NI PXI-2523 Specifications 26-Channel DPDT Relay Module This document lists specifications for the NI PXI-2523 general-purpose relay module. All specifications are subject to change without notice. Visit ni.com/manuals for the most current specifications. Caution The protection provided by the NI PXI-2523 can be impaired if it is used in a manner not described in this document. Topology ........................................................... 26-channel DPDT, non-latching Refer to the NI Switches Help for detailed topology information. About These Specifications Specifications characterize the warranted performance of the instrument under the stated operating conditions. Typical Specifications are specifications met by the majority of the instrument under the stated operating conditions and are tested at 23 °C ambient temperature. Typical specifications are not warranted. All voltages are specified in DC, ACpk, or a combination unless otherwise specified. Refer to the Read Me First: Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility document for important safety and electromagnetic compatibility information. To obtain a copy of this document online, visit ni.com/manuals, and search for the document title. Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, operate this product only with shielded cables and accessories. Caution Input Characteristics Maximum switching voltage Channel-to-channel................................... 100 V Channel-to-ground.................................... 100 V, CAT I This module is rated for Measurement Category I and intended to carry signal voltages no greater than 100 V. This module can withstand up to 500 V impulse voltage. Do not use this module for connection to signals or for measurements within Caution Categories II, III, or IV. Do not connect to MAINS supply circuits (for example, wall outlets) of 115 or 230 VAC. Refer to the Read Me First: Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility document for more information on measurement categories. When hazardous voltages (>42.4 Vpk/60 VDC) are present on any relay terminal, safety low-voltage (≤42.4 Vpk/60 VDC) cannot be connected to any other relay terminal. Caution The switching power is limited by the maximum switching current, the maximum voltage, and must not exceed 60 W, 62.5 VA. Caution Maximum switching power (per channel) .....................................................60 W, 62.5 VA (DC to 60 Hz) Maximum current (switching or carry, per channel) ......................2 A Simultaneous channels at maximum current (≤55 °C) ................................................26 Minimum switching conditions ........................20 mV/1 mA Note Switching inductive loads (for example, motors and solenoids) can produce high voltage transients in excess of the module’s rated voltage. 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 relayflyback. DC path resistance Initial .........................................................<0.5 Ω End-of-life................................................. ≥1.0 Ω DC path resistance typically remains low for the life of the relay.
