Description
The SCXI-1503 16-Channel RTD Input Module with Built-in Excitation is a specialized hardware component designed for precise temperature measurements. With a part number of 779638-01, this module falls under the SCXI & Legacy category, specifically model SCXI-1503. It offers a robust solution for temperature monitoring across multiple channels.
This module is equipped with 16 channels, allowing for extensive data collection across various points simultaneously. It features a selectable amplifier gain of either 1 or 100, providing versatility in signal amplification to meet different measurement needs. Additionally, the module includes a lowpass filter with a cutoff frequency of 5 Hz, which is essential for eliminating high-frequency noise from the signal.
One of the key features of the SCXI-1503 is its built-in current excitation of 100 μA per channel, which is crucial for RTD measurements. The current source accuracy is impressively precise at ±0.05%, ensuring reliable and accurate temperature readings. Furthermore, the module is designed to perform consistently across temperature variations, with a temperature drift of only ±5 ppm/°C.
For software integration, the module is compatible with NIDAQmx (version 8.1 or later), providing a comprehensive and user-friendly interface for data acquisition and analysis. It also supports various compatible terminal blocks, including the SCXI-1306, SCXI-1310, and TBX-96, offering flexibility in system configuration.
The physical dimensions of the SCXI-1503 are 7.4 x 6.8 x 1.2 inches, and it weighs 26.3 oz. This compact and lightweight design allows for easy integration into existing setups. The module operates effectively within a temperature range of 0 to 50 °C, ensuring reliability in various environmental conditions.
