SIGNAL CONDITIONER SYSTEMS

Variable Frequency
AP300 Series
Band Pass - Band Reject Filter/Amplifier

Model AP300

Simultaneous Bandpass and Band Reject output for any input signal in the frequency range of 0.1 Hz to 10,000 Hz. Both frequency and bandwidth can be varied continuously. Units can be cascaded for staggered filtering effects. The Bandpass Function. The filter singles out any particular band of frequencies. Gain is preserved at the center frequency of the passband over the complete frequency and bandwidth ranges. A preamplifier stage makes it possible to use the Bandpass output as a tuned amplifier. The Band Reject Function. The filter rejects any particular band of frequencies. Constant gain is preserved throughout the passband over the complete frequency and bandwidth ranges. A large attenuation is provided at the center frequency of the reject band. Maximum Band Reject effect is achieved by adjusting the Null adjust. The preamplifier stage enables unusually low level signal rejection. The Notch Gain Amplifier permits the adjustment of the signal level output independently of the Bandpass Function output.

APPLICATIONS:
Noise reduction in signal processing. Rejection of carrier modulation or line frequency interferences, spectrum analysis.

FIELDS OF APPLICATION:
Sound, Vibration, Physiological measurements. Signal conditioning prior to computer processing.
