Description
The National Instruments PXI-2585 PXI Multiplexer Switch Module, with its part number 778572-85, falls under the category of PXI Switches. The model PXI-2585 is a sophisticated piece of technology designed for high-demanding environments. It is a 12 A, 1-Wire, 10-Channel Multiplexer Switch Module, making it an optimal choice for various applications including control applications, automotive, battery, and power supply testing.
This module is structured as a 10×1 multiplexer, offering exceptional flexibility and efficiency in managing multiple signal paths through a single channel. It is engineered to support an isolation voltage of 300 V channel-to-channel and channel-to-ground (Measurement Category II), ensuring safe and reliable operation even in complex electrical environments.
Furthermore, the PXI-2585 is capable of handling a maximum switching power of 3 kVA (up to 60 Hz) per channel, which is substantial for most high-power applications. The use of electromechanical single-side stable relays with silver-nickel contact material contributes to the module’s durability and reliable performance. These relays have an actuation time of 15.4 milliseconds maximum, ensuring swift and efficient switching operations.
Regarding longevity, the PXI-2585 has a mechanical lifecycle of 1 × 107 cycles and an electrical lifecycle of 1 × 105 cycles at 30 V DC, 10 A resistive, demonstrating its capacity to sustain extensive use over time. Such characteristics make the PXI-2585 an invaluable asset in settings that demand high performance, reliability, and precision.
