For Immediate Release:
Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA: - Corsa Instruments,
Inc., developer of data acquisition products used to optimize
vehicle and driver performance, announces the first expansion
modules to complement the Corsa Data Logger on-board data acquisition
systems. These expansion modules allow Corsa to deliver
complete, integrated, data acquisition systems for every
type of competitive motor sports. These accessory modules
all connect to the Corsa Data Logger via the CorsaBus expansion
connector.
The EZ-TK8 module accommodates up to 8 standard type “K”
thermocouples and features built-in cold junction compensation,
calibration, and linearization. Broken thermocouples are
also automatically detected by the system. If more than
8 temperature channels are needed, an additional EZ-TK8 module
can be added to make 16 thermocouple channels. Each EZ-TK8
also provides two additional digital (speed) data acquisition
channels for the system.
The EZ-ACCEL module provides 1, 2, or 3 accelerometers,
depending on your requirements. Each accelerometer is capable
of measuring plus or minus 5 g’s. The solid-state
accelerometers allow users to directly measure acceleration,
cornering forces, g loads from banked tracks, and more.
Like the EZ-TK8, the EZ-ACCEL provides 2 additional RPM
data channels.
The EZ-AFR module provides one or two channels of true
wideband air fuel ratio measurement. With this tool you
can record the exact fuel-air mixture your engine is getting
at each moment on the track. This is incredibly helpful
for tuning carburetors or injection systems. Unlike conventional
"O2" sensors, the EZ-AFR provides an accurate
reading under all racing conditions. The EZ-AFR works with
all fuel types including alcohol and leaded or unleaded
gasoline, and works with nitrous systems as well.
Corsa's data acquisition systems collect and record data
for tuning your performance vehicle’s engine, gearbox,
or chassis.The one click, wireless, data download
feature and WinCorsa data analysis software simplifies getting
the data “out of the box” and into your racing
set-up. In addition to the logger and accessory modules,
Corsa supplies a wide variety of sensors, selected data
display products, and a lap timer with trackside beacon.
Data acquisition can be the critical tool in troubleshooting
or setting up your vehicle. Many winning teams have discovered
that feedback from data acquisition systems improves both
vehicle and driver performance. For price and availability
