CDM-VW305 Analizador dinámico cuerda vibrante 8 canales
Services Available

Resumen

El CDM-VW305 es una interfaz de ocho canales que puede utilizar entre sensores de cuerda vibrante de circuito de bobina simple estándar y dataloggers para permitir intervalos más cortos entre medidas. Con la interfaz CDM-VW305, puede conseguir medidas mucho más rápidas y mejores sin tener que comprar nuevos sensores. Los sensores que suelen utilizarse con el CDM-VW305 son bandas extensométricas, células de carga, transductores de presión, fisurómetros e inclinómetros.

Esta interfaz utiliza un mecanismo de excitación que mantiene el sensor de cuerda vibrante en un estado de vibración continua. La interfaz mide la frecuencia de resonancia de la cuerda entre excitaciones utilizando la tecnología patentada de análisis espectral de cuerda vibrante (VSPECT®). VSPECT® proporciona una resolución de medición muy fina y también limita la influencia del ruido externo al discriminar entre señal y ruido basándose en el contenido de frecuencia. Gracias a esta tecnología, la señal puede transportarse a través de cables más largos, lo que proporciona flexibilidad en la ubicación de los sensores y registradores de datos.

Puede conectar varios módulos CDM-VW305 a un datalogger. El CDM-VW300 es similar a este producto, pero tiene dos canales.

The dynamic vibrating wire measurement technique is protected under U.S. Patent No. 8,671,758, and the vibrating wire spectral-analysis technology (VSPECT®) is protected under U.S. Patent No. 7,779,690.

Descripción detallada

In addition to the dynamic vibrating wire measurement, the CDM-VW305 makes several auxiliary measurements. A static vibrating wire measurement is made once each second, along with the dynamic measurements, which provides finer measurement resolution and greater immunity to external noise sources. The CDM-VW305 includes a thermistor input channel paired with each vibrating wire channel, featuring high-precision 24-bit measurements at a 1 Hz rate. Lastly, a rich set of diagnostic parameters is provided with the vibrating wire data.

The CDM-VW305 has the capability to simplify post-processing of data by computing common values internally. Vibrating wire data can be reported as measured frequency or as the frequency squared with a multiplier and offset applied. The thermistor data is reported as resistance or is converted to degrees Celsius using the thermistor’s Steinhart-Hart coefficients. The CDM-VW305 also can internally compile rainflow histograms from the final data and report the values at user-specified intervals.

Vibrating Wire Inputs

Each channel has two terminals for connecting to the coil of the vibrating wire sensor. Both vibrating wire terminals are labeled VW and the polarity of the wiring is arbitrary. The sensor is excited and measured through the same connections. Sinusoidal excitation is applied for a few cycles of the wire oscillation. The wire is maintained in a continuously vibrating state. Excitation voltage varies automatically to maintain the desired return signal strength.

Thermistor Inputs

Each channel has two terminals for connecting to the thermistor. Both thermistor terminals are labeled T and the polarity of the wiring is arbitrary. The measurement is a half-bridge configuration with the excitation circuitry and completion resistor integrated into the module.

  1. The CDM-VW300 offers two channels for simultaneous reading of two vibrating wire sensors, whereas the CDM-VW305 offers eight channels for simultaneous measurements. Other than the number of channels supported, both models operate identically.

  2. These devices work with vibrating wire strain gages, load cells, pressure transducers, crackmeters, and tiltmeters. Any standard, single-coil circuit vibrating wire sensor should work with these devices.

  3. The frequency outputs generated by the CDM-VW300 or CDM-VW305 can be scaled with known sensor response functions, which are provided by the manufacturer of the sensor. These frequency conversions are used to obtain measurement outputs expressed in the desired engineering units.

  4. Yes. When more than eight channels are needed in a system, multiple CDM-VW300-series devices can be connected to the same datalogger.

    • Each CDM-VW300 device provides two terminals. 
    • Each CDM-VW305 device provides eight terminals.

    Any combination of CDM-VW300 and CDM-VW305 devices can be used to achieve the desired number of total terminals.

    The list below, ordered by datalogger and measurement rate, indicates the maximum number of supported terminals:

    • CR3000, 100 Hz: 8 terminals
    • CR3000, 50 Hz: 24 terminals
    • CR3000, 20 Hz: 48 terminals
       
    • CR1000, 100 Hz: not supported
    • CR1000, 50 Hz: 8 terminals
    • CR1000, 20 Hz: 32 terminals
       
    • CR800-series, 100 Hz: not supported
    • CR800-series, 50 Hz: 8 terminals
    • CR800-series, 20 Hz: 32 terminals
  5. To communicate with CDM devices using the CPI protocol, the CR3000, CR1000, CR850, and CR800 dataloggers require an SC-CPI device. Only one SC-CPI device per data logger is required. It is expected that the design of future Campbell Scientific data logger products will work with CPI-based modules directly.

  6. The communications protocol used by CDM devices is the CAN Peripheral Interface (CPI), which includes methods that are proprietary to Campbell Scientific.
  7. CDM-VW300-series devices can measure vibrating wire sensors at the following rates: 1 Hz, 20Hz, 50Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz, and 333.3 Hz. CDM-VW300-series devices are designed for measurement periods of 1 s or less.

  8. Yes. Specific types of sensor measurements can be examined and evaluated before the system is deployed to a field site. A data logger is not used for this type of evaluation. Connect the CDM-VW300-series device directly to a computer using a USB cable. Using DVWTool software (specialized software included with the CDM-VW300 or CDM-VW305), the outputs of the attached vibrating wire sensors can be observed, and the CDM device can be configured appropriately.

The data logger operating system must be version OS 26 or newer.

Multiplexers

The CDM-VW305 is not designed to work with multiplexers.
