The DEWE-43 combines the kind of power that you would only expect from a high-end analyzer with the economy and form factor of a standard USB connected data acquisition front-end. The result is a stunning instrument, capable of so much, but costing so little.
- 8 channels with 200 kS/s/ch sampling
- 24-bit resolution, automatic anti-aliasing filtering
- Synchronous counters / 24 TTL digital inputs
- 2 x ISOLATED CAN bus inputs
- Runs from 6-26 VDC (includes AC adapter)
- Locking USB connector
- Includes DS-7-PROF software
Despite its small size and weight, inside the DEWE-43 beats the heart of a giant. It's got eight dynamic analog inputs, each one backed up with a 24-bit AD converter for simultaneous sampling at the highest resolution. And the inputs are our "universal" type, which can handle strain gages and voltages up to +/-10V natively ... or connect our tiny MSI adapters and convert any of them to a different input type, including IEPE accelerometer inputs, 200V inputs, RTD's and thermocouples.
Top Applications
Locking USB connector
Our unique screw on USB connector, ensures that accidental disconnection simply cannot happen.
Isolated CAN BUS interfaces
Two CAN bus interfaces are built in, and starting with the -A models, they are electrically isolated for use in noisy environments.
Synchronizable
You can synchronize multiple systems together - requires only SYNC cables, and a software selection!
Synchronous counter/encoder inputs
Each of the 8 analog channels includes a separate advanced counter input. Or you can use each counter as 3 x TTL digital inputs.
200 kS/s/ch sample rate
Each channel has its own 24-bit A/D converter. You can set the sample rate to 200 kS/s/ch maximum, or as low as 1 kS/s/ch.
DS-7 software included
The best data acq software in the world is included with each system. Install onto your Win7 (or XP) computer and get to work!
New DEWE-43-A model
Revised for 2012 is the DEWE-43-A model, in which we made many enhancements that you cannot see, plus several that you can:
First, the DS-7 edition is now PROFESSIONAL as standard, so you can sync up to four units together. We also added a second SYNC port to make daisy-chaining easier than ever.
And we added real ISOLATION to the CAN BUS interfaces, which prevents ground loops and other problems associated with these measurements.
