Measurements are not limited to just classic analog and digital signals. Please find further detailed information to
expand your system in the chapter “Components”.
Needed to complete the system
DEWE-ORION “A/D Boards” offer simultaneous sampled
analog inputs, synchronous digital I/Os, high-performance
counters and high-speed CAN interfaces. DAQP or MDAQ
signal amplifiers and software are needed as well.

DEWE-3020
Most flexible model, prepared for DAQP isolated analog input
amplifier modules. DAQP conditioners offer highest bandwidth, great accuracy, different input ranges and integrated
filters. Besides the single channel modularity – a module easily can be changed by the user at any time – the main advantage of these modules is the high galvanic isolation which
ensures safe measurements, high quality results and make
them almost indestructible. See chapter “Signal Conditioning”
for details.

In case a 16 channel DEWE-ORION series A/D board is
installed inside the DEWE-3020, the system can be expanded
to 16 isolated DAQP modules easily. Just add a DEWE-30-8EXP expansion unit by a convenient single cable connection.

Adding more counters or digital inputs
Especially many automotive applications require multiple
counter inputs, e.g. for connecting wheel pulse transducers.
By choosing a suitable DEWE-ORION series A/D board up to
10 counters per card are available. The connectors for attaching the sensors are placed on the sidepanel near the analog
inputs.

All-In-One
Option 3020-PS-BAT
Optional battery power supply
This option turns your DEWE-3020 into a fully battery powered instrument. The hotswappable batteries guarantee continuous operation without an external power
source. The instrument provides 2 slots for BAT-95WH batteries and can be operated for up to ~3 hours with 2 batteries installed. Since this time depends a lot on
the system configuration a DEWESoft plugin shows the battery status directly in
the software. Also alarm conditions can be set and the battery parameters can be
displayed as additional measurement channels. Operating temperature is limited to
0 .. 45° C when batteries are charged.
Option 3020-DC-UPS
This option changes the power supply of the instrument to a wide range 10 .. 32 VDC
input with internal UPS battery for approx. 5 minutes. That power supply is ideally
suited for automotive applications as it can handle 12 VDC as well as 24 VDC and the
internal battery nicely bridges the voltage drop during start of the engine.
DEWE-UPS-300-DC
The DEWE-UPS-300-DC is an external DC uninterruptible power supply with up to
four internal high capacity batteries. It can be used to power instruments with wide
range DC input for hours. A typical DEWE-3020 with option 3020-DC-UPS can be
operated for approx. 5 hours using DEWE-UPS-300-DC. In addition the batteries are
hot-swappable and so enable you to run the instrument infinitely by changing batteries every few hours. External battery chargers are available, too. If the DEWE-UPS300-DC is externally powered it also serves as a multi-battery charger.

Channel Expansion
Signal conditioning for slow signals is added by connecting EPAD2 series modules
to the systems EPAD interface.
For expanding the number of dynamic channels there some choices:
Analog cable: Additional A/D boards
are installed into the basic instrument
and external signal conditioning, e.g.
DAQ modules in a DEWE-30 chassis,
is connected by means of an analog
signal cable.

PCI expansion: A PCI-HOST card is
installed into the basic instrument and
external signal conditioning, e.g. DAQ
modules in a DEWE-50 chassis, is connected by means of a PCI cable.
DEWE-NET: Several instruments are connected via Ethernet. Each unit requires
an ORION-SYNC option. For short distances a sync cable is used if the units
are far from each other a sync interface
like DEWE-CLOCK is used.
