Description
The SCXI-1160 is a general-purpose relay switch module, identified by part number 776572-60, categorized under PXI Switches. This module features SPDT Form C, electromechanical, latching relays making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
It includes 16 relays capable of handling a maximum switching rate of 50 operations per second. Each relay in the SCXI-1160 can support switching capacities up to 2 A at 250 VRMS or 2 A at 30 VDC, with an operating time of 10 ms for quick response to commands. The offset voltage is remarkably low at 3 μV, ensuring minimal signal interference.
Compatibility is a strong suit of the SCXI-1160, as it supports a wide range of boards including NI MIO-16, Lab-NB, Lab-PC, Lab-PC+, Lab-LC, PC-LPM-16, DIO-24, DIO-32F, and DIO-96. This makes it versatile for integration into existing systems. It is controlled through the NI-SWITCH driver software, simplifying the setup and control process.
Configuration flexibility is provided through the inclusion of jumpers W1, W2, W3, W4, and W5, allowing for customizable setup based on specific application requirements. The physical dimensions of the SCXI-1160 are 1.2 x 6.8 x 8.0 inches, making it compact enough for easy installation in various setups without sacrificing performance.
