Typhoon

Compact 16- to 32-channel measurement system
with 24-bit ADC

Overview


This high-performance, multi-channel, 19“ measurement system is suited for use in a laboratory as well as in the field. The Typhoon measurement systems will be equipped with PCI-Express measuring cards as per customer request.

The system allows installation of up to 12 Apollo PCI-Express measuring cards. With the optionally available 1-slot APOLLO_PCIe-SLOW extension card, additional connectors for external GPS system synchronisation and 8x SLOW channels are provided for each Apollo_PCIe measuring card. Leveraging external sample synchronisation, the measurement systems may be implemented with any number of channels.

The exchangeable, high-end CPU card (slot-Card CPU PIG-MG) with the Intel XEON Server CPU ensures high reliability. Power supply and ventilation have been sized generously. Exchangeable 2.5″ SATA SSDs serve as data storage facility. The internal RAID system safeguards high data storage safety. For mobile use we offer a sturdy 19“ rack with 4 HE as additional protection casing, featuring lockable covers and strong carrying handles.
