Product Overview

SLICE IP68 is a modular data acquisition system featuring unparalleled flexibility, technology and reliability in an ultra small
form factor. Based on the proven architecture of SLICE MICRO, the SLICE IP68 system is engineered to for even more extreme test environments.
SLICE makes it easy to systems in 3-channel increments by stacking layers with different sensor input configurations.
Waterproof, miniature, modular SLICE IP68 data acquisition systems are IP68 rated for water and dust ingress. SLICE IP68 supports a variety of external sensors, includes full signal conditioning and writes data directly to flash memory.
