Data acquisition for pressure sensors

Hello, 

 

I am using a cDAQ and I have 3 pressure sensors:

- 1 gauge that need an excitation between 11.5 to 26.5 VDC and give an analog voltage output from 0 to 10 VDC

- 2 pressure transducers that need an excitation between 10 to 15 VDC and give an analog voltage output from 0 to 100 mV

 

I am wondering if there is a single C series module that will do the job? I was thinking about the NI 9237 but it looks like this card is not able to provide the excitation needed for the gauge

Actually, AFAK none of the c-series modules can provide such a high excitation voltage. You need an external power supply to provide the excitation for your sensors and the DAQ modules can read the analog voltages whether it is 0-10V or 0-100mV.
