VTI Instruments Corporation has been selected to deliver the dynamic signal analysis (DSA) instrumentation solution for NASA Plum Brook's Reverberant Acoustic Test Facility (RATF).
RATF houses the world's largest Space Environment Simulation Chamber and will use VTI's VT1432B high-performance digitiser plus DSP, along with integrated arbitrary waveform generation (ARB) capability, as part of m+p international's Digital Acoustic Control System (DACS).
The DACS will be used to configure and control servo-hydraulic and electromagnetic modulators, and acquire data from up to 24 individual microphones.
"We are excited to team with m+p international and play such a pivotal role in NASA's space vehicle test future," Jon Semancik, VTI's Director of Marketing, said.
"The EX1432B Series is the gold standard for DSA applications worldwide, and a perfect fit for this application."
The VT1432B series delivers hardware performance and flexibility for the most demanding DSA applications.
Scalable onboard DSPs, multi-channel independent 24-bit digitisers, and comprehensive transducer signal conditioning ensure hig-precision, gap-free data.
VTI's DSA solutions are suited to address a wide range of acoustic control and test, machine condition monitoring, noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), rotating machinery, structural test, vibration control, and modal test applications.
VTI is represented in Australia by TekMark Australia.
