National Instruments NI-9209 C Series Voltage Input Module

The NI-9209 is a C Series Voltage Input Module with two different part numbers. The first part number, 783729-01, has either a D-Sub or a spring terminal front connector, and 60 VDC Ch-Earth Ground Isolation. The second part number, 785042-01, has a Spring Terminal front connector and 250 Vrms Ch-Earth Ground Isolation. All other specifications are the same for the two part numbers. This module is supported for the CompactRIO and CompactDAQ platforms. The CompactRIO platform is small, with an open embedded design and high harshness. It is easy to use and configurable with NI LabVIEW. The CompactRIO platform enables the NI 9209 to perform customized timing and triggering. It also enables the NI-9209 for processing with the help of an extensive range of existing I/O. This allows users to fulfill any requirement for embedded applications.

The NI-9209 supports the CompactDAQ platform. CompactDAQ is used for harsh data acquisition, is portable, and can integrate connectivity. This platform can perform signal conditioning and data acquisition. The CompactDAQ platform enables the NI-9209 to operate in a customized way. Hence, users can easily manage, analyze, and visualize the measurement data. The NI-9209 is run using the NIDAQmx driver software which is compatible with software packages/application development environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, C/C++, C#, and Visual Basic .NET. The device can be configured using the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool.

The NI-9209 has 16 analog input differential channels and 32 analog single ended input channels. It has a maximum sample rate of 500 S/s and an analog input resolution of 24 bits. The NI-9209 has a maximum input voltage range up to ±10 V for each channel. This Voltage Input Module is featured with a built-in noise rejection ability. It is able to reject noise up to 50/60 Hz. The NI-9209 has the capacity to reduce the modules according to requirements.

The spring terminal fitted model of the device weighs 5.6 oz, while its DSUB counterpart weighs slightly less at 5.1 oz. It has recommended operating temperature and non-condensing humidity ranges of -40 °C to 70 °C and 10% RH to 90% RH respectively.

The NI-9209 is available to be calibrated. While the recommended calibration period for individual parts varies, most parts should be calibrated either annually or every two years to ensure accuracy. If you need the NI-9209 calibrated, Apex Waves provides options. We offer high-quality NIST accredited calibrations through a 3rd party, with an average turnaround time of 1 to 2 weeks. When you order the NI-9209 with us, you can request basic (unaccredited) in-house calibration that will calibrate the part to the manufacturer specifications prior to being shipped.
