This company has launched its smallest digital-pressure scanner, the picoDAQ. Measuring just 83.4mm by 14.8mm by 9.6mm, the tiny dimensions of the picoDAQ make it ideal for high-accuracy pressure testing in applications where space is limited but precision remains critical. The picoDAQ can deliver up to 0.03% full-scale accuracy output. As a fully configurable smart pressure scanner, the new device can output pressure data in engineering units over Ethernet and Controller Area Network (CAN), using both CAN-FD and ‘classic’ CAN. The picoDAQ makes use of 17 absolute transducers which are thermally compensated and conditioned to provide 16 absolute or differential measurements relative to the one reference port. Due to its rugged outer casing and components that are sealed to IP67, the picoDAQ is especially valuable within product quality testing. — Chell Instruments Ltd., North Walsham, U.K.
