Description
The NI PXI-4070 FlexDMM 6.5 Digit Digital Multimeter, part number 778274-01, is a cutting-edge device categorized under PXI Multimeters. This model is designed to offer reliable and high-precision measurements for a variety of applications.
At the heart of its functionality is the FlexDMM technology, which includes a fully isolated, high-voltage digitizer. This technology allows the PXI-4070 to achieve a sampling rate of up to 1.8 MS/s, with the flexibility of a variable resolution ranging from 10 to 23 bits. Such capabilities ensure that the device can cater to both rapid sampling needs and situations requiring high precision.
Software compatibility is broad, supporting environments such as NI LabVIEW, C/C++, .NET, Visual Basic, and LabWindows/CVI. This ensures that users can integrate the PXI-4070 into their existing systems without the need for extensive modifications or learning new software platforms.
The PXI-4070 excels in both DC and AC measurements. DC system features include a range/function change of 100/s, an auto-range time of 50 ms, a trigger latency of 2 μs, and a maximum trigger rate of 6kHz. For AC measurements, it offers a range/function change of 10/s, an auto-range time of 250 ms, trigger latency in microseconds, and a maximum trigger rate of 1 kHz.
An important aspect of the PXI-4070 is its self-calibration feature, which enhances accuracy over a temperature range of 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. For maintaining peak performance, an external calibration is recommended every two years.
Maintenance and support for the PXI-4070 are robust, with services such as purchase and repairs being available through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can rely on the continued performance and accuracy of their device over the long term.
