Ideal for highly precise measurements

MX238B’s ultra‑high accuracy and long-term stable data acquisition – through its patented background calibration – is perfect for static and quasi‑static measurements that require superior stability and reliability. Its portable and compact design and exceptional robustness, with strong immunity to electromagnetic interference and temperature influences, makes the MX238B suitable for both laboratory and portable use whether performing on-site servicing or other reference measurement tasks.

Typical applications

• Calibration laboratories and reference chains for torque, force, and pressure transducers
• Wind tunnels and other research environments where stable, low‑noise data is critical
• Static and quasi‑static measurements in advanced testing and development setups
• Portable field servicing requiring compact yet laboratory‑grade measurement performance

High‑performance strain gauge measurements

The MX238B measures signals from full‑bridge transducers, providing exceptional resolution and long‑term stability. Its carrier‑frequency excitation, 24‑bit conversion, and background calibration ensure clean, drift‑free, high‑precision readings—even in electrically noisy environments.

Ready for any system architecture

With built-in TEDS support that provides automatic transducer identification, flexible parameterization and minimal wiring, setup is nearly effortless setup. System integration is based on the QuantumX modular architecture for truly scalable, synchronized measurement systems with FireWire and Ethernet PTPv2 support. As part of the QuantumX platform, MX238B becomes a flexible building block that can be synchronously expanded with a multitude of QuantumX modules.

When you add in catman^® software for data recording and data analysis, you achieve a true plug‑and‑measure setup where torque, force, pressure data can be immediately visualized, stored or digitally forwarded.

MX238B can be purchased as stand-alone or part of a software/hardware bundle.
