I want to do a simultaneous acquisition of accelerometer and an encoder measurements of a rotating machinery.
So which National Instruments data acquisition product must be chose to do this capture.

1st: check the voltage ranges of your encoders and accelerometers
2nd: do your accelerometers need IEPE power?
Ideas: (for accelerometers needing power and encoders with > +/-10V range)
NI USB 4432
NI USB 9232
NI CompactDAQ with 9232
other options in C series include 9234, 9229, 9215, etc.
In PXI, there is the 449x series of PXI express cards.
Do you have analysis and visualization requirements?
Take a look at these manuals:

Can i use a pci-6221 with BNC-2110 block to do this simultaneous acquisition ?

Sure if your accelerometers do not need IEPE power (perhaps you have external power supply for the accelerometers) and if the sensor voltage range is within the sensor voltage range of the 6221.

if i use PCB accelerometer, i need a signal conditioner as (480C02 from PCB)
