The V 4780 tapped autotransformer is designed to supply the required voltages as per IEC/EN 61000-4-11 to perform voltage dips.

The V 4780S2 is an automatic tapped auto transformer, designed to supply the required voltages as per IEC/EN 61000-4-11 to perform voltage dips and interruptions. Compared to the manually operated V 4780, the V 4780S2 model offers automatic change of taps according to the selected voltage level.

The MFC 1000 is a 1m x 1m magnetic field coil as specified in IEC/EN 61000-4-8 and IEC/EN 61000-4-9. Its design allows easy moving of the coil. The field coil is adjustable in height and allows for 360 degree rotation.
To generate power-frequency magnetic fields in the lower range the current transformer MFT 30 is used while high-field strength above 100 A/m up to 1000 A/m requires the MFT 100 current transformer.

Capacitive coupling clamp as per specification IEC/EN 61000-4-4.

ITP is a tool being used for development test. It consists of a variety of electrical field probes. The probes allow to locate weak points within a system or on a PCB. The burst pulse is used to generate the disturbance signal.

As per IEC/EN 61000-4-4 the characteristic of the burst generator needs to be verified with two different loads, 50 ohm and 1,000 ohm. EM TEST offers a calibration kit consisting of the two loads and an adapter to verify the pulses at the EUT output.

The IEC/EN 61000-4-4 Ed 3.0 standard published in 2012 recommends the calibration of the capacitive coupling clamp into a 50 ohm coaxial load.
The capacitive coupling clamp (CCI or HFK) is connected to the 50 ohm output of the EFT generator. A flexible insulated plate inside the capacitive coupling clamp is connected to a coaxial 50 ohm load resistor for verifying the EFT/Burst wave of the capacitive coupling clamp.

The inrush current capability of PowerFail generators as per EN/IEC 61000-4-11 and IEC/EN 61000-4-34 can be verified by means of the CA PFS circuit box. The circuit is specified in Annexes of EN/IEC 61000-4-11, -34 Standard. The inrush current is measured by means of the built-in current delivering a voltage signal of 10 mV/A at the corresponding BNC output connected to an oscilloscope with selected 1 MOhm input impedance.

The HSC 4-8 from AMETEK CTS is the first coupling/decoupling network available on the market to couple Surge onto shielded and unshielded high-speed communication lines with data rates up to 1,000MBit/s.
Additionally, the HSC 4-8 can be used as a coupling/decoupling network to apply Burst- as well as Ringwave pulses to unshielded symmetrical interconnection lines. The HSC 4-8 meets the requirements according Figure 11 and Figure 12 to the standards IEC 61000-4-5 (Ed. 3.0 :2014) and IEC 61000-4-12 (Ed. 3.0 :2017) Figure 10.
