Yokogawa AR1100

The Yokogawa AR1100 is a discontinued multi-function analyzing recorder designed for simultaneous waveform measurement, analysis, computation, display, memory storage, and print-out in high-speed industrial and laboratory environments. This instrument integrates 8 isolated analog input channels with 14-bit ADC resolution and thermocouple measurement capability, delivering up to 100 kS/s sampling across configurable memory depths of 64 kwords/channel or 512 kwords/channel—ideal for capturing single-shot transient phenomena over extended observation windows.
