PIM 110

0.5us - 100kHz Ring Wave Impulse Module

 IEC 61000-4-12 and ANSI C62.41 describe a

Ring Wave generator for application on power lines in
a protected environment. ANSI C62.41 specifies the
ring wave for testing products situated in Location
Category A and B. The standard differentiates
between the two categories by detailing different
effective impedances of 30 and 12 ohms respectively.
IEC 61000-4-12 applies the same criteria as ANSI but
adds a 200 ohm source impedance and includes the
testing of input/output ports.

Safety is paramount with surge impulses. The
PIM 110 High Voltage connections are all linked into
the System Safety Concept which prevents high
voltage plugs or cables from exposing operators to
potentially lethal voltages. This concept is extended to
Coupling/Decoupling Networks (CDNs) connected to
the PIM 110 output.

PIM 110 as part of the PSURGE 8000 Surge Platform
System can be used together with
Coupling/Decoupling Networks (CDNs) for
superimposition of the impulse on AC and DC power
lines. Single and three phase CDNs have multiplexed
inputs, allowing up to 3 impulse modules to be
connected. A full suite of test impulses can then be
performed completely automatically and without the
need to power down and reconnect the EUT.

PSURGE 8000 Surge Platform can perform all the
programming functions required to perform IEC and
ANSI testing without the need of a control computer.
Voltage and Current monitor circuits enable quick and
easy verification of the impulse shape and amplitude. In
addition, peak measurement circuits are used to
help determine EUT PASS/FAIL criterion.

The s integration in the
WinFEAT&R control

and reporting software

package an
enhances efficient
set-up and
operation of this
test system. Most
importantly,
the test load can
be transferred to
a computer
freeing valuable

resources.

Benefits

International application – Specifically designed

to meet and exceed the requirements of IEC, EN,
and ANSI tests for power line applications.

Accurate Impulse Synchronisation - The
PIM 110 impulses can be applied to the AC power

wave with ±1° accuracy.

Safe and Easy - The interlocked HV section and
the integrated controller allow your operators to test
safely and easily.

Sturdy and Reliable – Careful component
selection ensures that the PIM 110 will continue to
operate under the most strenuous testing regime.

Report Generation - The unit can automatically
generate test reports without a computer. Add
WinFEAT&R control and reporting software to collect
and collate data in any format you like.

Perform tests as you really want – Because the
EUT requires a CDN to enable coupling of the Surge
impulse, PIM 110 pulses are guaranteed to be within
the standard specification at the point where an EUT
connects to the test system.
