Description
The NI-9482 is a C Series Relay Output Module manufactured by National Instruments. This module is designed for versatile applications and comes with part numbers 783906-01 and 782999-01. It features 4 electromechanical relay channels which enable effective control and automation tasks in various setups.
For connecting to different systems, the NI-9482 offers screw terminal and spring terminal options, accommodating a variety of installation requirements. With 10 terminal connectors, it provides ample connectivity for most applications. The power consumption of this module is highly efficient, requiring only 580 mW when active and dropping to a mere 10 mW in sleep mode, making it an energy-efficient choice for continuous use.
The module boasts 4 SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) output channels, capable of handling switching voltages up to 30 VDC, 60 VDC, and 250 VDC, which allows it to be used in a wide range of electrical configurations. Each channel is electrically isolated from the others, with an isolation rating of 250 Vrms continuous, ensuring safe and reliable operation even in demanding environments.
With a switching rate of 1 operation per second, the NI-9482 is suited for applications requiring moderate switching speeds. The relay timings are optimized for performance, with a release time of 10 ms max, an operate time of 15 ms max, and a bounce time of only 3 ms, providing quick and efficient switching capabilities.
Despite its robust functionality, the module is lightweight, weighing in at just 5.3 oz. It is designed to operate in extreme conditions, with an operating temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C, making it resilient and reliable for industrial applications where temperature fluctuations are common.
