The National Instruments part number 780587-69 refers to the PXIe-2569 PXI Relay Module, which is engineered for high-density switching applications. This module incorporates 100 independent single-pole single-throw (SPST) latching relays, with each relay capable of handling up to 100 Volts for switching and a maximum power rating of 60 Watts or 62.5 VA. It is designed for Measurement Category I, suitable for signal voltages not exceeding 100 Vrms, 150 Vpk, or 150 Volts DC, and can withstand impulse voltages up to 800 Volts. The maximum switching or carrying current per channel is 1 Ampere, with load capabilities adjusted based on ambient temperature ranging from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius.

For rapid actuation, the PXIe-2569 provides a typical relay operating time of 1 millisecond, extending to a maximum of 3.4 milliseconds in operation. The relays boast a mechanical lifespan of 100 million cycles, with electrical lifespans varying from 2.5 million cycles at 10 Volts DC with 100 mA to 100,000 cycles at 60 Volts DC at 1 Ampere. This module facilitates input triggers from PXI trigger lines 0 to 7, with a minimum pulse width of 150 ns, while output triggers can be programmed with pulse widths ranging from 1 µs to 62 µs to enable synchronization with other modules.

Housed within a single-slot 3U PXI Express chassis, the compact PXIe-2569 measures 21.6 cm x 2.0 cm x 13.0 cm (8.5 in. x 0.8 in. x 5.1 in.) and weighs approximately 289 grams (10.2 ounces). It features a secure 200-pin LFH connector, ensuring reliable connections in demanding industrial environments.
