PRODUCT GUIDE<br />
One Product, Many Applications<br />
ACRA CONTROL’s flexible data acquisition systems are used in a wide range of applications including<br />
Flight Test <strong>Instrumentation</strong><br />
ACRA CONTROL provides the most widely-installed<br />
Flight Test <strong>Instrumentation</strong> (FTI) system in the world<br />
with more flight hours than any other. Proven COTS<br />
hardware, short delivery times, tightly integrated<br />
software and a large dedicated team of application<br />
engineers lowers risk and saves time on FTI projects.<br />
Aircraft Usage Monitoring<br />
The rugged, compact recorder systems from ACRA<br />
CONTROL benefit aircraft usage monitoring<br />
applications with their flexible interface support and<br />
optional built-in test and solid-state recording. Open<br />
data formats facilitate easy data export to data<br />
analysis software.<br />
Remote Data Concentrator<br />
The KAM-500’s rugged construction and high channel<br />
count to size ratio makes it perfect for acquiring data<br />
from remote locations for delivery to a central point<br />
over a single cable yielding savings in cable weight<br />
and reducing installation design complexity.<br />
Launch Vehicle <strong>Instrumentation</strong><br />
The KAM-500 has proven its reliability and<br />
performance on launch vehicle applications such as<br />
United Launch Alliance’s Delta II and SpaceX’s Falcon<br />
9. Its design is suitable due to its small size, high<br />
channel density and launcher specific benefits such as<br />
transmission black-out buffers for delayed data<br />
transmission.<br />
Flight Data <strong>Acquisition</strong> for Crash Recorders<br />
The KAM-500’s high reliability, live on power-up<br />
functionality and flexible interface support ensures<br />
highly configured systems can be built and later<br />
modified using off the shelf modules that remove the<br />
cost of bespoke designs.<br />
Communications Interface Unit (CIU) for<br />
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)<br />
The KAM-500 can act as a CIU, interfacing between<br />
the Air Data Terminal (ADT) and a host of platform<br />
and payload electronics. Data translation, signal<br />
processing and conditioning, encoding / decoding and<br />
recording can all be delivered in a single, adaptable<br />
unit.<br />
