Application

CWS 500N1 - The single box solution for rf conducted immunity Testing

The CWS 500N1 is the most compact single box test equipment for testing conducted rf immunity as per IEC 61000-4-6 and related standards. Apart from the 1kHz 80% AM signal the CWS 500N1 also generates a 2 Hz 80% AM signal to test medical appliances and a 1 Hz PM signal with 50% duty cycle required to test safety equipment like fire alarms. Equipped with a 1 GHz current monitor the CWS 500N1 can be used up to 1 GHz by means of an external amplifier.

EM TEST supplies a large range of CDNs, EM clamp and current injection clamps as well as the corresponding calibration accessories. Full compliant levelling can be run from the front panel of the CWS 500N1 storing the results in one of the 5 memories.

Benefits

Conducted rf immunity testing - Easy, fast and reliable

One single box replaces five dedicated items. Hence setting up for testing is much easier and faster, saves space, is much more reliable and you achieve a higher reproducibility of the test results.

The CWS 500N1 offers the best benefit-to-cost ratio. Calibration/levelling of the test set-up has never been easier; terminate the DUT port with the calibration adapter, connect this to the 150ohm-to-50ohm matching impedance and lead its output to the Cal Input. Start the calibration routine and you are done in a minute.

The signal generator delivers signals up to 300MHz for the internal amplifier while the frequency range can be extended for 9kHz to 1GHz using an external amplifier.

The powerful, top-performance built-in class A amplifier allows to test up to 30V using any kind of coupling/decoupling device (CDNs, EM clamps, current injection clamps). The built-in 1GHz current monitor offers the ability to control the injected current signal while using injection clamps.

The EM TEST specific Quick Start test routine complemented by pre-programmed Standard Test routines make the CWS 500N1 completely independent from operation by software. icd.control software extends the capabilities of the CWS 500N1 to a complete rf test system, e.g. performing enhanced calibrations (customised voltage level or frequency range) through the built-in power meter.

Application

Bulk current injection (BCI) testing

Bulk Current Injection (BCI) is a test procedure to proof the immunity to electrical disturbances by narrowband electromagnetic energy. The test signal is injected by means of a current injection probe physically being a current transformer laid around the wiring harness. Immunity tests are performed varying the level and the frequency of the injected test signal. The BCI test methode is widely known in the automotive industry as well as in the military/aircraft industry to test single components of a complex system.

The CWS 500N2 is designed to be used also for tests with CDNs and EM clamps for tests according to EN/IEC 61000-4-6 and related standards.

Benefits

BCI testing out of one single box - Easy, fast and reliable

The CWS 500N2 is the first compact solution world-wide for testing rf conducted immunity to narrowband radiated electromagnetic energy. Apart from the injection probe and the monitoring probe everything is in the box; controller, signal generator, amplifier, directional coupler and rf power measurement of up to three signals in parallel. A built-in rf switch allows to connect and use any external amplifier to extend the system's capabilities.

Despite of being that compact the CWS 500N2 is a very flexible solution and can be used in the laboratory as well as everywhere in the field. Setting up a test is done very quickly with a minimum effort for cabling of the test equipment. There are only two leads; the rf power lead to the input of the injection probe and the return lead from the monitoring clamp. The user doesn't need to be an expert to run reliable and reproducible tests.

A powerful software tool including extensive reporting features and instrument driving capabilites masters the test procedures. All operation is done by means of icd.control software.
