Multichannel Pressure Scanner PSC16

The PSC16 can measure up to 16 pressure channels. The reference pressure sensor lines all join up as a single pressure port. There are several pressure ranges to choose from, all channels are equipped with the same sensor types. All PSC's are equipped with an USB-port to read measurement data.

Ethernet- (LAN), RS232- (SubD) or CAN-interfaces are optionally available. Moreover, there is a special version where each pressure port has its own reference port.

The device has the following properties:

• The data is transmitted as ASCII text in the unit Pascal [Pa]. Through a simple protocol, the transmission rate can be adjusted in the range between 1 and 50Hz.
• A TARE function (PSC24-USB) can be triggered either by pressing the TARE button on the front panel or via a software command.
• The 8-channel model (PSC8-USB-MV) is optionally available with built-in magnetic valves with an automatic zero calibration of the sensors while the pressure is attached. 
• The power supply of the pressure scanner is provided via the USB port. For the variant with megnetic valves (PSC8-USB-MV) an external power supply is necessary. 
• Since the pressure scanner logs as a virtual COM port in the system, any software can be used, which supports the RS232 protocol. A sample program for use with LabVIEW is included.
