Cyclone Boom

C2I-01E

Cyclone Boom

Overall Dimensions 50mm (2in) diameter, 140mm (5.5in)

Compatible Sensors ICP® blast pressure pencil probe series by PCB Piezotronics.

Purpose This tool allows for sensors to be placed on a test stand without the limit or hassle of cables. An instrumentation team can deploy unlimited sensors without the concerns of standard instrumentation. 100ft is a recommended limit for even the best cables (Reference).

Overview

The Cyclone Boom product is a measurement system intended to provide 1 MSPS (mega-sample-per-second) ADC capture of a Class 1 sensor.
