TraNET ® EPC Data Acquisition Instrument The Elsys Data Acquisition Instrument TraNET® EPC with its high channel density and robust housing is designed for high precision measurements in industrial environments. It is a scalable system that may grow to a total number of 64 SE channels in one device. Several devices can be synchronized with the Elsys SyncLink box. TraNET EPC is used to acquire simultaneously many traces to address various measurement tasks in applications such as test and verification of train systems, power conversion systems, automotive and power plant maintenance.

Even in burst mode applications TraNET® EPC is capable to capture thousands of blocks of data without any loss thanks to the unique Event Controlled Recording (ECR) mode. The powerful application software TranAX® not only helps to quickly configure many acquisition channels, but also provides the right post-processing tools to analyse complex waveforms.

Unused channels must be turned off! This limits are valid only for 4-Channel boards. Higher data throughput is available on request. The Elsys TPCE or TPCE-LE measuring cards are used as data acquisition cards in the TraNET® EPC. The cards are stably installed in the device and optimally cooled in order to achieve stable measurement accuracy and to guarantee a long service life for the measurement cards. The TraNET® EPC can be expanded up to 64 single-ended channels or 32 differential channels. All measuring cards from the TPCE/TPCE-LE range with sampling rates from 2 to 240 MS/s per channel...

All TPCE/TPCE-LE cards are available as single-ended (SE) or differential (DIFF) versions. Depending on how many inputs are measured differentially, an SE or DIFF card is worthwhile. Single-ended cards have one BNC connector per channel where the outside shielding is connected to chassis/protective ground. Two neighboring channel can be configured per software as differential input stage. In this case the signal must be connected as shown aside. Differential cards have two BNC connector per channel where the outside shielding is connected to chassis/protective ground. Single ended measurement...

Module Type Digital Inputs (Marker) ICP® Sensor Supply (Option) Optocoupler Connection Box (5 to 48 V) as additional option Trigger, Arm/Disarm, Ext. Sampling (fmax = A of the max sample rate), external command Trigger Output, Armed (=True during recording) 4mA Integrated Current Power for piezo sensors *1) At 16 Icit modules, the resolution will be reduced to 14 bits at sample rates over 1/4 of the max. sample rate. *2) The input noise depends on the sample rate. *3) At 14 bit modules the SNR will be reduced by 2 dB *4) At 8-channel modules the SNR will be reduced by 3 dB
