DS-50A Dynamic DAQ System

High-Speed, High-Accuracy Strain Measurement for Structural & Dynamic Testing

The DS-50A is a high-performance multichannel DAQ system designed for dynamic strain measurement across a range of industrial and research applications. Built for precision, speed, and scalability, the DS-50A is ideal for structural monitoring, automotive fatigue testing, vibration analysis, and infrastructure health diagnostics.

Developed using strain gauge bridge-based technology, this system allows direct input from quarter, half, and full-bridge configurations, enabling flexible connection of various sensor types such as strain gauges, LVDTs, load cells, and thermocouples.
