Solar 8282-1 Transient Pulse Generator

Description

For Conducted Transient Susceptibility Testing, 0.15 µS – 5.0 µS – 10.0 µS up to 600 volts (peak)

The Solar 8282-1 Transient Pulse Generator was designed for screen room use in making conducted spike susceptibility tests. It provides all the wave shapes required by MIL-STD-461B/C and many other military EMI specifications.

Spike generators required for susceptibility testing have been our specialty since 1962, when our first unit, the Model 6254-1, was introduced. The Model 8282-1incorporates all the flexibility and technical excellence of the previous models and provides features required by specification MIL-STD-461B/C.

 

Features

  • Provides outputs up to 600 volts peak amplitude for the 0.15, 5.0 and 10.0 µS spikes into a five ohm resistive load (low source impedance).
  • A wide range of repetition rates allows spike injection in terms of the pulse rates of items being tested.
  • The single pulse feature enables controlled isolation of transient effects.
  • Adjustable pulse position on AC power lines relates the transient susceptibility to the real time aspects of digital circuitry served by AC power.
  • Transients can be injected in synchronism with repetitive circuit functions as required by Method CS06 of MIL-STD-462.
  • Remote triggering of single or repetitive pulses in terms of particular system characteristics.
  • The upper terminals of the PARALLEL pair and the SERIES pair provide a positive-going spike on the 5 µS and the 10 µS modes. These terminals deliver a negative-going spike in the 0.15 µS mode. When the test plan requires both a positive and a negative spike, it is necessary to reverse the connections to the output terminals of the Model 8282-1 Spike Generator.
