Telecom Surge Generator as per ITU / FCC up to 10 kV

TSS 500N10 - 10 kV Telecom Surge generator for 10/700 us test pulse

Telecommunication networks are exposed to lightning events. Therefore telecommunication equipment being connected to the outside world need to have appropriate protection to show an acceptable immunity to surge transients in order not to fail in case of lightning events. Telecom Surge Simulators of the TSS 500N series are used to proof the immunity of telecommunications equipment.
The TSS 500N10 is used to perform tests as per EN/IEC 61000-4-5 and related standards and complies with the requirements of ITU-T and FCC 97-270 (part 68) for Surge B pulse. It also generates the Surge voltage pulse 1.2/50 us as per EN/IEC 60950.

• Standalone tester for 10/700 us pulse as per EN/IEC 61000-4-5
• Test voltage up to 10 kV
• Complies to ITU-T for enhanced level testing
• Complies to FCC part 68 (Surge B pulses)
• Built-in CDNs for 2-wire and 4-wire applications
• Manual operation
• Standard Test routines
• USB (optical link) and GPIB interface

Benefits

TSS 500N10 - 10/700us pulse generation and coupling networks in one box

The TSS 500N10 is a compact tester to generate the Telecom Surge pulses 10/700 us and 9/720 us as well as the 1.2/50us Voltage Surge pulse.
The TSS 500N10 is not just the pulse generator but it comes with the built-in coupling networks for 2-wire and 4-wire test applications. The outputs can directly be connected to the Telecom ports of the DUT. For testing Telecom lines EM TEST offers the appropriate coupling networks for 4-wire or 8-wire lines.
Pre-programmed Standard Test routines allow best user convenience. Still the TSS 500N10 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 of National Instruments.

Other Models

Auxiliary Devices
CNV 504T5/508T5 - Coupling networks for Surge Tests on Telecom Lines

The coupling networks CNV 504T5 and CNV 508T5 are designed as per EN/IEC 61000-4-5 for Surge tests on Telecom lines. Two different models are available for 4-wire and 8-wire applications. The decoupling network consists of pairwise current-compensated inductors. The coupling of the Surge pulses is achieved via gas arrestors as recommended by EN/IEC 61000-4-5.
