National Instruments PCI-4461 Sound and Vibration Device
The National Instruments PCI-4461 (part number: 779307-01) is a high-precision data acquisition module particularly intended for sound and vibration applications. This device gives synchronous two-channel dynamic signal generation and concurrent two-channel dynamic signal securing with six pickup settings to design the input range. The PCI-4461 NI incorporates programming-configurable AC/DC coupling and integrated electronic piezoelectric (IEPE) molding to guarantee exactness estimations with receivers, accelerometers, and different transducers that have huge unique ranges. Basic applications incorporate sound tests, automotive tests, noise, vibration, harshness (NVH) analysis, and machine condition checking.
The analog information channels of the NI PCI-4461 have 24-bit resolution ADCs that are tested at programmable rates for standard sound applications, such as 44.1 kS/s (the rate utilized for CD players); 48.0 kS/s, the rate utilized as a part of digital audio tape (DAT) recorders and other computerized sound hardware; 96.0 kS/s; and 192 kS/s. It has a Delta–sigma ADC type. A programmable pickup intensifier arranged on the information sources gives pickup determination from -20 to +30 dB in 10 dB steps. Moreover, to give the user the calmest and most noteworthy quality analog estimations, the input stage acknowledges differential or single-finished signal associations.
This model comes with 118 dB dynamic range and low noise and distortion. The NI PCI-4461 Sound and Vibration Device can make extremely precise frequency area estimations. The PCI-4461 possesses both an analog and digital trigger. The device weighs 8.0 oz (226.8 g) and has the dimensions 6.9 x 3.9 inches (17.5 x 9.9 cm). Also, it has a PCI or PXI bus interface with a 3.3 V or 5 V signal environment and 2 DMA channels (one for analog input and one for analog output).
The NI 4461 is an NI Dynamic Signal Acquisition product that operates on NI-DAQmx driver software. Installing the NI-DAQmx software requires the presence of an application development environment such as NI LabVIEW, ANSI C, or Visual Basic .NET. The PCI-4461 has BNC female analog I/O connectors and an SMB male digital trigger connector.
The PCI-4461 is no longer available from the manufacturer National Instruments, but Apex Waves specializes in legacy NI hardware. The Sound and Vibration device will remain available with us for both purchase and repairs in perpetuity!
