GETTING STARTED GUIDE

NI 9260

2 AO, 3 Vrms, 24 Bit, 51.2 kS/s/ch Simultaneous

This document explains how to connect to the NI 9260. In this

document, the NI 9260 with BNC and the NI 9260 with mini

XLR are referred to inclusively as the NI 9260.

Note Before you begin, complete the software and

hardware installation procedures in your chassis

documentation.

Note The guidelines in this document are specific to

the NI 9260. The other components in the system might

not meet the same safety ratings. Refer to the

documentation for each component in the system to

determine the safety and EMC ratings for the entire

system.

Safety Guidelines

Operate the NI 9260 only as described in this document.

Caution Do not operate the NI 9260 in a manner not

specified in this document. 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 NI for

repair.

Safety Voltages

Channel-to-earth ground ±30 V maximum

Isolation Voltages

Channel-to-channel None

Channel-to-earth ground None

Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Voltages

If hazardous voltages are connected to the device, take the

following precautions. A hazardous voltage is a voltage greater

than 42.4 Vpk voltage or 60 VDC to earth ground.

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 Ensure that devices and circuits connected to

the module are properly insulated from human contact.

Caution When module terminals are hazardous

voltage LIVE (>42.4 Vpk/60 VDC), you must ensure

that devices and circuits connected to the module are

properly insulated from human contact.

Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Locations

The NI 9260 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 9260 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.

4| ni.com | NI 9260 Getting Started Guide

Caution For Division 2 and Zone 2 applications,

install the system in an enclosure rated to at least IP54

as defined by IEC/EN 60079-15.

Special Conditions for Hazardous Locations Use in

Europe and Internationally

The NI 9260 has been evaluated as Ex nA IIC T4 Gc equipment

under DEMKO Certificate No. 12 ATEX 1202658X and is

IECEx UL 14.0089X certified. Each NI 9260 is marked II 3G

and is suitable for use in Zone 2 hazardous locations, in ambient

temperatures of -40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ 70 °C. If you are using the NI 9260

in Gas Group IIC hazardous locations, you must use the device in

an NI chassis that has been evaluated as Ex nC IIC T4, Ex IIC

T4, Ex nA IIC T4, or Ex nL IIC T4 equipment.

Caution You must make sure that transient

disturbances do not exceed 140% of the rated voltage.

Caution The system shall only be used in an area of

not more than Pollution Degree 2, as defined in

IEC 60664-1.

Caution The system shall be mounted in an

ATEX/IECEx-certified enclosure with a minimum

NI 9260 Getting Started Guide | © National Instruments | 5

ingress protection rating of at least IP54 as defined in

IEC/EN 60079-15.

Caution The enclosure must have a door or cover

accessible only by the use of a tool.

Furthermore, any changes or modifications to the product not

expressly approved by National Instruments could void your

authority to operate it under your local regulatory rules.

Special Conditions for Marine Applications

Some products are Lloyd’s Register (LR) Type Approved for

marine (shipboard) applications. To verify Lloyd’s Register

certification for a product, visit ni.com/certification and search

for the LR certificate, or look for the Lloyd’s Register mark on

the product.

Caution In order to meet the EMC requirements for

marine applications, install the product in a shielded

enclosure with shielded and/or filtered power and

input/output ports. In addition, take precautions when

designing, selecting, and installing measurement probes

and cables to ensure that the desired EMC performance

is attained.
