Highlights
IP68 Environmental Protection
Designed for wet, dusty, and submerged conditions, the SLICE IP68 data acquisition system is rated for dust & water ingress (20 meters for up to 10 hours).
Modular Waterproof Architecture
SLICE IP68 systems are configurable with a BASE module and stackable sensor module layers, allowing engineers to configure the channel mix needed while maintaining a rugged sealed platform. Multiple stacks can be daisy-chained for high-channel count tests.
Standalone Onboard Recording
Designed to embed in or on the test article, SLICE IP68 collects reliable data in harsh test environments where cabling, connectors, or external equipment are at risk from the elements.
Field-Ready Power Options
Optional IP68 power accessories support complete portable deployments for extended outdoor and remote testing.
Applications
SLICE IP68 is built for field and outdoor testing where ingress protection matters as much as measurement quality. It brings onboard recording, flexible channel scaling, and rugged environmental performance to tests involving water, debris, and unpredictable test conditions.
