Description
The PXI-1042Q, designated by its part number 778636-02, stands out as a premium PXI Chassis in its category. This chassis is engineered with a cooling method that utilizes filtered, forced-air cooling, which is facilitated by two framework fans alongside a fan in the power supply, ensuring optimal thermal management for installed modules.
It features versatile fan settings that include a HIGH option for maximum cooling efficiency and an AUTO option designed to minimize acoustic emissions, catering to different operational needs. The chassis maintains an acoustic noise level as low as 43 dBA, making it an ideal choice for environments where noise reduction is a priority.
With a slot capacity of 8 slots, each capable of supporting a cooling capacity of 30 W, the PXI-1042Q is designed to accommodate a variety of module configurations. Its system bandwidth reaches a maximum of 132 MB/s, ensuring rapid data transfer and processing speeds.
Compatibility is a key feature of the PXI-1042Q, as it supports both 3U PXI and CompactPCI modules, providing flexibility in module selection and system design. The chassis is designed to operate within an extended temperature range, enhancing its reliability and performance under varying environmental conditions.
The inclusion of a removable, high-performance AC power supply with built-in current protection ensures a stable power delivery to the chassis and its modules. Additionally, electrical noise reduction is achieved through an isolated 12 VDC line dedicated to the cooling fans, minimizing potential interference with module operation.
The PXI-1042Q operates efficiently across a wide AC input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, and an AC operating voltage range of 90 to 264 VAC, coupled with an AC input frequency of 50
