Unleash versatility: HBM MX840B amplifier redefines universal power

The QuantumX MX840B eight-channel universal amplifier by HBM

HBM Test and Measurement is a leading manufacturer of solutions that businesses access via Durham Instruments – like the QuantumX MX840B eight-channel universal amplifier. This product is a 24-bit universal measuring device for all common sensor technologies and the universal measuring amplifier of the QuantumX line.

The MX840B automatically identifies every transducer with innovative “Plug & Measure” technology, which means it is immediately ready to begin operating.

Ideal for frequently changing applications

With sensors and transducers based on 17 sensor technologies that can connect to each channel on the device, this universal amplifier is a versatile solution for various tasks. The Durham Instruments team deems the MX840B suitable for general manufacturing, aerospace, automation, food processing, forestry, the medical field, the military, mining, packaging, power generation, alternative energy, transportation, and research and development.

A key benefit is the minimal setup time in the test stand, making the MX840B ideal for frequently changing measuring applications. Customers can use this instrument as a standalone tool or combined with other modules; this is possible in various topologies or by connecting the modules to a computer or data recorder, resulting in unmatched flexibility and scalability in the industry.

This module offers a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter, sample rates of 40 kilosamples per second per channel, high precision, and active low-pass filters. By combining precision, flexibility, and measurement setup at lightning speed, the QuantumX MX840B serves as an all-purpose instrument for challenging, highly efficient data acquisition in measurement, already used in tens of thousands of applications. Relevant scenarios include test stands, service applications, mobile data acquisition, and monitoring.

Among other benefits of using this efficient, time-saving device:

• Active low-pass filter;
• Automatic channel configuration through “Plug & Measure”;
