isoLynx® SLX718
Data Logger / Data Acquisition System
SLX718 OVERVIEW
Compact SLX718 instruments combined with Dataforth's miniature SensorLex. 8B isolated analog signal conditioners create the most flexible high performance data logger/data acquisition system on the market.
SLX718 instruments with continuous connection capability
  • Must remain tethered to PC's USB or Ethernet port
  • Use PC's own program and memory to store acquired data
  • Stream data to removable SD memory cards at throughput rates ranging from 4,800 samples per second maximum to 172.8 samples per hour minimum
SLX718 instruments with stand-alone data logging option
  • Built-in multimedia socket accepts standard Secure Digital (SD) memories, which can store acquired data without a connected PC
    - Memories ranging from 16MB to 1GB are supported
  • First in price range to offer data acquisition server capability, allowing stand-alone instruments to locally and independently add data to SD memories
    - Ethernet stand-alone units enable SD memory data to be uploaded via Ethernet interface
  • Stream data to removable SD memory cards at throughput rates ranging from 14,400 samples per second maximum to 6.2 samples per hour minimum
SensorLex™ 8B modules
  • Install up to eight 8B modules - of any 90+ input types - directly into the SLX718 unit, allowing signal conditioning functions to be mixed and precisely matched to each application
  • Each 8B module protects, filters, amplifies, and isolates an input signal, ensuring an advanced signal conditioning solution for nearly any industrial measurement
PC-tethered SLX718 instruments
Designed for use anywhere an instrument can remain connected to a laptop or desktop PC. The SLX718 USB option requires a PC to be local to within 5 meters (15 feet), while the Ethernet option allows the PC to be used either locally or remotely (up to 100 meters without hubs).
Stand-alone SLX718 instruments
Used for the same applications as PC-tethered versions. Specifically designed for those who cannot locate a PC near the instrument and want easy, efficient access to remotely recorded information over their Ethernet LAN.
APPLICATIONS
Data acquisition for monitoring and recording in maintenance, troubleshooting, and quality control, including:
  • Load cells for strain, force, torque
  • Voltage ranging from millivolts to 60V
  • 4-20mA process current loops
  • RTDs and thermocouples
  • In-vehicle automotive testing
  • New product qualification testing
  • Timing and amplitude measurements

PACKAGING
SLX718B with Benchtop Enclosure
Housed in a small 15.11D x 10.57W x 4.06H centimeters (5.95D x 4.16W x 1.6H inches) enclosure consisting of analuminum base, all-steel wraparound and aluminum end plates.
SLX718N with NEMA 4 (IEC 529, IP 66) Enclosure
Housed in an industrial junction-box enclosure designed to protect against harsh industrial environments, the isoLynx® SLX718 system is mounted on standoff legs on a removable 14-gage inner galvanized steel panel. The enclosure is constructed with 16-gage steel and measures 25.44H x 20.32W x 10.16D centimeters (10H x 8W x 4D inches). It is compliant to UL 508 Type 3R, 4, 12, 13; CSA Type 3R, 4, 12, 13; NEMA Type 3R, 4, 12, 13; and IEC 529 and IP 66 standards.
SLX718S Skeleton PCB-Board-Only for OEM/Embedded Use
Consists of fully tested printed circuit boards individually sealed in a conductive poly-bag.

The isoLynx® SLX718 data logger/data acquisition system is best utilized when driven by DATAQ® Instruments’ popular WINDAQ® software. Together, the special features of the SLX718 unit and the 8B isolated signal conditioning modules produce a robust instrument that can be applied to virtually any industrial data acquisition or data logging situation, especially those requiring a rugged, amplified, isolated solution.
