The Instek DAQ-908 Actuator/General-Purpose Switch Module has 20 independent single pole double throw (SPDT) relays and can be used for power cycling in DUTs, control indicator lights and status lights. The DAQ-908 can also activate external power relays and solenoid valves. While combining DAQ-908 with matrix and multiplexer modules, switching systems can be customized. 300 V and 1 A contact can handle up to 50 W, which is sufficient for multiple powerlines switching applications.

The DAQ-908 is for use with the DAQ-9600 Data Acquisition System. The modular structure of the DAQ-9600 provides 3 module slots and 6 optional modules, including general-purpose modules (DAQ-900/DAQ-901), multi-function module (DAQ-903), matrix module (DAQ-904), switch module (DAQ-908) and high-voltage and high-current module (DAQ-909). Users can combine and match arbitrarily according to the measurement needs. Since the DMM is built-in, it will not take up the slot space for maximum flexibility to expand channels to 60 two-wire channels or 120 single-ended channels or 96 matrix crosspoints.
