The Keysight M9130A is a PXIe-compatible general-purpose switching module housing 26 independent SPDT (Form C) armature relays for dynamic test and control applications. Each relay switches up to 2 A continuous current with pulsed capability to 6 A, handles 60 W maximum power, and operates at 250 V (rms). With 2.7 ms switching speed and frequency response from DC to 40 GHz, the M9130A controls external devices, power supplies, indicator lights, and electromechanical actuators in production test, validation, and system integration environments.
