Available reed relay formats are 1-pole, 2-pole and 1-Pole
screened. The screened version is suitable for switching
signals up to 50MHz. Larger matrices may be constructed
by Daisy Chaining the common signals from multiple PXI
moodules.

All 40-510 series modules are fitted with Reed Relays
(Ruthenium sputtered type), these offer very long life with
good low level switching performance and excellent contact
resistance stability.
Spare Reed Relays are built onto the circuit board to
facilitate easy maintenance with minimum downtime.
All reed relays are manufactured by our sister company
Pickering Electronics, www.pickeringrelay.com.

Support Products
Self-Test Diagnostic Tool (PI-MXT)
Some of these modules are compatible with Pickering’s 90-100
PI-MXT test tool. This enables all switch paths to be automatically
tested so that faulty relays can be easily identified. The tool consists
of a Windows executable program and an adapter for the specific
module, a user supplied multimeter capable of 4-wire resistance
measurement is also required.
The PI-MXT test adapters required for the 40-510 series are as
follows:
90-100-224 supports 40-510-022
90-100-216 supports 40-511-022
90-100-128 supports 40-513-021
90-100-218 supports 40-513-022
For further details on the PI-MXT tool, please refer to the 90-100
data sheet and user manual available from the Pickering website.
