NI-9213

The NI‑9213 is a high-density thermocouple input module that is designed for higher channel count systems. With this module, you can add thermocouples to mixed-signal test systems without taking up too many slots. The NI‑9213 includes anti-aliasing filters, open-thermocouple detection, and cold-junction compensation for high-accuracy thermocouple measurements. The NI‑9213 features NIST‑traceable calibration and a channel‑to‑earth ground double isolation barrier for safety, noise immunity, and high common-mode voltage range.

Applications and Use Cases of NI-9213

The NI-9213 C Series Thermocouple Input Module is a C Series module designed for high-channel-count thermocouple temperature measurement. It features built-in cold junction compensation (CJC), high noise rejection, and scalable channel density, making it ideal for applications requiring large-scale temperature monitoring.
