High channel count measurement and analysis is often used for vibration measurement and analysis, Machine Vibration Health Monitoring (MVHM), structural test, where a large number of input channels is requested. Sometimes the input number will be requests as decades, hundreds or more, and the precision of synchronization is concerned.
ECON MI-8 series is a typical high-channel count measurement and analysis system. It is designed based on PXI bus and self-contained controller, supporting independent running without PC. Its inputs and outputs are modular and expandable with high synchronization precision assured by PXI bus. MI-8 series support multiple software modules in synchronized data acquisition and measurement.
MI-8 series has been successfully employed for grounding vibration testing of
Long March 7 Series Launch Vehicle in China.
