B&K Precision: DAS1800 Precision Grows Data Acquisition Recorder Line with New Modular Solution
January 9, 2024
B&K Precision announced the expansion of its Data Acquisition Recorder line with the DAS1800.
This all-in-one unit offers an extensive set of features with an all new user-friendly interface designed to reduce the learning curve and improve overall efficiency. It also raises the bar for performance and configurability.
The DAS1800 provides sample rates of up to 1 MSa/s, a configurable base unit with 10 module slots, large internal solid-state drive of 2 TB, a 15.6” Full HD multi-touch display, and optional internal battery lasting up to 3.5 hours on a single charge. The battery configured model only weighs 15 lbs — making it the lightest all-in-one system in its class and ideal solution for field testing.
Measurement modules available now include:
- Universal: 4-channel isolated universal input module for measuring voltages up to 600 VDC or 424 VRMS, temperature with thermocouples, and current (with shunt) at up to 1 MSa/s/ch
- High Impedance: High impedance version of the universal module with 10 MΩ for ranges ≥ ± 1 V and 25 MΩ for ranges ≤ ± 0.5 mV
- Multiplexed: 8-channel non-isolated differential input module for measuring voltages up to
± 48 V, temperature with thermocouples and RTDs, 4-20 mA current (with shunt), and resistance up to 10 kΩ at sampling rates up to 5 kSa/s.
Save time acquiring, visualizing, and analyzing data using the comprehensive software features available on the DAS1800. Quickly set up channels by storing and recalling sensor information from the customizable sensor library. Visualize data in real-time as waveforms or numeric values, and create custom dashboards. Playback recordings and easily navigate to points of interest using touch gestures such as pinch to zoom and one finger scrolling. B&K Precision also provides free DASpro software for viewing and analyzing recorded data on a PC.
The DAS1800 base unit has a list price of $12,990 and input modules start at $2,890. Users can rest assured their investment is protected with a standard 3-year warranty, and new features are delivered through software and firmware updates via the internet or a USB drive at no extra cost. Additionally, the modular design of the DAS1800 ensures that it can be easily reconfigured as testing needs evolve.
