EM TEST EFT 500N8-series Electrical Fast Transient Generator
Description
EM TEST EFT 500N8-series is state-of-the-art EFT/Burst testers with a built-in coupling/decoupling network for single phase or three-phase mains supply lines and a HV terminal to connect a capacitive coupling clamp. The spike frequency can be varied from as low as 100Hz to 1,000kHz.
The EFT 500N8-series is capable to generate 1,000 spikes per second or up to 150 spikes per burst. Its performance complies with IEC/EN 61000-4-4. Pre-programmed Standard Test routines and many selected User Test routines make the EFT 500N8-series an optimum standalone solution for both testing during development and final testing of products and sub-assemblies.
The EFT 500N8-series are fully compliant EFT/Burst testers. Its increased pulse voltage capability also meets requirements of some special product family standards and manufacturer requirements, especially household appliances.
