GETTING STARTED GUIDE
NI 9213
16 TC, ±78 mV, 24 Bit, 75 S/s Aggregate
This document explains how to connect to the NI 9213.
Note Before you begin, complete the software and
hardware installation procedures in your chassis
documentation.
Note The guidelines in this document are specific to
the NI 9213. The other components in the system might
not meet the same safety ratings. Refer to the
documentation for each component in the system to
determine the safety and EMC ratings for the entire
system.
Caution Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage
the NI 9213. To prevent damage, use industry-standard
ESD prevention measures during installation,
maintenance, and operation.
Safety Guidelines
Operate the NI 9213 only as described in this document.
Caution Do not operate the NI 9213 in a manner not
specified in this document. Product misuse can result in

a hazard. You can compromise the safety protection
built into the product if the product is damaged in any
way. If the product is damaged, return it to NI for
repair.
Hazardous Voltage This icon denotes a warning
advising you to take precautions to avoid electrical
shock.
Safety Voltages
Connect only voltages that are within the following limits:
Channel-to-channel
None
Channel-to-earth ground
Continuous
250 Vrms,
Measurement Category II
Withstand up to
4,000 m
3,000 Vrms, verified by a 5 s
dielectric withstand test
Measurement Category II is for measurements performed on
circuits directly connected to the electrical distribution system.
This category refers to local-level electrical distribution, such as

that provided by a standard wall outlet, for example, 115 V for
U.S. or 230 V for Europe.
Caution Do not connect the NI 9213 to signals or use
for measurements within Measurement Categories III
or IV.
Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Voltages
If hazardous voltages are connected to the device, take the
following precautions. A hazardous voltage is a voltage greater
than 42.4 Vpk voltage 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 Ensure that devices and circuits connected to
the module are properly insulated from human contact.
Caution When module terminals are hazardous
voltage LIVE (>42.4 Vpk/60 VDC), you must ensure
that devices and circuits connected to the module are
