Intuitive, Customized Transient Testing in New, All-in-one Multifunctional Test Generator from EM Test

Posted: June 16, 2015

EM Test now offers the compact NX5, a multifunctional test generator that meets international and product-specific transient and power fail requirements, including EFT/burst to 5.5 kV, surge to 5.0 kV and power fail testing.

An intuitive 7" touch screen panel is the gateway to customized sequences and testing. Defined keys indicated by LED, such as start, stop and break, allow the user to run the individual configured tests quickly and accurately. Any pre-programmed standard tests can be implemented. All test parameters are displayed on-screen and the unit can also be operated remotely using the built-in Ethernet, USB or optical interface.

The standalone NX5 includes everything needed to conduct fully compliant tests as well as CE Marking for single-phase EUTs with an output supply of 300V/16A. Using an automatically controlled external coupling/decoupling network with a rated current up to 200 A, this compact generator system test three-phase EUTs for added versatility.

The NX5's advanced safety features make it ideal for use in industrial, medical, residential, telecom, components, broadcast and renewable energy applications. The unit, which conforms to IEC/EN 61010, includes real-time power monitoring of the EUT and a secure Ethernet or galvanic insulated OptoLink connection for reliable, safe testing.

For convenience, users can choose tests from an integrated standards library; customize their own test as well as import and export documents, photos and data easily. A quick start test option is available where parameters can be changed on-line while the individual EUT is still maintained.

The NX5 features fail inputs that allow users to control an ongoing test sequence based on the state of the EUT as well as monitoring outputs (BNC) that offer easy signal verification and measurements.

This new compact generator is the first to recognize connected EUT power configurations and selects only couplings to real existing lines. Non-existing lines are disabled from the menu settings.

A quad core ARM-Cortex A9 processor provides exceptional power optimization coupled with high performance, and the included iec.control software, supported by Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 and 8, is used for control and documentation.

EM Test supplies a wide range of accessories for nearly all tests and applications.
