4-Channel Current Input C Series Module
NI 9227
5 Arms measurement (14 A peak)
50 kS/s/ch simultaneous inputs
Built-in antialias filters
250 Vrms channel-to-channel isolation
Screw terminal connectors included, protective backshells sold separately
Overview
The NI 9227 C Series current input module was designed to measure 5 Arms nominal and up to 14 A peak on each channel with channel-to-channel isolation. When used with the
NI 9225 high-voltage module, the NI 9227 current module can measure power and energy consumption for applications such as appliance and electronic device test. With up to
50 kS/s per channel simultaneous sampling, you can not only measure and meter current and power but also look at quality factors such as noise, frequency, and harmonics.

Application and Technology
High-accuracy NI C Series analog input modules for NI CompactDAQ and CompactRIO provide high-performance measurements for a wide variety of industrial, in-vehicle, and
laboratory sensors and signal types. Each module includes built-in signal conditioning and an integrated connector with screw terminal or cable options for flexible and low-cost
signal wiring. All modules feature CompactRIO Extreme Industrial Certifications and Ratings.
C Series Compatibility
The C Series hardware family features more than 50 measurement modules and several chassis and carriers for deployment. With this variety of modules, you can mix and match
measurements such as temperature, acceleration, flow, pressure, strain, acoustic, voltage, current, digital, and more to create a custom system. Install the modules in one of
several carriers to create a single module USB, Ethernet, or Wi-Fi system, or combine them in chassis such as NI CompactDAQ and CompactRIO to create a
mixed-measurement system with synchronized measurements. You can install up to eight modules in a simple, complete NI CompactDAQ USB data acquisition system to
synchronize all of the analog output, analog input, and digital I/O from the modules. For a system without a PC, CompactRIO holds up to eight modules and features a built-in
processor, RAM, and storage for an embedded data logger or control unit. For higher-speed control, CompactRIO chassis incorporate a field-programmable gate array (FPGA)
that you can program with NI LabVIEW software to achieve silicon-speed processing on I/O data from C Series modules.
Advanced Features
When used with CompactRIO, C Series analog input modules connect directly to reconfigurable I/O (RIO) FPGA hardware to create high-performance embedded systems. The
reconfigurable FPGA hardware within CompactRIO provides a variety of options for custom timing, triggering, synchronization, filtering, signal processing, and high-speed
decision making for all C Series analog modules. For instance, with CompactRIO, you can implement custom triggering for any analog sensor type on a per-channel basis using
the flexibility and performance of the FPGA and the numerous arithmetic and comparison function blocks built into the LabVIEW FPGA Module.
Key Features
High-accuracy, high-performance analog measurements for any CompactRIO embedded system, R Series expansion chassis, or NI CompactDAQ chassis
Screw terminals, BNC, D-Sub, spring terminals, strain relief, high voltage, cable, solder cup backshell, and other connectivity options
Available channel-to-earth ground double-isolation barrier for safety, noise immunity, and high common-mode voltage range
CompactRIO Extreme Industrial Certifications and Ratings
Built-in signal conditioning for direct connection to sensors and industrial devices

Support and Services
System Assurance Programs
NI system assurance programs are designed to make it even easier for you to own an NI system. These programs include configuration and deployment services for your NI PXI,
CompactRIO, or Compact FieldPoint system. The NI Basic System Assurance Program provides a simple integration test and ensures that your system is delivered completely
assembled in one box. When you configure your system with the NI Standard System Assurance Program, you can select from available NI system driver sets and application
development environments to create customized, reorderable software configurations. Your system arrives fully assembled and tested in one box with your software preinstalled.
When you order your system with the standard program, you also receive system-specific documentation including a bill of materials, an integration test report, a recommended
maintenance plan, and frequently asked question documents. Finally, the standard program reduces the total cost of owning an NI system by providing three years of warranty
coverage and calibration service. Use the online product advisors at ni.com/advisor to find a system assurance program to meet your needs.
Calibration
NI measurement hardware is calibrated to ensure measurement accuracy and verify that the device meets its published specifications. To ensure the ongoing accuracy of your
