The new QuantumX MX809B module provides eight channels for the measurement of temperatures and voltages at a high potential. Every channel supports all customary thermocouples such as type K, J, N, T, E, and many others as well as, in general, voltages in the range of +/- 5 V. The module offers an innovative insulation concept to meet all safety requirements: Double-insulated measuring leads and standard thermo Mini connectors (IEC, ANSI) as well as a patented contact protection and safety concept (insulating cap) prevent direct contact with hazardous live parts to ensure highly reliable measurement.
Typical fields of applications for the MX809B include the testing and analysis of electric motors, generators, rectifiers or inverters, chargers, and, in particular, energy storage systems (high-voltage batteries) and fuel cells. In battery tests, the amplifier allows for precise measurement of minimal cell voltages and temperatures at a potential of up to 1,000 V. Safety is guaranteed even with voltage peaks of up to 2,400 V. Other modules of the QuantumX series can be added as desired. The complete system is ideally suited for use in the field and in the laboratory.
