DataFlex-515 provides real-time playback, display and analysis, and a sustained, continuous recording speed of up to 256,000 samples per second.

July 1, 2009 - DSPCon introduced the DataFlex-515 real-time data recorders. DataFlex-515 weighs less than 20 lb, features real-time playback, display and analysis, and provides a sustained, continuous recording speed of up to 256,000 samples per second. The system is compatible with a variety of common file formats, including DATX/CATS, UFF58, CSV, ATI and others, and features dual 500 Gbyte hard disk drives. Two "hot-swappable," dual-lithium-ion battery packs provide a total of 100 watts of output power and 190-watt-hours of capacity resulting in a four hours of continuous operation in the field. Positioned as a portable powerhouse for field-intensive applications, the DataFlex-515 features a flame-retardant design with fully integrated keyboard and 15-inch, anti-glare screen.

Its ease of set-up in the field, along with its rugged outer housing, robust safety features, and extended battery life make it an ideal solution for data and video recording of seismic, flight line, in-flight, and factory floor applications. DataFlex-515 models come complete as fully-integrated, PC-based, one-box solutions featuring an open-standards, non-proprietary design architecture, standard 32-channel capacity, a bandwidth of up to 115 kHz and a fully integrated software suite that includes MultiScope. MultiScope combines the functionality of 32 oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers in one convenient package to deliver real-time, in-line and post-test analysis for a variety of rotating machinery, acoustic frequency, shock and vibration applications.
