• Software selectable Surge waveforms:
10/1000
ms, 600V, 100A/side peak short-circuit current
10/1000ms, 1000V, 100A/side peak short-circuit current
10/1000ms, 1500V, 100A/side peak short-circuit current
• Ability to add a complete range of modules:
– Surge and EFT simulator modules for all
major national and international standards.
– AC mains coupler/decouplers for single or
three-phase lines, to 600V rms and 100A
continuous AC line current (the E509A waveforms
are not coupled to the AC mains).
– I/O line coupler/decouplers for all types of lines,
including telecom and RS-232.

Model E509A
Surge Simulator for Three-terminal
10/1000ms Telecom Testing
A plug-in module for ECAT
systems for true three-terminal
testing using 10/1000ms voltage
and current waves, as required by
Bellcore GR-1089-CORE.
FEATURES
• The ECAT is configurable as a compact,
standalone system with one test capability or as
an integrated, multiple capability tester.
• Unparalleled safety features for high voltage
testing, including a complete interlock system that not
only disables simulator operation if activated, but
completely removes AC mains power from the EUT,
when using any KeyTek AC mains coupler/decoupler.
• Automatic report generation using KeyTek’s
exclusive Windows
®
-based software.
• Modular system construction provides the ability
to upgrade test capabilities as requirements change
or evolve.
• Single port testing for Surge, EFT and PQF
™
mains
coupled disturbances allows changing test modes
without switching off power to the EUT. This avoids
lost time due to re-initializing the EUT between tests.

Note:
All voltage and current specifications are
minimum values, in accordance with
Bellcore GR-1089-CORE.
Outputs are all true three-terminal outputs
for testing either two or three-terminal
devices or inputs. Outputs can be
connected in parallel to double the
available peak short-circuit current when
testing two-terminal devices.
Front Time -30% /+0 for voltage;
Tolerance: -40%/+0 for 1500V waveform and current
Duration -0/+50% for voltage;

AVAILABLE OPTIONS
E509A-S: Adds an oscilloscope trigger for
any Surge network.
E509A-VI: Provides monitoring of the peak surge
voltages and currents at the output of
the E509 module. All measurements
are logged by software for diagnostic
evaluation or Go/No-Go testing.
Note: If an ECAT coupler/decoupler
is included, waveform monitoring is
available at the output of the
coupler/decoupler without the
addition of Option E509-VI.

ECAT: AN EXTRAORDINARY CONCEPT IN EMC
TESTING FOR VULNERABILITY TO SURGE,
EFT AND POWER QUALITY.
ECAT is a totally integrated and modularized system
which offers unprecedented testing ease, accuracy and
versatility to manufacturers, test houses, and anyone
who will be testing for effects of Pulsed EMI.
ECAT is designed to test products according to a broad
range of international standards developed by ANSI,
the IEC, CENELEC and other agencies. The European
Norms, developed by CENELEC, became mandatory
on January 1, 1996 for all equipment shipped into the
European Union or shipped across EU borders.
