Description
The TBX-68T is a rack mountable terminal block that comes with a unique feature, a cold junction sensor. This terminal block is designed for SCXI & Legacy systems, making it an integral component for those looking to maintain or upgrade their existing setups. Its part numbers are 183364D-01 and 777232-01, indicating its availability and replacement options.
One of the key attributes of the TBX-68T is its compatibility with NI-435x products, including the USB-4350, PCMCIA-4350, PXI-4351, and PCI-4351. This wide range of compatibility ensures that it can be integrated into various systems without the need for additional adapters or modifications.
For mounting, the TBX-68T is designed to be DIN-rail mountable, offering a secure and stable installation process. This feature is particularly beneficial for setups that require a high degree of organization and space optimization.
Connectivity is another critical aspect of the TBX-68T, featuring 68-pin with 26-pin latched connectors. These connectors are specifically designed for digital signal conditioning modules, including the SC-2060 Series, ER-8, and SSR-8. This ensures seamless integration and communication between the terminal block and other components within the system.
The TBX-68T boasts isothermal properties that are ideal for handling various types of signals including voltage signals, thermocouples, thermistors, and RTDs. This functionality ensures accurate and reliable readings, making it an essential component for systems that require precise measurements.
It also supports shielded cable compatibility with several cables including the PSH32-30F for the PCMCIA-4350, SH6868 for the USB-4350, PXI-4351, and PCI-4351 (recommended), and the R6868 ribbon cable. This compatibility ensures that the terminal block can be easily connected with minimal signal interference.
Despite its obsolete status announced by National Instruments, the TBX-68T remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves.
