The NI PXI-2565 General-Purpose Relay Switch, part number 185835F-01, falls under the category of PXI Switches. This model, PXI-2565, is designed for versatile applications with its 16-Channel SPST configuration. It can handle a maximum switching voltage of 125 V DC and 250 V AC channel-to-channel, making it suitable for various electrical setups.
The device is capable of a maximum switching current of 5 A at 30 V DC and supports a maximum carry current of 5 A DC and 7 A AC per channel. When it comes to the maximum switch load, it stands at 10 mA, 5 V DC. Additionally, the maximum switching power per channel is an impressive 150 W, 1750 VA.
One of the notable features of the PXI-2565 is its high level of isolation, with 1400 Vrms from the backplane to input signals, ensuring safe operation across a range of applications. The contact material is made of gold-flash over silver alloy, which is known for its durability and reliability in maintaining connections.
The operate time is typically 5 ms, with a maximum of 10 ms, and the release time is even quicker at 4 ms (typical) to 5 ms (maximum). This swift action allows for efficient switching operations. The mechanical relay life is rated at 5 × 107 operations, indicating a long-lasting performance.
