ETX-1640x Mass Interconnect Pinouts

The ETX-1640x has a mass interconnect component with the following measurement category, isolation voltages, and pinouts.

Measurement Category

Caution Do not connect the product to signals or use for measurements within Measurement Categories II, III, or IV.
Attention Ne pas connecter le produit à des signaux dans les catégories de mesure II, III ou IV et ne pas l'utiliser pour effectuer des mesures dans ces catégories.
Warning Do not connect the product to signals or use for measurements within Measurement Categories II, III, or IV, or for measurements on MAINs circuits or on circuits derived from Overvoltage Category II, III, or IV which may have transient overvoltages above what the product can withstand. The product must not be connected to circuits that have a maximum voltage above the continuous working voltage, relative to earth or to other channels, or this could damage and defeat the insulation. The product can only withstand transients up to the transient overvoltage rating without breakdown or damage to the insulation. An analysis of the working voltages, loop impedances, temporary overvoltages, and transient overvoltages in the system must be conducted prior to making measurements.
Mise en garde Ne pas connecter le produit à des signaux dans les catégories de mesure II, III ou IV et ne pas l'utiliser pour des mesures dans ces catégories, ou des mesures sur secteur ou sur des circuits dérivés de surtensions de catégorie II, III ou IV pouvant présenter des surtensions transitoires supérieures à ce que le produit peut supporter. Le produit ne doit pas être raccordé à des circuits ayant une tension maximale supérieure à la tension de fonctionnement continu, par rapport à la terre ou à d'autres voies, sous peine d'endommager et de compromettre l'isolation. Le produit peut tomber en panne et son isolation risque d'être endommagée si les tensions transitoires dépassent la surtension transitoire nominale. Une analyse des tensions de fonctionnement, des impédances de boucle, des surtensions temporaires et des surtensions transitoires dans le système doit être effectuée avant de procéder à des mesures.

Measurement Category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly connected to the electrical distribution system referred to as MAINS voltage. MAINS is a hazardous live electrical supply system that powers equipment. This category is for measurements of voltages from specially protected secondary circuits. Such voltage measurements include signal levels, special equipment, limited-energy parts of equipment, circuits powered by regulated low-voltage sources, and electronics.

Note Measurement Categories CAT I and CAT O are equivalent. These test and measurement circuits are for other circuits not intended for direct connection to the MAINS building installations of Measurement Categories CAT II, CAT III, or CAT IV.

Isolation Voltages

Isolation voltages only apply to hazardous voltage pins on the J13 and J15 mass interconnect connectors in the ETX-1640x.

Connectors not referenced in the following table have no isolation voltage ratings and are not intended to handle voltages above 30 V RMS, 60 V DC, or 42.4 V peak.

  • Working Voltage—The highest RMS value of the AC or DC voltage across the insulation that can continuously occur when the equipment is supplied at rated voltage.
  • Transient Overvoltage (V peak)—An overvoltage condition of a relatively short duration, a few milliseconds or less, oscillatory or non-oscillatory, usually highly damped.
  • Table 10. Isolation Voltages on Mass Interconnect Connectors
    Connector Isolation Barrier Maximum Working Voltage Transient Overvoltage
    J13 Channel-to-ground/earth (Common Mode) 300 V DC 0 V peak
    J15 Channel-to-ground/earth (Common Mode) 1500 V DC 0 V peak
