Pickering Interfaces intros new LXI high voltage matrix

CLACTON ON SEA, UK: Pickering Interfaces is expanding its range of LXI compliant products with the introduction of a new LXI High Voltage matrix, 60-311.

The 60-311 is a matrix designed for high voltage switching applications. Designed to withstand voltages up to 1kV with up to 2A of carry current, the 60-311 provides a dense and cost effective solution to matrix switching solutions where high user voltages may be encountered.

The LXI Class C compliant device uses high voltage D Type connectors ensuring that the connection solutions are readily available from Pickering Interfaces and other suppliers.

The 60-311 is offered in three configurations single, dual and triple 75x4 matrices - each individual matrix includes isolation relays on the X and Y axis that simplify configuration of the matrix into larger matrix sizes, when interconnecting the matrices together, which avoids excessive matrix loading in many applications.

The LXI Class C compliant interface allows simple Ethernet control of the matrix with local or remote access. The isolated nature of the LAN connection is well suited to high voltage applications. The 60-311 is designed to be used in rack, bench or distributed tests systems and uses a 3U rack mountable case system.
