The NI SCXI-1371 is a rack mount kit that integrates National Instruments SCXI-1000, SCXI-1000DC, and SCXI-2000 chassis into standard 19-inch rack systems. It provides a standardized mounting solution for secure, organized installation of SCXI equipment in laboratory and enterprise test environments.
Technical Specifications
• Mounting Standard: 19-inch rack compatible
• Compatible Chassis: SCXI-1000, SCXI-1000DC, SCXI-2000
• Material: Durable industrial-grade construction for laboratory and field deployment
– Key Features
The kit employs mounting brackets that attach to the chassis sides, enabling insertion into standard rack rails. Fastening mechanisms secure the chassis against vibration and movement during operation. This approach maintains organized cabling paths and preserves airflow integrity within rack-mounted configurations.
Installation is straightforward and requires no specialized tools beyond standard fasteners. The design minimizes signal degradation caused by mechanical vibration and ensures consistent electrical performance across extended operation periods.
– Typical Applications
The SCXI-1371 serves automated test equipment (ATE), data acquisition systems, and modular instrumentation deployments requiring consolidated chassis infrastructure. Primary markets include automotive testing, aerospace and defense validation, semiconductor characterization, and general electronic design verification where space optimization and systematic organization are critical.
– Compatibility & Integration
The kit is purpose-built for SCXI-1000, SCXI-1000DC, and SCXI-2000 platforms. Verification of chassis model compatibility is required prior to procurement. Installation environments must accommodate mounted chassis dimensions and associated cable routing. The solution eliminates ad-hoc mounting approaches and establishes repeatable, stable mechanical interfaces suitable for production test environments.
