National Instruments 777318-200 Analog Output Module for Compact FieldPoint

The part number 777318-200 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the cFP-AO-200 Analog Output Module for Compact FieldPoint. This module features 8 single ended analog output channels with a 12 bit digital to analog convertor resolution. This high resolution ensures precise measurement. Its current output ranges from 0-20 or 4-20 mA that is programmable  and these current values can be over ranged that enables this module to diagnose faults in the system such as the sensor malfunction. The 777318-200 supports an external power loop of 5-24 VDC to function as current source with an internal voltage drop of 3 Volts. It also features protection of its module in terms of short-circuit and open-circuit.

The 777318-200 Analog Output Module for Compact FieldPoint also attributes to maximum isolation voltage of 250 Vrms, Installation Category II with no isolation between channels. This property assures protection of equipment against potential damage by voltage spikes and surges while absence of isolation between channels rules out prevention from noise interference and ground loops.

The 777318-200 has physical dimensions of 10.7 cm by 10.9 cm by 9.1 cm (4.2 by 4.3 by 3.6 in.) and weighs only 113 g (4.0 oz), making it lightweight and compact. This module is designed to operate at ambient temperature of -40 degrees Celsius to 70 degrees Celsius and storage temperature of -55 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius. Its relative humidity ranges from 10% to 90%, noncondensing. This module is made to operate at power of 350 mW from the network module, ensuring efficient operation and minimizing energy required for functioning of the module.

The 777318-200 is engineered to endure harsh working condition. Its operating shocks are 50 g, 3 ms half sine, 18 shocks at 6 orientations and 30 g, 11 ms half sine, 18 shocks at 6 orientations under the (IEC 60068-2-27) standard while its operating vibrations are 10 to 500 Hz, 5 grms under the (IEC 60068-2-64) standard that is random and 10 to 500 Hz, 5 g under the (IEC 60068-2-6) standard that is sinusoidal.
