SNAP
Maker:Ritec
Within the RAM-5000 series the SNAP system has been developed specifically for research on non-linear acoustic phenomena. Some examples of important applications include: metal fatigue, micro cracking, bond strength of adhesives, metal embrittlement, and properties of coatings. The RITEC SNAP incorporates a number of unique circuits designed to facilitate the determination of these properties using a variety of techniques. A standard SNAP system consists of the following modules. However, specific adaptations to your special measurement needs are possible. Please do not hesitate to contact us.
Module | Number | Function |
Gated Amplifier Unit | 2 | Each unit can be individually set to a specific frequency. The delay and the phase between the bursts can be set. |
Timing Unit | 1 | Timing of the pulse burst and setting of the receiver gate. |
Synthesizer Unit | 3 | For high resolution frequency control and the ability for rapid frequency sweeps. |
Phase Detector | 1 | Phase sensitive superheterodyne receiver to improve the signal detection in noisy environments. |
Integrator Unit | 1 | Gated integrators for precise measurement of phase and amplitude. |
