Measuring System monitors Vehicle Power Consumption May 20, 2008
The KLARI-CORD2 module tests and records power consumption and battery charge data in automotive applications at ambient temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C. An auto-ranging, 16-bit measuring system, it measures dc from mA to several kA and can simultaneously measure voltages and temperatures via external sensors. Measurements are stored on an integrated SD card and may also be output via CAN bus and RS232 interfaces. Optimized for long-duration measurements, the module's power consumption is typically under 3 mA with a 12V supply. The module comes in an 85 mm x 110 mm x 35 mm IP65 metal housing and includes an integrated 256-MB SD card, CD documentation, and configuration and display software. Available from stock, price for the KLARI-CORD2 is $3,444. SAELIG CO., Pittsford, NY. (888) 772-3544.
