Capacitive technique for rotary displacement
The RCDT rotary displacement sensor provides a high accuracy, no friction solution to accurate rotational measurement of a shaft, through application of patented capacitive, non-contact techniques
High accuracy robust LVDTs
RDP Electronics can provide solutions to nearly all gauging sensor requirements using robust miniature LVDTs, accurate to microns in working ranges from 0.25mm to 12.7mm
Plug-in modules provide I/O options, conditioning and data logging for up to 164 transducer channels.
A key element in the Modular 600 system is the 650 digital I/O and data storage module.
At a basic level, the 650 provides a real-time LED display of any selected channel in the system.
The 650 also acts as a data hub into which a PC can be connected.
Serial data can be sent via RS232, RS422 or RS485 and RDP Electronics provides freeware to enable a PC to capture data directly to a Microsoft Excel file.
Using this data logging format on the PC provides the user with a powerful tool to create custom logging, real-time analysis and graphical reports.
In addition to external data logging features, the 650 range can be programmed to monitor and store channel values internally, uploading the stored to a PC for analysis after the data logging function has completed.
Two versions of the 650 module are available with a choice of data storage capacities.
The 650 stores up to 10,240 channel readings and the 650ME1 has an increased capacity of 65,536 readings.
Components of the Modular 600 system are described in detail in individual data sheets on the RDP website. Request a free brochure from RDP Electronics ...
