Description
The PCI-4472 is a PC-based Dynamic Signal Analyzer (DSA) manufactured by National Instruments. This device, with part numbers including 187611J-01L, 778348-01, and 187611F-02, is specialized in sound and vibration measurement and analysis. It is an 8-Channel sound and vibration device, designed for a wide range of applications such as pass-by noise, noise and vibration diagnostics, structural vibration, audio test and measurement, telecommunications testing, sound power, and machine condition monitoring.
The device supports Pretrigger and Posttrigger modes and comes equipped with 5 VTTL/CMOS-compatible outer digital trigger types, ensuring flexible and precise data acquisition sessions. One of the standout features of the PCI-4472 is its capability to be synchronized with several other NI-447x devices, allowing for complex and extensive measurement setups.
From a software perspective, it is compatible with NI DAQmx, the Sound and Vibration Toolkit, and more, offering versatile options for data analysis and processing. Calibration services are available, including options for NIST accredited calibrations through a third party, ensuring that the device maintains its accuracy and reliability over time.
Moreover, National Instruments has announced the mature status of the PCI-4472, but it remains available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves, ensuring long-term support and availability for users of this sophisticated sound and vibration measurement device.
