EvoScann® P16-A is a highly-miniaturised pressure scanner designed speciﬁcally to meet the stringent demands of theaerodynamic testing industry where development is rapid and continuous. Utilising the latest in miniature scannertechnology, P16-A is at the forefront of pressure measurement in challenging aerodynamic locations. The P16-A has been
designed, from the start, with physical size, weight, accuracy and functionality in-mind and is available in a variety of
conﬁgurations for multiple pressure channels.
SMALL and LIGHT
Weighing-in at <18g and with compact dimensions, the EvoScann® P16-A can be located within the tightest of spaces whererapid pressure mapping is needed, enabling aerodynamicists and engineers to quickly gather valuable data that has neverbeen easy to access before. Measurement without compromise.
PLUG and PLAY
Using the latest high-speed data communications technology, EvoScann® P16-A is a pressure measurement andengineering unit converter in one package. With no requirement for external signal conditioning, the EvoScann® P16-A
transmits accurate, fast data, in engineering units, directly to the test article’s central processing unit. Using a single cable toprovide the power and transmit the data and with a choice of industry-standard connectors, the EvoScann® P16-A scanner isready to plug-and-play, producing high-speed synchronous data within seconds of connection.
ROBUSTEvoScann® P16-A is designed to be insigniﬁcantly light, has integral impact and splash-protection and can be ﬁtted into thesmallest of aerofoil or aerodynamic proﬁles with minimal external inﬂuences. A high maximum operating temperature meansthat even use in proximity to hot vehicle parts is possible, extending measurement to the most critical areas.
ACCURATE
Sixteen high-performance piezo-resistive pressure sensors ensure the highest accuracy and measurement of a complete
aero section in one compact device. EvoScann® P16-A scanners can be supplied in Absolute or calculated Diﬀerential modes
across a wide selection of pressure ranges, including custom ranges. Integrated temperature sensors provide useful data,
but also apply temperature correction to every pressure sensor, at source, to ensure optimal performance and minimal
ambient temperature eﬀects.
Complementing the sensor is the widest range of pressure scanner accessories. Tubulations, tubing and tools help the user
integrate EvoScann® P16-A quickly and eﬀectively into the test article, enabling measurement and data acquisition to start
quickly, making eﬃcient use of expensive testing time and resources.
