SM Modular Scanner System
To increase the versatility of the CGM-5R crack growth monitor, Matelect developed a compact, modular signal-multiplexing system designed to allow multi-point monitoring of specimens undergoing crack growth measurements.
In its most basic form the system measures up to 8 signal points sequentially; the most sophisticated version handles up to 256 points. A basic system comprises an SC-1 controller and either an SM-1 and/or SM-2 multiplexing unit.
Features
- The SM1-HF can switch signals running at up to 100kHz
- The SM2-HF can switch currents at up to 100kHz and 2A — a perfect partner for the CGM-5R
- The system can handle up to 256 channels via PDsoft, or 100 from the front panel
- The SC-1 can control up to 100 current and signal channels, expandable with SM-1 / SM-2 units
Applications
- For use with CGM-5R units
- Monitoring multiple specimens using one CGM-5R unit
- Monitoring multiple areas of interest on one specimen
