Is this your Scenario…what instrument do you use?

Motorcycle test in operational conditions

Wide range of NVH & Durability tests

Example: Structural dynamic testing

Instrumentation for vibration measurement

Driving in operational conditions (city streets)

Recording acceleration & speed

Post analysis towards a better understanding of dynamic behavior

Choices I have:

Recorder for data acquisition followed by analysis in post processing

(both high & low channel counts)

Impractical to use PC based equipments



High-speed trains & nuclear plants

Typical application for high-end NVH systems with high channel

counts as well as distributed units

One-shot attempt to perform the measurement

Zero risk situation

Choices I have:

High-speed & high-channel count data recorder

• Reliable Recording & Dependable Storage

• Analysis in post processing

Note: tape Recorders are generally used despite low hardware quality

Engineers are moving towards analyzers as they need data validation

during measurement



Proving Ground Vehicle test

Wide range of NVH & Durability tests

Example: Internal noise assessment

Determination of occupant noise signature

Data recording from microphones in correlation with vehicle

conditions & sometime with its position

Data analysis in post processing towards refinement studies

Choices I have:

High-end system for engineering tasks with high channel counts

Analyzer for assessment tasks with low channel counts

Recorder for data acquisition followed by analysis in post

processing (both high & low channel counts)
