Description
The NI PXI-1031DC 4-Slot 3U Chassis is identified by part numbers 778932-01 and 190871M-01L. This device falls under the category of PXI Chassis and boasts a compact yet highly efficient design tailored for modular instrumentation systems. The model PXI-1031 is designed to accommodate various applications requiring high-performance computing and modular instrumentation in a compact footprint.
This chassis features 4 slots that are compatible with 3U PXI and CompactPCI modules, offering flexibility in system configuration. It comes equipped with an AC/DC 18-30 VDC power supply, capable of delivering up to 300 W AC, ensuring stable and reliable power for the modules installed.
The PXI-1031 chassis is designed with an auto/high temperature-controlled fan speed for cooling, which helps maintain an optimal operating temperature. This cooling feature is further enhanced by a slot cooling capacity of 25 W per slot, ensuring that high-performance modules operate within safe temperature limits. Despite its powerful cooling capabilities, the chassis maintains low acoustic noise emissions, as low as 35 dBA, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive environments.
From a physical standpoint, the chassis measures 6.97 x 10.12 x 8.38 in and weighs 11 lbs., making it compact and lightweight. Its design includes a HALT-tested chassis design, which ensures high reliability and durability under various operating conditions. Additionally, the chassis offers additional features such as a carrying handle and a rack mount kit, which are available for purchase separately, enhancing its portability and ease of installation.
For ease of configuration and management, the chassis supports the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) as its configuration tool, providing users with a flexible and intuitive interface for setting up and monitoring their systems. Moreover, despite being declared mature by National Instruments, this chassis model remains available for purchase and repairs at Apex Waves,
