PXI-2564 Specifications

This document lists specifications for the PXI-2564. All specifications are subject to change without notice.

Definitions

Warranted specifications describe the performance of a model under stated operating conditions and are covered by the model warranty.

Characteristics describe values that are relevant to the use of the model under stated operating conditions but are not covered by the model warranty.

  • Typical specifications describe the performance met by a majority of models.
  • Nominal specifications describe an attribute that is based on design, conformance testing, or supplemental testing.

Specifications are Typical unless otherwise noted.

Conditions

Specifications are valid at 23 °C unless otherwise noted.

All voltages are specified in DC, ACpk, or a combination unless otherwise specified.

Input Characteristics

Maximum switching voltage

Channel-to-channel

150 V DC, 150 V AC

Channel-to-ground

150 V DC, 150 V AC, CAT II[1]

Caution This module is rated for Measurement Category II and intended to carry signal voltages no greater than 150 V AC/150 V DC. This module features 1,400 Vrms isolation between input signals and the backplane as verified by a dielectric withstand test, one-minute maximum. Do not use this module for connection to signals or for measurements within Categories III or IV. Do not connect to MAINs supply circuits (for example, wall outlets) greater than 150 V DC; do not connect to MAINs circuits of 208 V AC (US) or 230 V AC (Europe).
Caution When hazardous voltages (>42.4 Vpk/60 V DC) are present on any relay terminal, safety low-voltage (≤42.4 Vpk/60 V DC) cannot be connected to any other relay terminal.
Caution The switching power is limited by the maximum switching current and the maximum voltage, and must not exceed 30 W at 150 V DC, 150 W at 30 V DC, or 150 V AC, 5 A.

Caution Switching inductive loads (for example, motors and solenoids) can produce high-voltage transients in excess of the rated voltage of the module. Without additional protection, these transients can interfere with module operation and impact relay life. For more information about transient suppression, visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code induct.
DC path resistance

Initial

<100 mΩ

End-of-life

250 mΩ

DC path resistance typically remains low for the life of the relay. At the end of relay life, the path resistance rises rapidly. Load ratings apply to relays used within the specification before the end of relay life.

Minimum switch load

10 mA, 5 V DC

Dynamic Characteristics

Relay operate time

10.4 ms (maximum)

Note Certain applications may require additional time for proper settling. For information about including additional settling time, refer to the NI Switches Help at ni.com/manuals.
Expected relay life

Mechanical

2 × 107 cycles

Electrical (full load)

1 × 105 cycles

Note The relays used in the PXI-2564 are field replaceable. Refer to the NI Switches Help at ni.com/manuals for information about replacing a failed relay.
