The\u00a0National Instruments PXI Chassis<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0are designed for measurement and automation applications, hold PXI modules, and link the modules with a high-performance backplane that provides synchronization and timing features.\u00a0PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0deliver cooling, power, and a communication bus for I\/O modules or modular devices. These modules can be controlled from an external PC or an embedded controller, with any of\u00a0National Instruments<\/strong>\u00a0software tools. These\u00a0Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0are compatible with PXI hybrid, PXI Express, and PXI modules.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The\u00a0NI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0all meet or exceed the cooling standards for even the toughest PXI modules. The PXI specification necessitates at least 25 W of power available for every peripheral slot. However, the specification for the\u00a0National Instruments PXI Express Chassis\u00a0<\/strong>enlarged this standard to at least 30 W of power for every peripheral slot.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0NI PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0are also manufactured to reduce system acoustic emissions. Most of the Chassis have an option for the user to choose High or Auto fan speed. The High fan speed offers the most airflow separate of the ambient temperature, while the Auto fan speed is controlled by the ambient air temperature.<\/p>\n

Another advantageous feature of the\u00a0National Instruments PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0is that NI creates many of the power supplies used in the 8 to 18 slot models. These instrument-grade power supplies are enhanced to meet the power standards of\u00a0PXI<\/a>. The user can safely utilize a\u00a0NI PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0filled with modules at the maximum temperature stated on the data sheet.<\/p>\n

There are\u00a0NI PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0created for benchtop, rack-mounting, a system with integrated signal conditioning, an embedded system, or portable systems. The\u00a0National Instruments PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0have AC or DC power options and anywhere from 4 to 18 slots. Some\u00a0Chassis<\/strong>, such as the\u00a0PXIe-1062Q<\/a><\/strong>, also have a system timing slot. The\u00a0NI PXIe-1062Q\u00a0<\/strong>additionally has two PXI Express hybrid slots, making it a versatile unit.<\/p>\n

Several of the\u00a0PXI Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0with integrated SCXI include the\u00a0PXI-1050<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0PXI-1052<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0such as these allow for the advantages of PXI and SCXI in one\u00a0Chassis<\/strong>. There is a built-in analog and digital bus between the farthest right PXI slot and the SCXI subsystem slot, which allows for a DMM or DAQ module to control the SCXI subsystem and does not require cabling. The\u00a0NI PXI-1050 PXI\/SCXI Combination Chassis<\/strong>\u00a0additionally enables users to link more PXI DAQ modules to SCXI modules in parallel mode, but this process does involve cabling.<\/p>\n
