PEFT 4010
Burst Test System according to IEC/EN 61000-4-4 Edition 1 & 2
Electrical fast transients (EFT) are the most
common sources of disturbances in modern
electronic circuits. EFT/bursts are caused by the
operation of electro-mechanical switches, motors
or power distribution switchgears.
The PEFT 4010 instrument contains all the
features expected from a top quality EFT
generator. Unbeaten performance paired with a
high end assembly guarantee a cost effective,
long-lasting investment and valuable test results.
PEFT 4010 can either be operated by the front
panel keys in a stand alone manner or be
controlled by PC via RS232 or IEEE 488 as part of
a complete EMC test system.
Tests can be performed manually or
automatically with predefined test programs. The
front panel layout with its large LCD display and
the intuitive software are especially designed for
self explanatory and safe operation of the
instrument. Up to 36 test setups can be
programmed and saved on the internal non-
volatile memory.
Bursts are generated according to the related
standards IEC 61000-4-4 and EN 61000-4-4. The
PEFT 4010 can deliver EFT impulses in different
formats including normal, continuous, random
and real pulse distribution.
For better handling, the PEFT 4010 is equipped
with two grounding connections, one at the front
panel and one at the rear panel. This is very
helpful in making connections to the ground
plane if the PEFT 4010 is used either horizontally
or vertically.
With the integrated “Transition Function” U
nominal
,
the spike frequency, the burst duration and the
burst period can be varied automatically during a
test. Besides this, it is also possible to edit the
parameters manually during a test.
Besides conventional safety features, the
PEFT 4010 contains a separate “Line ON/OFF”
switch with which the main supply can be
disconnected from the equipment under test.

Unmatched Performance
Accurate and fast measurements make this instrument a
unique tool for cost-effective and reliable testing practices.
The PEFT 4010 possesses the highest frequency range
available on the market today.
Wide Range of Extension Options
A wide range of options ensures a customized EMC test
solution. Compatibility to other generators or detectors
increases the functionality of the instrument up to an overall
EMC test system.
Simple and Safe Operation
Intuitive and clear graphical presentation of the results helps
finding exact failure levels. Software menus are simple to
follow and do not have too many layers in the structure.
A help function has been built into the software, so that
pressing the softkey “HELP” will give you more information
about the operation you are attempting.
Safety features like external emergency stop or warning
lamp protect the user from hazardous and dangerous
situations.
