PXI RTD Simulator Module 6-Channel PT1000
40-262-102
The 40-262 is a 3U PXI module range that supports 6 (in one slot), 12 or 18 (in two slots) channels of RTD simulation. Based on the 40-260 design principles the module can provide a setting resolution of <8mΩ (PT100) or <90mΩ (PT1000) and a resistance accuracy of better than 0.1% on all channels. Each simulation channel is able to provide a short or open circuit setting to simulate faulty wiring connections to a sensor. Calibration or verification of each resistor channel can be verified by using the calibration port connected to a high performance DMM and a supplied software package.

PXI 3A Power MUX BRIC, 9-Channel, 16-Pole
40-571-203
The 40-571 is a Power Multiplexer designed to simplify the connection of a common set of test equipment to one of a number of different devices for testing (simultaneous multiple channel selection is possible for most configurations, see switching specifications for restrictions). It is ideal for applications where the equipment needs to conduct the same test process on a series of similar devices one at a time. It is available in a variety of configurations that allow testing with differing number of devices to be tested and different connection widths to suit differing test equipment pin counts.

PXI 8 Slot BRIC 522x4 1-Pole (6 sub-cards)
40-560A-121-552X4
This version of our BRIC is part of a range of high-density PXI matrix modules. These modules are available in 2, 4 or 8 slot PXI sizes to suit all high-performance matrix requirements and are constructed using instrumentation quality reed relays. With this high level of switching density, these PXI matrix modules allow a complete Functional ATE system to be housed in a single 3U PXI chassis. These BRIC matrix modules allow the use of lower cost 8 or 14-slot PXI chassis.

PXI MUX 4 Bank 0f 16 Channel 1 Pole
40-610-021-4/16/1
This series of high density multiplexer modules feature a wide range of switching configurations, especially useful where a large number of small multiplexers are required. Typical applications include signal routing in ATE and data acquisition systems. Connections are made via a front panel 200-pin connector. Inter-bank linking relays allow multiplexer size to be increased in multiples of in multiples of three by joining the common terminals of adjacent banks. Closing one linking switch produces a 6-channel multiplexer, closing all linking switches produces an 54-channel multiplexer

Cable Assembly, 160-Pin DIN41612, Female to Unterminated With Cut Ends, 1m, 45º
A1604F5-C-0A100
For applications where a 45 degree cable exit would be preferred with unterminated connections at the other end. The cable assembly is constructed from highly flexible 7/0.15 (26AWG) Silver Plated Copper Wire. If the user requires the connector to have a second fixing then the right hand connector can be fitted with the optional screwlock assembly 40-969-101.

PXI Single 46x4 Matrix, 1 Pole Switching
40-524-021
Medium density PXI dual 46x4, 1-pole matrix - it is also available inreed relay formats of 2-pole and 1-pole screened (see "also in this range" on right). The screened version is suitable for switching signals up to 50MHz. Typical applications include signal routing in ATE and data acquisition systems. The two banks may be used for operating a 4-wire measurement system (bank-1 for source, bank-2 for measure). Larger matrices may be constructed by daisy chaining the common signals from multiple PXI Modules.
