Chassis supports measurements in rugged environments

4 June 2014 Test & Measurement

National Instruments’ cDAQ-9188XT is an 8-slot NI CompactDAQ Ethernet chassis designed for distributed or remote measurements in extreme environments. Being able to withstand temperatures from -40°C to 70°C, 50 G of shock and 5 G of vibration, engineers in the automotive, military and aerospace industries have used it to successfully acquire data and avoid costly repeat tests.

This chassis is the first in the NI CompactDAQ platform to offer an onboard watchdog with defined safe states to help protect tests and equipment. The range includes 10 chassis options, three buses and over 50 C-Series modules with a wide range of connectivity and I/O. The platform also has native integration with NI LabVIEW system design software, which provides signal processing libraries and user interface controls designed for data visualisation.
