PDFThe NI 9213 C Series module provides 16 thermocouple input channels for higher-channel-count temperature measurement systems with NI CompactDAQ, CompactRIO, and other C Series carriers. The NI 9213 can measure J-, K-, T-, S-, B-, E-, R-, and N-type thermocouples at more than 70 S/s/ch with 24-bit resolution.
Other features such as the 50 g shock and -40 to 70 °C temperature range make the NI 9213 ideal for rugged data-logging or control applications that require a large number of thermocouples. The NI 9213 has spring terminals for directly connecting thermocouples to the module, which makes setup easier.
Connect up to 16 thermocouples directly to the NI 9213.
The NI 9213 expands the thermocouple measurement capability of the C Series hardware family by quadrupling the channel count and dramatically increasing the sample rate of existing thermocouple modules. Other thermocouple modules include the lower-cost, four-channel NI 9211 and the NI 9219 universal module with channel-to-channel isolation. Currently, you can combine more than 50 C Series modules to create a mixed sensor test or control system in one of several C Series carriers.
