Description
The NI 9217 is a highly versatile and powerful C Series Analog Input module, specifically designed for precision measurement applications. This module, bearing the part number 192547D-01 (Note: Long Description mentions Part Number: 779592-01), is an essential component for engineers and scientists who require accurate data collection in a variety of settings.
The NI 9217 features 4 channels, with an impressive 400 S/s aggregate sample rate, ensuring high-speed data acquisition. Each channel is capable of handling a 100 Ohm RTD with a 24-bit resolution, providing precise and reliable readings. The module’s resistance range spans from 0 Ω to 400 Ω, accommodating a wide array of sensors for diverse applications.
One of the standout features of the NI 9217 is its compatibility with PT100 RTD C sensors. It automatically detects and configures for 3- or 4-wire RTDs, simplifying setup and reducing potential configuration errors. This ability to automatically adapt to different RTD configurations enhances the module’s versatility and user-friendliness.
Software compatibility is another key aspect of the NI 9217, which seamlessly integrates with NI-DAQmx, LabWindows/CVI, Microsoft Visual C++, and other development environments. This ensures that users can easily incorporate the module into their existing systems without the need for extensive modifications or compatibility workarounds.
In terms of environmental durability, the NI 9217 is designed to operate in challenging conditions. It has an operating temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C and a storage temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C. Furthermore, it can withstand an operating humidity range of 10% RH to 90% RH (non-condensing) and a storage humidity range of 5% RH to 95% RH (non-condensing), ensuring reliable performance in a variety of environmental conditions.
