Description
The Part Number 782445-01 refers to a CompactRIO Chassis identified by its Model NI-9146. This product is designed as an NI 9146 Ethernet RIO Expansion Chassis specifically for C Series I/O Modules. It highlights a capability with 4 slots available for module integration.
One of the key features of this chassis is its Network Interface, which supports 10/100 Ethernet connectivity. This ensures efficient communication and data transfer rates suitable for various applications. Furthermore, it boasts compatibility with several key pieces of software, including the NI RIO Scan Interface, LabVIEW Real-Time, and the LabVIEW FPGA Module. This compatibility ensures users can effectively program and manage their systems.
The chassis is powered by a FPGA Spartan-6 LX45, providing substantial processing power and flexibility for handling complex computations and tasks. This feature, in particular, highlights the chassis’s capability to support demanding applications.
Regarding installation, the chassis offers versatile Mounting Options. It can be mounted horizontally on metallic surfaces, panel-mounted, wall-mounted, placed on non-metallic surfaces, desktops, racks, or even on a 35 mm DIN rail. This flexibility ensures it can be integrated into various environments and setups.
The operational temperature threshold is specified to be 70 °C, achievable when the unit is mounted horizontally on a flat, vertical, metallic surface. Additionally, it requires at least 1 inch of air circulation space on the top and bottom and 2 inches in front of the modules for cabling. These specifications ensure the chassis operates within safe thermal conditions and maintains performance reliability.
