Time Stamping for Multi-Channel Data Acquisition Systems

Posted by AMETEK Customer Service on Mar 26, 2018 2:19:59 PM

For multi-channel data acquisition systems, getting the correct readings in the correct timed order is crucial. System designers have two options for acquiring data in a deterministic fashion. They can use a real-time operating system (RTOS), that has a known buffer delay/ processing order or acquire data with a time-stamp for every sample and use precise hardware triggers and an accurate clock.

What is Watts vs. Volt-Amperes in DC Power Supply?

Posted by AMETEK Customer Service on Dec 5, 2016 1:56:49 PM

To select the right power source for your applications, one of the first things that you must do is to figure out how much output power you need. For a DC supply, this is relatively straightforward. You first determine the highest output voltage you'll need and then the highest output current that you'll need. The output power (in watts) is equal to the output voltage times the output current:

Maximizing UPS Battery Life

Posted by AMETEK Customer Service on Aug 8, 2016 3:26:27 PM

GUPS_Main_ImageThe Elgar GUPS Series of uninterruptible power supplies are ruggedized on-line UPSs that accept a broad range of worldwide utility and military AC input power. Without operator intervention, they automatically select the appropriate input power ranges to accommodate global operation. The batteries used in the GUPS Series units are a spiral wound, valve-regulated, lead-acid batteries. While the unit itself maximizes battery life with automatic, microprocessor-controlled equalization and temperature compensation during charging, there are steps that users can take to extend UPS battery life even more.
