LMS SCADAS 316, the versatile lab system

LMS SCADAS 316 offers a unique combination of extremely high channel count possibilities, channel count independent real time processing capabilities and unmatched throughput performance. The modular LMS SCADAS 316 frame with 16 slots for up to 64 channels allows channel counts expansion as needed, with the possibility to connect multiple frames in master/slave configurations. This modular solution can fit the need of any noise and vibration laboratory, starting from an inexpensive base with only four channels - to a system with several hundreds of channels. The scalability and modularity of LMS SCADAS III enables its users to apply a high number of measurement channels in extensive testing campaigns, or divide the channels over multiple testing systems. A low noise floor and fully linear 24-bit system performance at up to 204.8kHz per channel characterize the high-quality digitization of the signal.

A high-speed DSP on each 4-channel module delivers high distributed power for real-time operations with high channel counts. The master frame can optionally be connected to the host computer by a fibre optic link, and each slave frame can be over 50m away from the previous master or slave. This distributed approach means that you can minimize costly transducer cabling and obtain much higher quality measurements.
