USB225 Pro

USB225 Pro delivers high-performance signal conditioning in an ultra-compact form factor, replacing traditional analog electronics and data acquisition systems. Featuring high resolution, ultra-low non-linearity, and selectable sampling rates, this streamlined device delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability in both dynamic and precision-critical applications. Live fault detection provides real-time feedback on wiring, sensor connection, and out of range temperature issues, helping ensure reliable measurements, longer uptime, and safer operation. With an input range up to 16 mV/V, USB225 Pro supports a wide variety of sensors across load, torque, pressure, and displacement measurement applications. Powered via USB, it connects directly to a computer for quick, plug and play setup, enabling real-time data acquisition and display.

Selectable Sampling Rates

Provides 12 selectable sampling rates ranging from 2.5 SPS to 4,800 SPS, enabling reliable measurements across a wide range of applications. Lower rates maximize noise filtering and stability for static measurements, while higher rates allow the system to capture dynamic behavior and transient events with high fidelity.

Unparalleled Precision

Delivers exceptional measurement performance with a Noise-Free Resolution (NFR) of up to 20 bits and non-linearity as low as ±0.002% of full scale, ensuring highly accurate readings even for very small signal variations. This level of precision enables capture of subtle changes in strain-gauge sensor outputs while minimizing measurement error, making it well suited for demanding force, torque, and pressure measurement applications.

Access Data Your Way

Instantly visualize sensor data and log measurements through FUTEK SENSIT application, or access data directly through API libraries and DLLs, with support for Python, C++, and C#. Seamless LabVIEW integration is also available. Whether using SENSIT or integrating with your own platform, the USB225 Pro makes it easy to acquire and manage sensor data.

Calibrated for Maximum Performance

Maximize measurement accuracy and performance by calibrating your sensor and USB225 Pro together. Standalone calibration of the USB225 Pro or third-party sensors is also available in our state-of-the-art in-house lab. All calibrations are NIST-traceable and performed in accordance with ANSI Z540-1 and ISO 17025 best practices. A2LA-accredited calibration is available for regulated applications requiring formal certification.

Multiple Fault Detection

Provides live fault detection and health checks for wiring, sensor connection, and out-of-range temperature issues, helping maintain data integrity, maximize system uptime, and protect system components. On-board temperature measurement alerts users when the device operates outside its specified range of –4°F to 175°F (–20°C to 80°C).

Durability & Reliability

Built to IPC Class III standards and housed in a rugged metal enclosure, the PCB assembly delivers long-term stability and dependable performance in harsh environments.
