National Instruments SCXI-1336 Terminal Block

The SCXI-1336 (Part Number: 777687-36) configures the SCXI-1129 high-density network as a 16x16 (2-wire) matrix. This Terminal Block gives direct connectivity of signal wires to the screw terminals inside the terminal blocks. The terminal block works with the utilization of the matrix expansion cable for instant row extension and does not require outer wiring. The NI SCXI-1336 additionally contains associations for scanner advanced outputs and outside input trigger signals and has two 128-pin DIN connectors for interfacing columns between modules. The SCXI-1336 offers advantageous strategies for expanding the quantity of rows of a network utilizing at least two NI SCXI-1336.

This product follows the essential requirements of applicable European Directives, offering a Low-Voltage Directive (safety) of 73/23/EEC and an Electromagnetic Compatibility Directivity (EMC) of 89/336/EEC. This instrument also allows matrix extension wires for column expansion by means of a row connection and incorporates a front-mounting terminal block.

The tools required for this terminal block are an SCXI chassis, the SCXI-1129 switch module, a 1/8 in. flathead screwdriver, numbers 1 and 2 Phillips screwdrivers, long-nose pliers, a wire cutter, a wire insulation stripper, and a matrix expansion plug. When utilizing this instrument, it is important to know that when hazardous voltages (>42.4 Vpk/60 VDC) are present on any relay terminal, safety low-voltage (≤42.4 Vpk/60 VDC) cannot be connected to any other relay terminal.

SCXI-1336 Obsolete Status has been announced by National Instruments, but the Terminal Block will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.
