DLI Engineering products employ the most advanced vibration data collection technology and intelligent machine condition assessment software available. DLI's unique approach is a result of more than 38 years of experience developing proven techniques.
DCA-20/IS Intrisically Safe Data Collector

The DCA-20/IS allows the user to perform vibration analysis and predictive maintenance in hazardous areas such as those commonly found in the petrochemical industry and mines.

The DLI Watchman® DCA-20/IS Data Collector / Real Time Analyzer has been designed specifically for predictive maintenance and machine condition monitoring.

Intrinsically Safe

The DCA-20/IS allows the user to perform vibration analysis and predictive maintenance in hazardous areas such as those commonly found in the petrochemical industry and mines.

The DCA-20/IS has been CENELEC certified both Group I (Underground) Eex ia I and Group II (Surface) Eex ia IIC T4. DLI can provide additional IS certification information upon request.

Unit includes a spare battery pack, barcode reader, battery pack charger, PC communications cable, and RS232 interface, shoulder strap, universal power supply and operating manuals.

The DCA-20/IS accepts a variety of sensors, including ICP® accelerometers*, velocity transducers, displacement probes, infrared temperature sensors, DC input, or signals from installed monitoring equipment. With an optional three channel BNC connector, you can input static and dynamic data from nearly limitless sources. *ICP® is a registered trademark of PCB.

The DCA-20 includes a digital signal processing (DSP) microprocessor that operates at a bandwidth of 40 Khz. This translates into rapid data processing and averaging so your data collection is fast and real-time displays do in fact, represent REAL time.

  • requires optional 2 plane Balancing Program on PCMCIA Card

    Whether for effortless data collection or comprehensive analysis as a highly functional real-time analyzer, the DCA-20/IS will meet the task. Configure the data collector with a single channel sensor and magnetic mount, or upgrade to a quick connect, fixed mount, triaxial sensor. Use the DCA-20/IS trigger input to perform a number of more advanced measurements, such as:

  • Real-time spectral, time or phase measurements
  • Precision, in-place dynamic rotor balancing*
  • Time synchronous averaging
  • Order normalized data

    Intrinsic Safe Certification

  • Group I (Underground): Eex ia I
  • Group II (Surface): Eex ia IIC T4
  • Apparatus certificates under CENELEC Standards: EN50014 and EN50020
  • System certificates under CENELEC Standards: EN50014 and EN50039

    The DCA-20/IS features:

  • DLI Engineering's legendary barcode driven data collection
  • Support for both single or triaxial sensors
  • DSP enhanced, real-time analysis.
