IPG 1201

HV - IMPULSE GENERATOR

Surge testing 0.2-12 kV

Measurement of Insulation resistance Riso > 2MW with test voltage 500V

The High-Voltage Pulse Generator IPG 1201 is designed for testing of impulse dielectric strength of components, insulation, air- and surface flashover gaps. It is specially used for testing surge withstand capability of insulation between accessible parts and hazardous live parts, e.g. terminals for connection of antenna and mains supply terminals, refer to EN 60065.

The design of the impulse generator IPG 1201 corresponds to the proposal of IEC 60065 standard. The peak value of the test voltage is continuously adjustable from 0.2 kV to 12 kV respectively. Positive and negative polarity of output voltage can be selected. A built-in voltage divider 1000:1 allows monitoring of the impulse output waveform during testing.

In addition to that, the generator allows measuring of the insulation resistance after execution of the impulse test.

The insulation resistance must be higher than 2 MW, see IEC 60065.

The test voltage for measuring the insulation resistance is 500 V =. The measured value of the insulation resistance is displayed.

The generator excels by its compact design, simple handling and precise reproducibility of test impulses. It features a microprocessor controlled user interface and a 7” touch screen unit for ease of use. The microprocessor allows the user to execute either standard test routines or a “user defined” test sequence. A standard USB port provides the ability to print a summary of the test parameters to a USB stick.

The software program IPG-REMOTE allows full remote control of the test generator via Ethernet light guide as well as documentation and evaluation of test results, accordingly to the IEC 17025. To record definite impulses, it is equipped with an Impulse Recording Function (IRF) Moreover all generator functions may be computer controlled via the isolated optical interface.
