High-Speed Combustion Analysis with Kistler Instruments’ Signal Conditioning Platform

February 2020, MARIETTA, GA ~

The Signal Conditioning Platform (SCP) with Ethernet options centralizes equipment configuration and optimizes usability for maximum flexibility. It ensures process reliability and enables early detection of unsafe operating conditions in fixed or mobile high-speed combustion analysis applications.

Flexible System with Centralized Control

Kistler’s network-compatible SCP can be equipped with application-specific measuring modules to accomplish various measuring tasks, for example with the Type 5064C charge amplifier module for piezoelectric sensors or Type 4665B for piezoresistive sensors. The new platform allows virtual linkage of the systems deployed, so all Kistler SCPs can be operated from one centrally controlled PC.

Intuitive GUI for Simple and Quick Data Handling

The Kistler SCP’s intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) provides an overview of all key data, such as measuring module configurations, sensor data and operating times, so that all changes can be made on a single screen for simple and quick data handling. An ‘Export’ function converts the data into various formats to document all the measurement settings applied during the high-speed combustion analysis. Cylinder peak pressure histograms for each sensor can be created at the click of a button while users can immediately detect sensor load and strain, as well as any irregularities.
