High-density thermocouple module for data acquisition
10 August, 2009 byThe National Instruments NI 9213 adds high-density thermocouple measurements to the NI C Series platform. Using the NI 9213, users can create a compact, modular data acquisition system to collect data from up to 16 independent thermocouples. The NI 9213 takes up less space than standard instrumentation in a measurement system and provides more channels for measurement with a sampling rate of 75 samples/s/channel, making the device both compact and efficient for high-channel systems.
