Products Description
NI SCXI-1000 4-Slot AC Signal Conditioning Chassis in stock
NI SCXI-1000 is a rugged low-noise 4-slot AC chassis for National Instruments SCXI signal conditioning modules. It supplies stable power to installed SCXI modules and manages backplane timing, trigger signals and signal routing between DAQ hardware and conditioning modules.
It supports daisy-chain connection, allowing up to 8 chassis linked by one DAQ device for high-channel measurement systems. Multiple AC voltage variants are available for global power grids. It is end-of-life, supplied as surplus or refurbished spare for legacy test & measurement system maintenance.
