Probe Products Corporation's
HSU is a high speed intelligent transducer signal conditioner for inductive transducers of any type
including LVDT, RVDT, LVRT, half-bridge and proximity for dimensional
measurement.
The
HSU is a self-contained signal conditioner system that connects up to 128 probes
in groups of 4 transducers to any computer. Individual transducer values or complex functions results are
passed through the USB or serial/RS232 port using either binary or ASCII message
protocol.
A single
HSU provides signal conditioning for up to
16 transducers. The HSU signal conditioners are sold by groups
of 4 inputs. These
modules may be mixed to be all of one type or a mixture of LVDT,
strain gage and/or digital inputs. It is expandable to a
maximum of 128 transducers through the use of additional units by daisy
chaining one Primary and multiple Secondary units.
A powerful processor within
the unit MAY perform multiple
real-time computations (such as A+B, max/min hold, TIR
and trigonometric functions) before transferring measurements to the host
computer. The form of the computations is user
configurable to match the application. Measurement
values can be presented in a way most meaningful to the operator. Data collection is fast and
efficient. The HSU can perform approximately 2,000 transducer
readings per second with 16 bit resolution.
Measurements can be directly imported
into a variety of standard SPC software systems with either a binary or ASCII
protocol. The HSUs network compatibility
allows use on a low cost diskless workstation where the operator gets instant dimensional
data and the network provides for archiving, detailed analysis and report generation at a
central computer.
The
HSU has the capability to
operate as a gaging device triggered by a footswitch
and responding with ASCII data.
The HSU ASCII mode is simple to set up and use.
There are several ASCII commands that allow the user to use their
existing SPC package and increase functionality and reliability as well.
To acquaint new users with the powerful features of the
HSU, an application
program is furnished with the system. This program can be used as supplied to
set up a measurement system, or it can be used as a basis for customized software.
New
Pricing structure introduced creates an affordable solution to end users for as
low as $1350.00 for an
HSU-4. The popular HSU-16 is just $2700.00. OEM prices are
available with some restrictions. Please send us an email at sales@probeproducts.com.
