NI 9476 Operating Instructions and Specifications |
Caution Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class I, Division 2.
Caution For Zone 2 applications, install the system in an enclosure rated to at least IP 54 as defined by IEC 60529 and EN 60529.
Caution For Zone 2 applications, install a protection device between the external power supply and the Vsup pin. The device must prevent the Vsup-to-COM voltage from exceeding 50 V if there is a transient overvoltage condition.
This equipment has been evaluated as EEx nC IIC T4 equipment under DEMKO Certificate No. 03 ATEX 0324020X. Each module is marked II 3G and is suitable for use in Zone 2 hazardous locations. If you are using the NI 9476 in Gas Group IIC hazardous locations or in ambient temperatures of –40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ 70 °C, you must use the device in an NI chassis that has been evaluated as EEx nC IIC T4, Ex nA IIC T4, or Ex nL IIC T4 equipment.

Some modules are Lloyd’s Register (LR) Type Approved for marine applications. To verify Lloyd’s Register certification, visit ni.com/certification and search for the LR certificate, or look for the Lloyd’s Register mark on the module.
Caution To meet radio frequency emission requirements for marine applications, use shielded cables and install the system in a metal enclosure. Suppression ferrites must be installed on power supply inputs near power entries to modules and controllers. Power supply and module cables must be separated on opposite sides of the enclosure and must enter and exit through opposing enclosure walls.

Each channel has a DO pin to which you can connect a digital input device. The 32 digital output channels are internally referenced to COM.
You must connect an external power supply to the NI 9476. The power supply provides the current for the output channels. Connect the positive lead of the power supply to the supply pin, Vsup, and the negative lead of the power supply to the common pin, COM. Refer to the Specifications section for information about the power supply voltage range.
Note The Vsup pins are internally connected. You can connect only one external voltage supply to the device.
Caution Do not remove or insert modules if the external power supply connected to the Vsup and COM pins is powered on.
The NI 9476 has current sourcing outputs, meaning the DO pin is driven to Vsup when the channel is turned on.
