ITA-100 Series On-line Vibration Data Acquisition Systems

The ITA-100 series comprises two high-performance data acquisition systems for vibration-based measurement applications. The ITA-110 is a 16-channel multiplexed unit for low-cost machinery surveillance while the ITA-120 has 8 simultaneous channels for high-speed complex machinery monitoring. Both devices are on the same mechanical format and have common communication features.

Both devices can accommodate standard IEPE accelerometers with an independent accelerometer power source per channel. Alternatively, input channels can be configured as DC or AC coupled inputs by jumper setting. This allows accelerometers with temperature output to be connected directly to the units enabling vibration, bearing condition and bearing temperature to be measured.

Bandwidths up to 40kHz are accommodated with 24-bit resolution. Flexible trigger and tacho functions are available, enabling pre- and post-trigger and order analysis to be performed. The gated acquisition is available ensuring that readings are taken when a machine is running. The simultaneous sampling features of the ITA-120 enables multiple orbit traces to be gathered. Both devices communicate over a standard 100BaseT Ethernet LAN or via 802.11b/g/n WLAN network. Enclosures sealed to IP66/Nema4X with power supply are available. The ITA-100 series replaces the ITA-1 which has been the workhorse data acquisition unit for many monitoring applications with thousands installed around the world.
