Qamp measurement amplifier used for low-noise vibro-acoustic testing

Measurement amplifier - Qamp

The Qsources Qamp is a high accuracy measurement amplifier, intended for use in combination with various shakers and sound sources. The Simcenter Qsources sound sources and shakers are all provided with a protection module, or an internal protection, and all these can be combined with the Qamp power amplifier.

The lever controlled operation of the Qamp is proven to be highly efficient and intuitive. The inboard high pass filter allows to adapt broadband pink or white noise to an optimal range for a specific shaker or sound source.

The Qamp provides a high efficiency and effective heat radiation for cooling and do not use a ventilator making all very low-noise amplifiers, which is essential for many (vibro)acoustic measurements.
