The iQx-100 eliminates the need for multiple instruments to collect and synchronize different air measurements. With connected sensors, the iQx-100 collects air data around and across circuit cards and assemblies, pitot tubes, orifice plates, Venturi tubes and other hardware for thermal management studies.
The instrument is supplied with 8 velocity sensors, 2 differential air pressure sensors, 4 J-type thermocouples, and a humidity sensor. Collected data is managed by the instrument’s iSTAGE-X program, the unique LabVIEW-based operating software. With the single instrument and software, there are no data collection errors from measurement time lapses or transience that can occur using multiple systems. The benchtop iQx-100 connects to a PC via USB for data transfer.
