Description
The 781632-01 is part of the C Series Specialty Modules, specifically the NI-9467 model. It is designed as a GPS Time Synchronization Module for C Series, offering precise timekeeping capabilities essential for a variety of applications. These applications include power quality assessment, wind farm monitoring, structural health monitoring, and electrical grid Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs).
This module is equipped with an active GPS antenna that requires +5 VDC or 30 mA max power and connects via an SMA female antenna connector type. It is compatible with CompactRIO systems and supports the NI FPGA Timekeeper for enhanced performance and reliability. Despite its advanced features, it does not support mobile applications.
With an input impedance of 50 ohms, the NI-9467 is efficient in power consumption, operating up to 150 mA in active mode and reducing to 1 mA in sleep mode, depending on chassis support. The module is designed to operate effectively with a recommended GPS signal strength between -135 dBm to -120 dBm.
The front panel of the NI-9467 features LED indicators for normal operation, antenna error, performing survey, and insufficient satellites, providing immediate visual feedback on the module’s status. It weighs 4.5 oz and is built to withstand harsh conditions, with an operating temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C and a storage temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C. The module can operate and be stored in environments with humidity ranging from 10% RH to 90% RH (non-condensing) and 5% RH to 95% RH (non-condensing), respectively.
Regarding durability, the NI-9467 is designed to manage vibration up to 5 grms (random), ensuring reliability and longevity in a variety of industrial settings. This makes it an ideal choice for critical time synchronization tasks in demanding environments.
