PIM 150

100kHz & 1MHz Oscillating Wave Module

 IEC 61000-4-12 and ANSI C37.90 describe an

oscillating wave generator with defined open circuit
waveforms parameters. The oscillating wave, also
called a “damped sine” is used to test the immunity
of electronic relays and relay systems mounted in an
electrical substation or similar harsh environment.
IEC product standards such as IEC 60255-22-1
include this wave shape too.

Safety is paramount when AC and impulse
voltages are being used. The PIM 150 High Voltage
connections are all designed so no accidental contact
can occur. In addition, the CDN input and output
terminals use touch-proof connectors.

PIM 150 contains an integrated
Coupling/Decoupling Network (CDs) for
superimposition of the impulse on AC and DC power
lines. The integrated CDN is specially designed to
ensure wave shape integrity at the test
system output. PIM 150 maintains wave
shape AND amplitude, even with multiple
coupling paths selected.

PIM 150 with the 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 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 integration in the WinFEAT&R control and
reporting software package enhances an 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.

Sturdy and Reliable - Careful component selection
ensures that the PIM 150 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.

Applications

Accurate Impulses - The PIM 150

wave shape and amplitude are
guaranteed to conform to specification
at the CDN output. Also with
simultaneous, multiple coupling path
selections.

Safe and Easy - The interlocked HV
section and the specially designed
output sockets, allow your operators to
test safely and easily.
