Dewetron DEWE2 data acquisition system

The Dewetron DEWE2 data acquisition system allows for mutliple simultaneous sampling Trion plug-in modules, combining the modularity of PXI with a larger front panel capable of containing eight RJ45 connectors for strain gauge sensors, six or eight IEPE sensor connectors, or four or eight isolated high-voltage inputs on a single Trion module.

The modules are inserted from the front of the DEWE2 chassis. Each module can be combined and exchanged directly by the user in seconds. They plug in and out using the same locking/ejector mechanism made popular by the PXI standard. This allows the adaptation of DEWE2 instruments for every sensor and every application quickly.

The function of each measurement channel as well of the connected sensors can be proofed easily via a system check. This results in a reduction of user errors, which saves valuable time. Different chassis, most with a battery pack for independent power supply, are available.

The series is ruggedised and provides a high channel density. Analog, digital, CANbus, GPS, counter and video signals are hardware synchronised already during the measurement, due to the built-in Sync-Clock technology.

There are instruments offering from 4 to 18 Trion slots, with or without a built-in computer. The DEWE2-A4 is an all-in-one platform with four slots for any combination of Trion modules, and features an Intel i7 processor running Windows 7, and a built-in display and keyboard.
