PCD 150
Coupling and Decoupling Network for Data and Control Lines
The PCD 150 is used for surge coupling onto
unshielded data- and signal lines according to IEC/EN
standards. Damped oscillatory waves with both 100kHz
and 1MHz up to 3.3kV peak as well as ring wave
100kHz with Z=200 Ohm up to 4.4kV peak can be
coupled.
Coupling and decoupling elements are included in
one box because of the sensitive impulse shape.
Manual coupling path switching for differential
mode (transverse mode, line to line) and for common
mode (longitudinal, line to earth) testing.
Default coupling and protection elements are
breakdown avalanche diodes. Therefore the capacitive
load to the EUT lines is low.
The PCD 150 can be used together with the impulse
modules PIM 150 and the PIM 110 from the Surge
Platform. The PSURGE 8000 Surge Platform provides
all the programming functions required to perform IEC,
ANSI and EN testing also without the need of a control
computer.
With a 100 year history of innovation, service centers
on three continents and a full staff development and
support engineers, Haefely is the clear choice for all
your transient immunity test needs.

Benefits
International application – Specifically designed
to meet and exceed the requirements of:
- IEC/ EN 61000-4-12 Edition 1 Figure 9, 10, 13
and 14
- IEC/ EN 61000-4-18 Edition 1 Figure 7, 8, 11
and 12
Safe and Easy - All the sockets are safety banana
plugs to ensure maximum safety to the user. The
selected coupling path can be seen easily at the front
panel.
Sturdy and Reliable - Careful component selection
ensures that the PCD 150 will continue to operate
under the most strenuous testing regimen.
Report Generation - The controller can
automatically generate test reports without a
computer.
Add WinFEAT&R control and reporting software on
a host PC to collect and collate data in any format
you like.
