Meet IEC, ANSI and CE Mark Standards for conducted immunity with ONE piece of equipment – Teseq’s NSG 3060
July 7, 2010 at 5:13 PM | Posted in Press Releases | Leave a commentTags: Advanced Test Equipment Rentals, conducted immunity, conducted immunity generator, EFT, PQF, ring wave, surge, Teseq
Advanced Test Equipment Rentals, a leading provider of electronic test and measurement equipment rentals, is pleased to announce immediate availability of the Teseq NSG 3060 6kV conducted immunity generator, which meets IEC standards, 61000-4-4,5,11 and 12, as well as various ANSI and CE Mark standards. 
IEC 61000-4-4 establishes a common and reproducible reference for evaluating the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to electrical fast transient/bursts on supply, signal, control and earth ports. The test method documented in this part of IEC 61000 describes a consistent method to assess the immunity of an equipment or system against a defined phenomenon.
IEC 61000-4-5 relates to the immunity requirements, test methods, and range of recommended test levels for equipment to unidirectional surges caused by over-voltages from switching and lightning transients. Several test levels are defined which relate to different environment and installation conditions. These requirements are developed for and are applicable to electrical and electronic equipment. The object of this standard is to establish a common reference for evaluating the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to surges.
IEC 61000-4-11 defines the immunity test methods and range of preferred test levels for electrical and electronic equipment connected to low-voltage power supply networks for voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations. This standard applies to electrical and electronic equipment having a rated input current not exceeding 16 A per phase, for connection to 50 Hz or 60 Hz A.C. networks. It does not apply to electrical and electronic equipment for connection to 400 Hz A.C. networks.
IEC 61000-4-12 relates to the immunity requirements and test methods for electrical and electronic equipment, under operational conditions, to non-repetitive damped oscillatory transients (ring waves) occurring in low-voltage power, control and signal lines supplied by public and non-public networks. The object of this basic standard is to establish the immunity requirements and a common reference for evaluating in a laboratory the performance of electrical and electronic equipment intended for residential, commercial and industrial applications, as well as of equipment intended for power stations and substations, as applicable.
For more information regarding the Teseq NSG 3060 and/or the IEC, ANSI or CE Mark standards it covers, please visit ATEC’s website.
