PS 1500
15kV Impulse Voltage Generator
The PS 1500 generator is fully compliant to the
IEC, EN and UL requirements for safety testing of
ITE, Audio, Video and similar equipment and
components used in this kind of equipment.
Clause 10 of the IEC/EN 60065 standard specifies
tests on equipment insulation, clause 14 is written to
test the insulation of components.
Section 7 of the IEC/EN 60950-1 standard
specifies tests on IT-Equipment intended to be
connected to outdoor antennas.
Clause 16 of UL 1414 specifies surge tests for line-
by-pass and antenna coupling components.
The intention of these standards is to avoid the risk
of injury or damage caused by voltage surges from
thunderstorms.
In all standards,
impulses with the
following parameters
are defined:
50 impulses
12 per minute
maximum
1nF capacitor charged
to 10kV.
Features
Impulse counter
Repetition up to 24 pulses / minute
External trigger input
Impulse voltage and flash monitor
Handy test pistol included
Benefits
International application – Specifically designed
to meet and exceed the requirements of IEC, EN,
and UL tests for ITE, Audio and Video applications.
Comfortable to use – A light weight “pistol” type
probe transfers the surge into the test object.
Reduced operator workload – PS 1500 has all
operator accessible controls on the main unit. These
include a large LCD display and switches to change
polarity, repetition rate and discharge voltage.
Applications
