High-Power PXI Switch Matrix Modules

Modules designed for the switching of AC or DC loads or for controlling large relay or solenoid systems.

  • Electro-mechanical relays with current ratings of 5 Amp and 10 Amp and switching up to 250VAC
  • Solid state relays with current ratings of 10 Amp and 40 Amp and switching up to 200VDC/AC
  • Single and dual matrix configurations
  • 1 or 2 pole switching configurations
  • Expansion capability across multiple cards
  • Kernel, VISA and IVI support for PXI environments and Kernel and IVI support for LXI environments
  • Select modules are supported by our eBIRST Switching System Test Tools, these tools provide a quick and simple way of finding relay failures within LXI, PCI and PXI switch systems.

These high-power PXI switch matrix modules provide higher current and power ratings than the high-density switch versions. These modules are designed for the switching of AC or DC loads or for controlling large relay or solenoid systems. The solid state relay matrices occupy two PXI slots and are suitable for automotive and aerospacetest applications.

Each high power switch uses connectors supported by our cable and connector accessories and relays have been carefully selected to ensure long service life under demanding load conditions.

Max I (A)

Maximum continuous current each switch can carry.

Max V DC

The maximum voltage that may be applied to each switch.

Poles

The number of common terminals simultaneously switched by a single operation. … more

Banks

The number of independent switch topologies on a single module.

X Size
