The SomatXR CX22B-R data acquisition system, available from Durham Instruments

Durham Instruments distributes a wide selection of measuring instruments for industrial use in Canada, produced by top international manufacturers – including HBM Test and Measurement, known for its variety of products. Among these is HBM’s line of SomatXR data acquisition systems, which are acclaimed as the world’s most rugged DAQ systems.

What makes SomatXR DAQ systems stand out is that they are built for use in the harshest work environments. These ultra-rugged instruments resist extreme temperature, humidity, shock, dust, and vibration while staying reliable, flexible, and precise.

A wide range of applications

SomatXR rugged DAQ systems can be combined with an Ethernet interface to suit a wide range of applications, especially vehicle testing, stationary measurements, and structural health monitoring. Industries that find these instruments highly useful include aerospace, automation and controls, forestry, education, general manufacturing, the military, mining, packaging, power generation, transportation, and research and development.

Durham Instruments carries the following versions:

• CX22B-R. Acquires measured information with pre-installed measurement software by Catman, which users can tailor to suit their unique needs.
• CX23-R. Measurement module provides a web interface that allows simple operation with no software required. This enables channel parameterization, monitoring of measurement tasks, and visualization of info at large distances.
• EX23-R. Ten-gigabit Ethernet ports are available to connect other SomatXR instruments; as many as nine measurement modules can connect to the CX23-R or a computer.
• MX1601B-R Amplifier. A compact design that is easy to integrate, with high measurement quality.
• MX1609KB-R Ultra-Rugged Thermo Amplifier. Includes 16 individually configurable inputs, thermocouple mini type K, and optional measuring-point detection.
• MX1615B-R Amplifier. Designed primarily for experimental stress analysis.
• MX411B-R Ultra-Rugged Highly Dynamic Universal Amplifier. Includes four individually configurable inputs, connection of more than five transducer technologies, and a sampling rate of up to 100 kS per second per channel.
• MX471B-R Canbus Module. Includes four individually configurable channels, with an input that acquires messages and an output that sends system signals.
• MX840B-R Ultra-Rugged Universal Amplifier. Includes eight individually configurable inputs and connection of more than 16 transducer technologies per channel.
