Burst Gernerator

NSG 3025

Burst tests form a particularly powerful part of EMC test strategies: they are used to verify

complete systems and identify disturbances in installations, as well for type testing.

The high frequency components of the pulse help diagnose immunity failures caused by

bad cabling or system composition, and can also indicate grounding problems.

Portability for On-Site use

On-site tests are
significantly simplified
by the NSG 3025's
compact design.
An ideal test tool
further also needs to
offer:

Easy local operation in all working positions

Pre-prepared tests and test sequences

A built-in coupling network for AC and DC
applications

A separately switched pulse output

A printer output for test protocols

Superb test margins

The NSG 3025 provides all these
features.

● Compact, full-capability instrument

● For standard tests to EN 61000-4-4, IEC 1000-4-4, etc.

● Handles tests to product standards and company standards

● Designed for certification, development laboratories and

on-site use

NSG 3025

Burst Generator

For on-site use, a handy
test generator with
autonomous functions is
required. And for
laboratory use, the
generator needs to offer
extended functionality for
product investigation and
automated operation for
certification work.

The NSG 3025 satisfies all
these requirements from one
compact unit.

Professional tool for certification
applications

People working in development laboratories and
test centers will appreciate the handiness and
small space requirements of the NSG 3025, but
more importantly, they will benefit from the time­saving and professional functions that the instru­ment offers for certification tasks:

Pre-programmed tests to EN 61000-4-4 and
product standards

Faultless reproducibility

Selection of coupling modes under program
control

EUT power control

3-phase extension

Automated test and test protocols via
computer and Windows-based software

Attenuator for periodic pulse verification

Additional features for development
engineers

For product design and detailed analysis,
the NSG 3025 offers the following additional
features:

Widely adjustable test parameters

Pulse data can be adjusted during the
test run

Selection of local or computer control

Full functionality under both local and remote
control, including ramping and sequencing

Superb characteristics, which far exceed the
standards requirements

Switched pulse output

A new random frequency mode to identify
hidden design problems

Single and continuous pulse generation

Applicable to all electronics sectors

The NSG 3025 is designed for use in industrial
electronics, system installations,
telecommunications, medical electronics,
domestic appliances, office automation, etc.,
and is fully equipped for all relevant product test
specifications, as well as future standards.

Computer control for the highest
requirements

Schaffner's WIN 3025 software package brings
additional, fully-automated functions to the
NSG 3025:

Simple test program set-up

Multilingual user guidance

Integration of comments

Automated and editable records of test
parameters and test results

Compatibility with the computer
infrastructure

Expandable and future proof

Carefully tuned extensions for dataline testing
and 3-phase test subjects, together with
accessories for calibration, safety circuits etc.,
are available for universal applications.
