Explore the Application of the Test and Measurement in the Education Industry


The ability to count and measure things is key to the human race’s success. Without the capability to perform accurate measurements, the world as we know it would simply not exist. For example, there would be no electric lighting or heating because there would be no electricity. Similarly, there would be no radios and televisions, and no movies called Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. There would be no movies at all… or planes… or trains… or automobiles.

Industry Pursues Flexible Combination of Energy Sources


The road to a green-energy future is a long and winding one. Much progress has been made in using renewable resources such as wind, but many twists and turns lie ahead. Natural gas will continue to have a role to play, and small modular reactors (SMRs) offer energy-source flexibility and overcome the disadvantages of conventional nuclear plants. As the energy industry plots optimal paths forward, it must take advantage of innovations ranging from sophisticated CAD tools and digital twins to accurate, reliable data-acquisition systems.

IEPE Interface from VTI Maximizes Sensor Performance

August 7, 2019

Many accelerometers used for measuring vibration include a built-in preamplifier to transform the high impedance charge output of the piezoelectric sensor into a low impedance voltage signal, typically 100-300 ohms, that can be transmitted over longer distances. To power this preamplifier, many VTI Instruments products provide an interface that complies with the Integrated Electronics Piezo Electric, or IEPE standard. Using this standard interface ensures that you can connect sensors with an IEPE interface to a VTI instrument and get good results.
