SG-Link®-MIL-XR Hardened Extended Range Wireless Strain and Accelerometer Node
The SG-Link® -MIL-XR integrates complete strain gauge signal conditioning, embedded processing and wireless communications in a small form factor that can be mounted directly over a strain gauge. It supports conventional bonded foil, piezo-resistive, and modular strain gauges, as well as external wheatstone bridge type sensors. Also including a triaxial accelerometer and temperature sensor, the SG-Link® -MIL-XR provides flexible wireless data acquisition within a scalable network of sensor nodes at distances up to 2 km.
SG-Link® -MIL-XR collects and relays data in demanding applications requiring MIL-STD instrumentation components. WSDA®-MIL coordinates data collection from all wireless sensor nodes and users can easily program each node on the network for simultaneous, periodic, or burst mode sampling with Node Commander® software, which automatically configures network radio communications to maximize the aggregate sample rate.
