PQ-ANALYST
PLACID PQ Analyst Sound and Vibration Tool
PLACID PQ Analyst is acquisition and analysis software for sound and vibration measurement. It provides real-time FFT, spectrogram display and octave analysis, together with a sound level meter module offering A, C and Linear frequency weighting to IEC. Results export to CSV for reporting and further processing. PQ Analyst drives the PLACID PQ1601 and PQ401 acquisition hardware, turning a laptop and a measurement microphone or accelerometer into a complete analysis chain. Placid Asia is the authorized distributor for Thailand and ASEAN.
PQ441-C
PLACID PQ441-C 4-Channel Signal Conditioner
The PLACID PQ441-C is a four-channel signal conditioner and data acquisition unit for sound and vibration measurement. A signal conditioner supplies sensor power, sets gain and filters the signal before digitisation, which is what allows microphones, accelerometers and plain voltage sources to be mixed on one measurement without each needing its own front end. Four channels is the practical minimum for intensity probes, impedance tube work to ISO 10534-2 and small modal setups. The PQ441-C runs with PLACID PQ Analyst software for real-time FFT, spectrogram and octave analysis with CSV export. Full specifications are provided with the quotation. Placid Asia is the authorized distributor for Thailand and ASEAN.
PQ1601
PLACID PQ1601 16-Channel USB DAQ
The PLACID PQ1601 is a 16-channel BNC data acquisition unit connected over USB. Selectable gain of x1, x10 and x100 and a 4 mA IEPE supply on every channel allow microphones, accelerometers and plain voltage signals to be mixed in one measurement. Sampling runs from 1 to 100 kHz with 112 dB of dynamic range. It is the acquisition front end for the PLACID PQ Analyst software and suits multi-point sound and vibration measurement, sound power arrays and laboratory work. Placid Asia is the authorized distributor for Thailand and ASEAN.
PQ401-AB
PLACID PQ401-A/B Four-Channel Data Acquisition Device | 24-bit DAQ with SDK for MATLAB, C++, C#, Python
The PQ401-A/B is a four-channel data collection device with a high sampling rate and compact size. It supports both IEPE and voltage input methods, adopts the mature TCP/IP protocol, and comes with a built-in SD card. Paired with PQ Analyst software for efficient data acquisition and analysis. Open SDK for C, C#, MATLAB, Python — ideal for university research labs, PhD thesis work, and R&D departments. Two variants: PQ401-A (128kHz) and PQ401-B (196kHz). 24-bit resolution, 114 dB dynamic range, 520g portable design.
