World-leading gas measurement and control experts, Chell Instruments, have further expanded their nanoDAQ-LT series with the nanoDAQ-LTC-8, suitable for highly precise pressure measurement in small-scale applications.
The new nanoDAQ-LTC-8 is designed for applications where small size and light weight are a priority. Though small in size, the new 8 channel model retains the features and performance that would be expected from their class-leading LT range.
“When designing the compact nanoDAQ-LTC-8, we made it our priority to deliver a smaller size product without sacrificing any of the industry-leading features that make our scanners so valuable. As a result, we’re proud to release the smallest intelligent pressure scanner available, delivering up to 0.04% FS accuracy” says Jamie Shanahan, Director of Chell Instruments.
The nanoDAQ-LTC-8 is a fully configurable smart pressure scanner that acquires and transmits data to a host via CAN (controller area network) bus. With 8 measurement channels and a reference channel, the nanoDAQ-LTC-8 can output in absolute and differential pressure.
As a returning feature from the Chell Instruments nanoDAQ-LT series, the new sensor has the ability to add Ethernet communications (via optional daughter board), allowing full configuration and access to the inbuilt web server.
The nanoDAQ-LTC-8 addresses the sensors at a defined rate, acquires the output and applies a pressure and thermal calibration to deliver data in accurate engineering units.
Designed for its miniature size, the nanoDAQ-LTC-8 weighs just 17g to enable pressure measurement on smaller objects and delicate surfaces that require high precision.
“Our products are used to test pressure, vacuum and gas flow measurement for all different shapes and sizes. We are always looking for ways to develop new solutions that can be used for even more testing scenarios. With the launch of the nanoDAQ-LTC-8, we’ve created a compact self-contained acquisition system that’s helping our customers gather precise data for lightweight applications” adds Jamie.
North Walsham-based Chell Instruments have been providing pressure, vacuum and gas flow measurement equipment for over 40 years.
With their specialist technology supporting key sectors, including aerospace, pharmaceuticals, energy and motorsport, Chell Instruments are regularly developing their product with new innovations.
“Championing innovation is at the heart of everything we do at Chell instruments and the continuing development of the nanoDAQ-LT series is a testament to our commitment to pushing the boundaries of precision. We look forward to seeing clients utilise the new nanoDAQ-LTC-8 for intelligent pressure measurement and control” adds Jamie.
