PG 10-7000

Waveform 10/350 µs
Energy: 7000 J
Surge current amplitude: up to 2.5kA
Charging voltage: 10kV

The surge current generators PG **-**** generate impulse currents with waveform 10/50 µs - 10/1000 µs acc. to IEC, VDE etc.. Pulse current output amplitude is controlled by preset charging voltage and can be adjusted up to the maximum value of the special type of generator. The generator is designed for testing electrical components, over-voltage protectors and electronic circuits. It possesses an electronically regulated high-voltage power supply, which allows excellent reproducibility of the pulse output amplitude.

The pulse-forming network contains a pulse- fidelity current viewing resistor for monitoring the

output waveform. The impulse current output is located at the top of the equipment and provides high-current connectors for a plug-in test adapter.

All generators feature a microprocessor controlled user interface and display unit for ease of use. The microprocessor allows the user to either execute standard test routines or a ´user-defined´ test sequence. The test parameters, which are shown on the built-in display, are easily adjusted by means of the rotary encoder. A standard parallel interface provides the ability to print a summary of the test parameters whilst testing is being carried out.
