed in most 19-inch racks.

16-Channel RTD Signal Conditioning Card
ProDAQ 5821
-
The ProDAQ 5821 series of Signal Conditioning Cards is designed to interface with a variety of sensors, principally RTDs, Thermistors, Cryogenic Diodes and Voltage type sensors. Each version of the 5821 provides the capability of precise 4-wire measurement. In order to achieve this, a precise 500μA constant current source is provided per channel. The current source can be disabled on a per channel basis and is monitored to ensure that current is flowing. The value of the output current is stored on-board after calibration. In order to achieve the highest accuracy the output current may be automatically calibrated 'on-the-fly' using the ProDAQ 3416 24-bit Sigma-Delta ADC card and an on-board precision resistor.

Signal Conditioning Carrier
ProDAQ 5720
-
The ProDAQ 5720 Signal Conditioning Unit provides power and cooling for up to two Signal Conditioning Cards from the ProDAQ 58xx Series. These Signal Conditioning Cards provide conditioning for 8 or 16 channels and can be used directly with Bustec’s high-performance ProDAQ ADC function cards such as the ProDAQ 3416 16-ch. Sigma-Delta ADC Function Card or the ProDAQ 3424 8-ch. Sigma-Delta ADC Function Card.To connect the function cards to the signal conditioning cards SCSI-style cables from the ProDAQ 8010-Bx Series are used. They provide shielded twisted pair connections for signals and control.
