Conformal Coating Explained: Protecting Your NI Modules from the Elements

In this video, we explain what conformal coating is, how it works, and why it’s critical for protecting National Instruments (NI) modules used in harsh or industrial conditions. You’ll learn how conformal coating shields sensitive electronics from moisture, contamination, vibration, thermal stress, and electrical interference. We also break down the most common coating types—acrylic, silicone, and urethane—and explain where each one is typically used. From application methods and thickness control to industry standards and common defects, this video covers what engineers need to know when choosing coated hardware.
