Versatile Instrument Intelligence Coupled with Outstanding Measurement Accuracy

The ultimate quality of any electronic measurement depends on how the "raw" measurement signal is handled.  Based on over 47 years' experience in the field of ANALOG SIGNAL CONDITIONING, Daytronic instruments perform all required conditioning tasks—including per-channel analog and digital filtering, A/D conversion, scaling, and linearizing—to ensure true, noise-free, drift-free measurement results, even in the face of substantial dynamic content.

Each instrument's conditioning characteristics are optimized for a particular type of transducer input (see Instrument Models for Specific Transducers, below). 

These "intelligent" instruments do much more than just signal conditioning.  Except for the 5D Series of simple conditioning "blocks," each instrument series is capable of evaluating acquired data and initiating necessary actions for REAL-TIME PROCESS CONTROL.

The more sophisticated 4000 Series instruments can also perform a wide range of SIGNAL PROCESSING functions, including cross-channel calculations for ON-LINE SPC.  In addition, they can be easily programmed by the operator to automatically execute a sequence of standard functions on detection of a given process condition or event.

2000 Series, 3KPlus Sereis, 3500 Series, and 4000 Series instruments can serve as high-speed COMPUTER OR PLC "FRONT ENDS"—in both single-node and multinode (network) environments.  As such, they are completely "STAND-ALONE."  Each instrument is independently responsible for all of its own local data acquisition and control tasks, providing the supervisory host device with finished measurement answers whenever this data is requested.
