PXI switch handles high current, voltage apps

Pickering Interfaces is expanding its range of PXI switch solutions with the introduction of the 40-330 SPST power relay module, supporting both high current and high voltage switching applications.

The 40-330 provides 24 off SPST switches each capable of switching currents up to 4A and hot switching voltages up to 250VAC. The cold switch rating of 1000V peak permits the 40-330 to be used for high voltage test applications where hot switching is not required. User connections are provided on a 50 way male high voltage D Type connector.

The 40-330 is supported by any PXI compliant 3U chassis and can be supported by the Pickering Interfaces LXI modular chassis where an LXI control environment is required.

The module is supplied with software support for all the most common programming environments.
