Outputs 3,000 Volts to 6,000 Volts Combination Wave (1.2ms x 50ms voltage, 8ms x 20ms current waveforms).

Two maximum current outputs, 3,000 amps max. at 6,000 volts and 5,000 amps at 6,000 volts at each of two outputs (dual sequential outputs).

Features:

  • Portable
  • Economical
  • Generates worst case industry standard surges.
  • Dual sequential outputs for direct product endurance comparisons.
  • One-shot and endurance operating modes.
  • The VM1 voltmeter measures surge let-through voltage, eliminating complex oscilloscope set-ups.
  • Simple to set up and operate.
  • For field and lab use.
BF1
Back-filter
Provides dual power outputs to the tested products while preventing the surges from flowing back onto the powerline.
CU1
Control Unit
Establishes the operating modes, surge timing and surge levels for simultaneous (sequentially) testing of two products.
DU1
Discharge Unit
Stores and discharges the surge energy to the units being tested. Has visual and aural indications of the surge event.
VM1
Voltmeter
Reads peak surge let-through voltage from 330 volts to 600 volts.
