OCS 500N6 - Compact tester for Ringwave and Damped Oscillatory Waves

The OCS 500N6 includes test capabilities for ringwave up to 6kV (as per EN/IEC 61000-4-12) and the damped oscillatory waves at 100kHz and 1MHz up to 3kV (as per EN/IEC 61000-4-18).

The Ringwave is a non-repetitive damped oscillatory transient occurring in low-voltage power, control and signal lines supplied by public and non-public networks. Damped Oscillatory Waves are repetitive transients mainly occurring in power, control and signal cables installed in high voltage and medium voltage stations.

The OCS 500N6 can also be used to perform magnetic field tests as required in EN/IEC 61000-4-10 using a magnetic field coil such as the MS 100N.

Benefits

Three In One - The OCS 500N6 combines Ringwave and Damped Oscillatory Waves

The OCS 500N6 is the standalone tester that perfectly complements the EM TEST product range for tests as per EN/IEC 61000-4-x.
Equipped with the Ringwave capability of up to 6kV it also complies with the Ringwave requirements of the American ANSI/IEEE C62.41 standard.

The two Damped Oscillatory Waves with 100kHz and 1MHz frequency reach 3kV each. The Damped Oscillatory Waves not only comply with EN/IEC 61000-4-18 requirements but also correspond with the requirements to test protective relays and relay systems as per ANSI/IEEE C39.70.

The Damped Oscillatory Waves are also used to generate magnetic fields as per EN/IEC 61000-4-10 into a magnetic field coil (e.g. MS 100N).

The OCS 500N6 comes with a built-in coupling/decoupling network for either single phase or three-phase and is rated for currents of 16A or 32A per line.

The OCS 500N6 can be operated manually from the front panel or by remote via the built-in USB or GPIB interface. Fail inputs allow to control an ongoing test sequence based on the status of the EUT. Monitoring outputs (BNC) are offered for easy signal measurement and verification. Safety features such as interlock and warning lamp control are available.

Pre-programmed Standard Test routines allow highest user convenience. Still the OCS 500N6 offers the Quick Start test routine where parameters can be changed on-line during the test to evaluate the susceptibility level of an individual DUT.

Operation

Easy to operate

Front panel menu and function keys enable the user to program his test routines quickly and accurately. The cursor allows fast control of all test parameters of the programmed routine, thus test procedures are simplified and confidence is generated that every step is carried out correctly.

Software
iec.control software for control and documentation

Outstanding user convenience, clearly structured windows and operation features and the EM TEST standards library along with the flexibility to generate user specific test sequences very easily are the main features of iec.control software. The software is automatically configured according to the connected EM TEST generators. Extensive reporting capabilities help the user to create test reports that meet international requirements.

iec.control is supported by Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. Remote control is achieved either via USB or GPIB. iec.control supports a wide range of GPIB cards both of National Instruments.

Auxiliary Devices

CNV 504N5 - Coupling network for signal/data lines

The CNV 504N5 is a 4-wire coupling/decoupling network for the application of the Damped Oscillatory Waves on to signal/data lines as required EN/IEC 61000-4-18 with a 200ohm source impedance.

Accessories
MS 100N - Magnetic field coil for Damped Oscillatory magnetic fields

The MS 100N is a 1sqm magnetic field coil as specified in IEC/EN 61000-4-10. Its design allows easy moving of the coil. The field coil is adjustable in height and allows for 360degr rotation.

The MS 100N is directly connected to the corresponding HV output of the OCS 500N6 to generate damped oscillatory magnetic fields as per IEC/EN 61000-4-10, up to level 5.
