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. |
