Overview
The MPS4000 miniature pressure scanner has been designed from the ground up to be a ‘game changer’ in the world of multi-channel miniature pressure measurement. Scanivalve has spent years developing a product that will exceed expectations where collecting high speed / high accuracy data is paramount, and space limitations are a consideration. The MPS scanner is a complete data acquisition system simply requiring a low current DC power source (5-36Vdc) and an Ethernet connection. It has a very small footprint, TCP/IP connectivity, IEEE1588 support, and a wealth of other innovative features. The entire MPS4000 scanner is built around a brand new ultra-stable pressure sensor. Scanivalve has worked directly with a leading pressure sensor manufacturer to develop a custom packaging solution that allows us to maximize the transducers’ stability and accuracy.
The goal of the MPS4200 was to provide a high-channel, accurate, all-in-one data acquisition system in the smallest footprint possible. The initial footprint was developed for the 32 channel scanner using the legacy ZOC22b as a starting point. However, the MPS4200 includes many additional features that make it superior to the legacy ZOC style scanners, including built in electronics with a dual-core processor, one A/D per transducer, Ethernet connectivity, and removeable input headers. The MPS4200 is easy to use and will quickly integrate into many systems and applications. There is an integrated web server allowing the user to configure and operate the unit(s) from any device on the network. Simple demonstration programs built using LabVIEW® are available for download, which includes all VIs to assist when developing a custom program or integrating the MPS4200 into a working environment.
Applications
The MPS4200 is a versatile scanner, designed for a wide range of applications. It was specifically designed for use in wind tunnel and flight test applications where operational conditions are very space constrained and pressures to do not exceed 100psi. It is also ideal for use in small supersonic wind tunnel models, where the scanner can be installed in the model or test article. This allows the tubing lengths from the testing ports to the module to be as short as possible. The user-friendly interface, simple operation, and low overhead requirements also make it ideal for educational facilities, small research and development projects, automotive testing, and other quick tests with large channel counts.
The MPS4200 can be used in applications such as:
- Low pressure wind tunnel studies
- Boundary layer measurements
- Automotive aerodynamic studies (wind tunnel or on-car)
- Wind and building engineering
- Flight performance and testing
- Educational and research facilities
- And many more
