Description
The National Instruments PXI-4462 is a PXI Sound and Vibration Module designed for dynamic signal acquisition, making it an essential tool for engineers and researchers working in sound and vibration analysis. This module comes with part numbers 779688-01 and 779131-01, ensuring a wide range of compatibility and options for various applications.
Belonging to the PXI DSA category, the PXI-4462 offers high precision with a 24-bit resolution, ensuring detailed and accurate measurements. It supports a sample rate of up to 204.8 kS/s, enabling users to capture high-frequency signals without losing fidelity. The module is equipped with 4-channel dynamic signal acquisition, allowing simultaneous analysis of multiple signals.
With 6 gain settings, users can adjust the sensitivity of the module to suit their specific measurement needs, from very small signals to larger inputs. The module also features a high-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 3.4 Hz, useful for eliminating low-frequency noise and improving signal clarity. Its analog input supports both differential and pseudo-differential terminal configurations, offering flexibility in connecting various types of sensors and signals.
The analog overload point for the 0 dB gain range is at 10.7 Vpk, providing robustness against signal overloads and ensuring the integrity of the measurements. For software compatibility, the PXI-4462 works seamlessly with NI-DAQmx driver software, and integrates well with various software packages and Application Development Environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Microsoft Visual C++, Microsoft Visual Basic, Borland C++, and Microsoft .NET.
Additionally, the module can be easily configured and managed using the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) configuration tool, simplifying setup and customization according to user requirements. It also comes with an Obsolete Status Notification, indicating that while it may be considered obsolete, it is still available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves
