Yokogawa puts SL1000 data unit to the
test
The new Yokogawa SL1000 is a PC-based data-acquisition unit designed to provide high-speed data logging and fast data transfer in electro-mechanical and power measurement applications
Featuring 100MS/s sampling on 16 channels and isolated inputs for high-voltage measurements, the SL1000 is also equipped as standard with intuitive, easy-to-use logging and control software for quick start and set-up The ability of the SL1000 to deliver independent, isolated-channel hardware at 100MS/s per channel rates, with no compromise in bit resolution, memory depth, or streaming performance, makes it superior to high-speed digitisers that lack the isolation, attenuation, or bit resolution necessary for power electronics testing

Optical spectrum analyser has high resolution
Optical spectrum analyser combines a wide wavelength range of 1200 to 2400nm with high resolution between 50pm and 2nm and high sensitivity of -70 dBm or better.
Plant resource management software upgraded
Plant Resource Manager (PRM) software performs a detailed diagnosis of assets such as turbines and rotating and reciprocating equipment that are critical to a user's operations.
It also offers benefits over PC-based platforms with fast streaming throughput, which sacrifice noise immunity, signal conditioning and hardware integrity.
In addition to its high-speed acquisition, the SL1000 will transfer data to a PC or record to its internal hard drive at rates up to 1.6MS/s (3.2Mbyte/s).
Data transfer is via USB 2.0 or 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet.
A standalone mode also allows data logging without a PC.
The high-speed acquisition rate of 100 MS/s is maintained across all 16 channels, and is also available on a new 12-bit 1kV isolation module with 20MHz bandwidth.
Acquisition trigger modes include normal, single and single (N) condition.
The SL1000 supports parallel testing and can perform measurements simultaneously on up to four groups of signals with independent sample rates.
Eight module slots are provided for plug-in modules, of which 12 types are currently available for parameters, including voltage, temperature, strain, acceleration and frequency.
Each module incorporates its own analogue/digital convertor, and the instrument incorporates 'plug-and-play' automatic recognition of units and modules.
The SL1000 is quick and easy to use, with standard acquisition software, including a set-up wizard providing intuitive operation.
