Hi Nicholas-
I would recommend that you keep in mind the working voltage specs as you choose hardware. Since it sounds like your signals are not referenced to a common ground you will need to use differential input mode if you plan to use a DAQ board. This will help to overcome ground loops in your system. However, you must make sure that no input pin exceeds +-11V of AIGND (according to the NI 622X Specifications).
Since your signals do not share a common ground, a channel-to-channel isolated solution would probably be a better bet. The SCXI-1125 may be an option if you think your signals may lie out of the working voltage limits for a DAQ card alone.
Hopefully this helps-
