RTD/Resistance Input 4-wire Dual Transmitters: DT335 Video
The DT330 series signal conditioners provide two independent I/O channels in a single, space-saving unit. The DT335 module is a four-wire dual transmitter that isolates and converts RTD or linear resistance sensor inputs to proportional control signals. Each channel supports DC current or voltage output. Additionally, an optional DIN rail bus can deliver primary or…
VPX 6U Carrier Cards Host XMC & AcroPack mPCIe I/O Modules
Video: VPX 6U Carrier Cards Host XMC & AcroPack mPCIe I/O Modules for Maximum Flexibility Acromag VPX4520 and VPX4521 VPX 6U carrier cards provide maximum flexibility for interfacing one XMC and four mini-PCIe or AcroPack I/O modules to a VPX computer system. The XMC module site can host a network communication, FPGA, GPU, or other…
COM Express: Three Reasons to Use it
Aside from the small size and ruggedness characteristics of COM Express systems, the major benefits come from the ability to upgrade the CPU when necessary and the I/O module configurability. These small form factor computer systems were built to be very general purpose.
Custom Fire Suppression System for New Stadium: Acromag Case Study
Challenge: Develop a custom engineered fire suppression system for a new indoor football stadium. Regulations require protection against fire hazards which could occur during monster truck rallies or other events that may have flammable material on the stadium floor area. Solution: Akron Brass StreamMaster II Electric Fire Monitors (water cannons) with Style 5177 nozzles (1250…
