SINUS Messtechnik Made in Germnay
Tornado

Overview

This compact, mobile measuring station is ideally suited for both stationary and mobile use. Special features are the fan-less design and the 3-way power supply from AC, DC and battery (V-mount battery on the back of the device for up to 6 hours of autonomous operation).

The station allows installation of up to four Apollo PCI-Express measuring cards. Additional connectors for external GPS system synchronisation and 8x SLOW channels are available.

The Tornado measurement system features an extremely robust design at a moderate weight. The folding carrying handle at the top is suited for transport and installation of the instrument in the filed (e. g. in a vehicle).

The Tornado measurement system is especially well suited for:

  • Data acquisition and analysis
  • Customized multi-channel vibro-acoustic measuring instruments
  • Sound power measurements
  • Noise and vibration monitoring
  • Machinery and equipment status monitoring
  • Acoustic camera
  • Quality assurance
  • Research and development

The Tornado measurement system is fully compatible with the type-approved Soundbook_MK2 measurement system.
