Matching the number and types of measurements in a test plan with a manufacturer’s offerings can be a challenge, and often leads to spending more for channels that go unused. With 10 slots for input modules and your choice of 4 and 8 channel modules, the DAS1800 provides maximum flexibility to achieve the right number of channels for each measurement type. Users can also utilize unused slots and easily reconfigure modules as testing needs change.

Available input modules:

D18-UNI4

4-ch isolated universal input module for measuring voltages up to 600 VDC or 424 VRMS, temperature with thermocouples, or current (with shunt) at up to 1 MSa/s/ch

D18-HIZ4

High impedance version of the UNI4 module with 10 MΩ for ranges ≥ ±1 V and 25 MΩ for ranges ≤ ±0.5mV

D18-MUX8

8-channel non-isolated differential input module for measuring voltages up to ± 48V, temperature with thermocouples and RTDs, 4-20 mA current (with shunt), and resistance up to 10kΩ

Maximizing Recording & Storage
