National Instruments SET-2010

The Smart E Tech SET-2010 Routing Card, designated by part number 786433-01, is a high-density switching matrix engineered to meet the demanding needs of Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation systems. This routing card supports sophisticated signal management with the capability to handle 64 single-ended channels or 32 differential channels, making it adaptable for diverse industrial applications. Its compact design, measuring 144.32 mm x 30.48 mm x 302 mm, adheres to the Standard SLSC card size, facilitating easy integration into existing setups.

The SET-2010 is equipped with two female DB-44 high-density D-Sub connectors and a 2mm hard metric RTI connector that meets IEC 61076-101 standards, ensuring robust and reliable connectivity. It accommodates input voltage ranging from -60 Vdc to 60 Vdc and provides maximum switching power of 60 W for DC resistive loads with a current rating of up to 1.5 A. The routing card boasts an impressive electrical lifetime, rated for 100,000 operations at 1 A and 30 Vdc resistive load, and 10,000 operations at 1.5 A. The bandwidth is rated at ≤20 MHz with a -3dB, 50 Ohm termination, making it suitable for various industrial applications.

Designed with two plug-in module slots, the SET-2010 enhances functionality through line fault insertion and instrument connection capabilities, thus expanding its application scope. The base card provides multiplexer functions for both front-panel and rear connectivity, including a high-current fault injection bus, which is essential for comprehensive testing and simulation scenarios. The device operates optimally in ambient temperatures ranging from 0°C to 40°C, supported by forced-air cooling, and can tolerate relative humidity levels from 10% to 90% non-condensing during operation and 5% to 95% non-condensing in storage. Its storage temperature range is -40°C to 85°C, and it is permitted for operation at altitudes up to 2000 meters.

The SET-2010 also adheres to rigorous safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards, providing protection against harmful interference in demanding industrial environments. To ensure optimal EMC performance, the use of shielded cables and accessories is recommended, with a maximum cable length of 3 meters for connectors J1 and J2. This combination of features makes the SET-2010 an essential tool for reliable and effective industrial automation and control systems.
