Description
The part number 151039A-01L refers to a high-quality CompactRIO Chassis, specifically the model NI-9144. This particular model is described as an NI 9144 8-slot Deterministic Ethernet Chassis, Conformal Coat, designed to offer reliable performance in demanding environments.
At its core, the chassis operates with a 2M gate Xilinx Spartan FPGA, ensuring efficient processing and flexibility for various applications. For those interested in the conformal coating options, this model has two distinct part numbers: 780438-01 for without conformal coating and 780438-02 for with conformal coating, catering to different operational needs.
One of the remarkable features of the NI-9144 is its ability to daisy-chain multiple NI 9144 Expansion Chassis. This capability allows for extensive scalability and flexibility in system design. Furthermore, synchronization is handled automatically across all I/O modules and chassis, ensuring smooth and coherent operations.
From a software perspective, the chassis requires LabVIEW 2016 or later, LabVIEW Real-Time Module 2016 or later, NI CompactRIO Device Drivers August 2016 or later, NI-Industrial Communications for EtherCat 16.1 or later, and the LabVIEW FPGA Module 2016 or later. These requirements are crucial for ensuring compatibility and maximizing the chassis’s capabilities.
Connection to an NI master controller is achieved through a Category 5 Ethernet cable, providing a reliable and high-speed link for data transfer. The power supply recommended for the NI-9144 is 48 W, 24 VDC, with a maximum power consumption of 20 W and an input voltage range of 9 V to 30 V.
Regarding durability, the chassis is built to withstand harsh conditions, as evidenced by its storage temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C and operating shock resistance of 30 g, 11 ms half
