Description
The National Instruments PXI-2510 PXI Signal Insertion Switch Module, with part number 193423C-01L (778572-10), is a critical component in the realm of PXI Switches. This module is specifically designed to facilitate seamless signal insertion, making it an invaluable tool for a wide range of applications, including electronic reliability tests and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations.
The PXI-2510 boasts an impressive current rating of 2 A and is equipped with 68 channels, allowing for extensive testing capabilities across multiple circuits simultaneously. Its classification as a Signal Insertion Switch Module (Fault Insertion Unit) underscores its utility in creating controlled fault conditions necessary for rigorous testing environments.
One of the standout features of the PXI-2510 is its compatibility with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, ensuring seamless integration and control within LabVIEW’s comprehensive development environment. This module also excels in its responsiveness, with a pulse width recognition of less than 150 ns (with digital filtering disabled), facilitating precise timing and control of test sequences.
The PXI-2510 utilizes non-latching electromechanical relays for its switching mechanism, which are known for their reliability and quick actuation time—typically around 1 ms. These relays boast a substantial mechanical life of up to 1×108 cycles, ensuring longevity and consistent performance. Moreover, the electrical relay life is rated at 5×105 cycles at 30 V, 1 A, demonstrating its durability even under considerable electrical load.
