Description
The PXI-2520 is a General-Purpose Switching Module categorized under PXI Switches. It is designed with part numbers 154416A-01L, 778572-20 and features a Single-Pole, Single-Throw (SPST), A-frame relay type. This module offers software programmability, making it versatile for various applications.
One of the key attributes of the PXI-2520 is its relay account tracking capability, which is supported to ensure efficient management of its components. The module is engineered to handle voltage/current capacity efficiently, making it suitable for Automated Test Equipment (ATE) or control applications. It can be utilized in a wide range of applications including the control of heaters, lights, fans, and for setting up ATE environments.
Protection against inductive loads is included, ensuring the longevity and reliability of the module in challenging environments. The DC path resistance is designed to remain low throughout its life, with an increase noted at the end of its lifecycle. This is critical for maintaining operational efficiency and reliability.
For installations involving power cycling, the PXI-2520 requires the complete removal of power and discharge, adhering to safety and maintenance protocols. The memory type of the module requires power to maintain data, highlighting the need for continuous power supply for data integrity.
