PXI 30A Fault Insertion Switch 6-chan 2-bus

The 40-191-012 is a PXI fault insertion switch using solid state switching elements and is capable of carrying 40A on single channel or 30A on all channels at the same time and provides a robust solution to high current fault insertion.

It is designed to be able to insert three different fault conditions between the test fixture and the equipment under test:

• Open-Circuit 
  
• Short-Circuit between UUT connections 
  
• Short-Circuit to external signals 
  

Through relays on each channel enable signals to the UUT to be set open-circuit. Fault Insertion Buses allow any channel to be shorted to any other channel and also enable any channel to be connected to an external signal such as Power, Ignition or Ground to simulate fault conditions. The module is supplied with 2 fault buses.  

Note: A last time buy date of 3rd April 2023 has been set for this product due to component obsolescence after which it will no longer be possible to place further orders. After the last time buy date passes service and support will continue to be offered on a best effort basis.

Note: The 40-191-012 has been discontinued because of obsolescence issues. To support our existing users, manuals and data sheets are provided for information only.

For new applications refer to the 40-191B-012 which has the same functionality with an updated bus interface.
