Description
The SCXI-1503 is a distinguished component in the SCXI & Legacy category, known for its precision and reliability in data acquisition systems. Its part number, 194411B-01, which is also recognized as 779638-01, signifies its unique identity within the vast array of technical equipment.
This module is specifically designed for applications requiring high accuracy in temperature measurements, offering a 16-Channel RTD Input functionality. It enhances measurement accuracy through a built-in 100 µA current excitation, ensuring stable and precise readings.
The SCXI-1503 boasts selectable amplifier gain, with options for 1 or 100, catering to a variety of signal amplification needs. Its 5 Hz cutoff frequency lowpass filter further refines the signal, reducing noise and improving the quality of the data collected.
Compatibility is a key feature of the SCXI-1503, as it seamlessly integrates with SCXI-1306, SCXI-1310, TBX-96 Terminal Blocks, offering flexibility in system configuration. The module is supported by NIDAQmx driver software (version 8.1 or later), ensuring easy integration with software environments. Moreover, it is compatible with several Application Development Environments (ADEs), including LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio, providing versatile development options.
Calibration of the SCXI-1503 is straightforward, with self-calibration available through MAX. However, for optimal performance, an external calibration is recommended annually or biennially. Weighing 26.3 oz and measuring 7.4 x 6.8 x 1.2 inches, this module is compact yet robust, designed for durability and longevity in a variety of industrial settings.
It operates efficiently within a temperature range of 0 to 50 °C, while its storage temperature range extends from -20 to 70 °C, ensuring resilience in harsh conditions. Despite its Obsolete Status, announced by National Instruments, the
