Series 500 Surge Modules

These plug-ins to the E103 ECAT Controller generate the waveforms defined below. The first number (1.2) is the rise-time, the second(50) is the fall-time, both in microseconds. Current is given when defined by the standard.

Part # Description Waveform V/I Technical Standard
E501 Combination wave 2&12 ohm V=1.2x50 to 6600v I=8x20 to 3300a IEC 1000-4-5, ANSI C62.41

E513 Voltage ramp surge 100v/us, 500v/us, 1kv/us 5kv/us, 10kv/us to 3000v UL864


Series 400 EFT Modules

These plug-ins for the E103 Controller generate EFT pulse bursts of 5ms/50ns to meet national and international standards, including IEC 1000-4-4. Some include coupler/filters.

Part # Description Coupler/Filter Max Voltage
E411 EFT generator, 50 ohm output imped. not included 4.4kV
E412 EFT generator, 50 ohm output imped. 250v/16a single phase 4.4kV
E421 EFT generator, 50 ohm output imped. not included 8kV
E424 EFT generator, 50 ohm output imped. 480v/32a three phase 4.4kV


Coupler/Filter Modules

These modules are required to couple the surge onto the power line. The E551 can be used only with Series 500 modules; the rest with both surge and EFT modules. All include built-in voltage and current monitors and coupling modes under complete software control.

Part # Description Max. EUT voltage/current
E551 Sure Coupler/Filter - single phase 250V/16A
E4552-DC E4552 plus DC power option 277V/32A
E4554 Surge and EFT coupler - three phase 480V/32A
E4554-HV Surge and EFT coupler - three phase 600V/32A
