Accumeasure 500 - Modular Rack Systems

The Accumeasure 500 is a compact modular rack system that can hold up to six measurement channels or summing amplifiers. It has a built-in low-noise AC power supply for 85-265 VAC operation. Multiple Accumeasure 500 racks may be synchronized together for multichannel operation on a common surface to avoid inter-channel interference. These rack systems are cost effective for large multi-channel applications. An optional 12 Vdc version is also available for in-vehicle testing of displacement, vibration, run-out or thickness.The Accumeasure 500 also accepts push/pull" capacitance amplifiers for use on conductive, semiconducting and rotating targets with poor or nonexistent grounds.

The Accumeasure 500 compact capacitance rack system accepts up to 6 standard capacitance amplifiers. The modular design allows customers to populate the rack with their required number of measurement channels and summing amplifiers for thickness or differential measurements. Compact by design, the Accumeasure 500 is ideal for in vehicle testing of brake rotors, axel runout or thermal expansion testing.
