Safety Guidelines
Operate the NI 9225 only as described in these operating instructions.
Hot Surface This icon denotes that the component may
be hot. Touching this component may result in bodily injury.
Hazardous Voltage This icon denotes a warning
advising you to take precautions to avoid electrical shock.
Caution Do not operate the NI 9242 in a manner not
specified in this manual. Product misuse can result in a hazard. You can compromise the safety protection built into the product if the product is damaged in any way. If the product is damaged, return it to National Instruments for repair.
Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Voltages
If hazardous voltages are connected to the module, take the following precautions. A hazardous voltage is a voltage greater than 42.4 V

or 60 VDC to earth ground.
pk
Caution Ensure that hazardous voltage wiring is
performed only by qualified personnel adhering to local electrical standards.
Caution Do not mix hazardous voltage circuits and
human-accessible circuits on the same module.
Caution Make sure that devices and circuits connected
to the module are properly insulated from human contact.
Caution When module terminals are hazardous voltage
LIVE (>42.4 V
/60 VDC), you must ensure that devices
pk
and circuits connected to the module are properly insulated from human contact. You must use the NI 9971 connector backshell kit to ensure that the terminals are not accessible.

Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Locations
The NI 9225 is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D, T4 hazardous locations; Class I, Zone 2, AEx nA IIC T4, and Ex nA IIC T4 hazardous locations; and nonhazardous locations only. Follow these guidelines if you are installing the NI 9225 in a potentially explosive environment. Not following these guidelines may result in serious injury or death.
Caution Do not disconnect I/O-side wires or connectors
unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
Caution Do not remove modules unless power has been
switched off or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
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.

Special Conditions for Marine Applications
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.

You can connect ground-referenced or floating signal sources to the NI 9225. Connect the positive signal of the signal source to the AI+ terminal, and connect the negative signal of the signal source to the AI- terminal. If you make a ground-referenced connection between the signal source and the NI 9225, make sure the voltage on the AI+ and AI- connections are in the channel-to-earth safety voltage range to ensure proper operation of the NI 9225. Refer to the Specifications section for more information about operating voltages and overvoltage protection.
Note You must use 2-wire ferrules to create a secure
connection when connecting more than one wire to a single terminal on the NI 9225.
