    FAQ

    Transient Generators

    Transient generators are EMC test instruments designed to inject impulse or oscillatory transients onto power or data lines to evaluate the immunity of the equipment under test (EUT). These instruments can be configured to meet a variety of testing requirements, with a large distinction being models that provide combination wave surge testing up to approximately 5 kV and those capable of approximately 6 kV or higher. They are ommonly used for immunity testing in accordance with IEC 61000-4-4, IEC 61000-4-5, and IEC 61000-4-12. Some models can also support IEC 61000-4-11 testing when used with external accessories.

    Most transient generators include an integrated single-phase coupling decoupling network (CDN) that enables direct coupling of disturbances onto the power lines while isolating the AC supply from the generated test signals. For three-phase equipment or higher-power applications, external CDNs are commonly used. These coupling networks are designed to meet the requirements of the applicable IEC standards and are designed for many
    different applications.

    All transient generators must be shipped LTL freight, securely mounted to a pallet, regardless of their size or weight. This shipping method helps protect the equipment from damage during transit and ensures it arrives safely.

    Yes. Unless otherwise specified, all of our rental surge generator test systems include a current ISO/IEC 17025-accredited annual calibration. A copy of the calibration certificate is provided with the equipment on the included USB drive and can also be supplied in advance upon request.

    Standalone surge generators are typically designed for single-phase testing and do not support three-phase equipment on their own. For three-phase applications, an external coupling/decoupling network (CDN) is required. CDNs are available in a variety of voltage and current ratings, allowing the surge generator to be configured for a wide range of three-phase IEC 61000-4-5 test requirements.

    For power-on testing, the equipment should be connected through the coupling decoupling network. The power input for the equipment is connected to the back of the test system, with the equipment then connected to the front. The CDNs on each unit have limits for the voltage and current that should be adhered to otherwise, damage will occur to the test system.
