VS-25 Vibration System

Standalone six-degree-of-freedom repetitive shock vibration system with a 60 × 60 in table, ready to run in its sound enclosure. The same table as the VTC-25 HALT/HASS chamber. Designed, built and supported in Allegan, Michigan.

Control and instrumentation

Control
Watlow controller with Hanse ChamberCore software, supplied with the system: programmable vibration ramps, GRMS level and test duration; can be synchronized with a chamber's temperature controller
GRMS control
From one accelerometer or the average of several, written straight to the Watlow controller for closed-loop control
ChamberFFT (option)
Vibration analysis on up to 16 IEPE accelerometer channels at 25,600 samples per second

Safety

Interlock connection
Shuts down vibration
Emergency power off
EPO shuts off system operation

Options

  • Ultra-Hi vibration — twice the pneumatic vibrators, for higher vibration performance.
  • More accelerometer channels — in groups of four, up to sixteen, with ChamberFFT.
  • More accelerometers — Dytran 3030B5 with cable, and three-axis mounting blocks.
  • Thermocouple inputs — 14 more product thermocouples, for 16 monitored and logged in ChamberCore.
  • Fixtures — designed for your product, Metric or English layout.
  • Enclosure top — manual or automatic opening, with ports or view windows.
  • Chamber integration — the same table built into a VTC chamber, or supplied as a VK kit for a chamber you own.

Warranty and support

  • 3-year warranty on vibrators and vibration tables.
  • 1-year equipment warranty from shipment: parts and labor for the first 90 days, then parts at no cost other than travel.
  • Supported for the long term — including controller retrofits for older systems.
  • Built in Allegan, Michigan — designed, fabricated and supported in the US since 1993.
