Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Voltages

You can connect hazardous voltages only to the NI 9215 with
screw terminal. Do not connect hazardous voltages to the NI 9215
with BNC.

If hazardous voltages are connected to the module, take the
following precautions. A hazardous voltage is a voltage greater
than 42.4 V

pk

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

Make sure that devices and circuits connected to

the module are properly insulated from human contact.

Caution

When module terminals are hazardous voltage

LIVE (>42.4 V

pk

/60 VDC), you must ensure that devices
