Voltage Surge Simulator
Voltage surge simulation
The voltage surge simulator VSS 500N12-series generates high voltage transients as required by several IEC standards. The voltage surge pulses are used to test the isolation (voltage withstand) capability of components, sockets, connectors, cables and many other items.
Spark over detection and voltage/current measuring functions are included in the generator.
- Surge voltage up to 12kV
- Wave form 1.2/50us
- Built-in source impedance
- Interlock
- Warning lamp control
- Voltage/current measurement
- Spark-over detection
- Manual operation
- USB (optical link) and GPIB interface
Benefits
VSS 500N12 - 12kV Voltage surge simulator
The VSS 500N12 is a surge voltage simulator specifically designed to test insulation material, components, sockets, connectors, cables and many more items to their voltage withstand capability. Testing the voltage withstand capability by means of a transient test pulse is the most common alternative to tests using a.c. or d.c. voltages.
By means of the built-in voltage and current monitors and the Spark Over Detection you are offered detailed test results to judge the quality of the DUT.
Safety precautions are taken to assure safe operation at this high voltage level. The VSS 500N12 provides interlock and warning lamp control. By means of an optional test box the operator can be further protected to avoid direct contact with high voltage and to avoid harm from exploding components or fragments of them when failing.
iec.control remote control and documentation software allows fully automated testing.
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
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.
