connected to them and hazardous live parts shall be able to withstand surges due
to transients, caused e.g. by lightning events and entering the apparatus through
the antenna terminal. The voltage surge simulator VSS 500N10 generates high voltage
transients as required by EN/IEC 60065 and UL 6500 standards for safety tests on
audio, video and similar electronic apparatus.
Such test is also required by EN/IEC 60950-1 for safety testing of Information Technology
equipment.

Application
Green Power testing - 1.2/50us Surge generator as per EN/IEC 61730
The surge generator type VSS 500N10.2 is specifically designed to generate high
voltage transients as required by IEC 61730-2 for safety testing of photo voltaic
panels. The specified waveshape of 1.2/50us must be generated and maintained as
specified across a broad range of capacitance the PV's do represent and as such
the generator needs to be based on different pulse shaping networks to cope with
the variable capacitive load of the panels depending on their size and design
Such test is also required by EN/IEC 60950-1 for safety testing of Information Technology
equipment.
Benefits
VSS 500N10.2 - Impulse voltage generator for photovoltaic panels
As per EN/IEC 61730-1/2 requirements for surge testing of photovoltaic panels these
shall be wrapped with copper foil. This leads to comparatively high capacitance
values of several tenth of nanofarad (typically values between approx. 10 and 180nF
are seen). This capacitance is switched in parallel to the output of the generator.
The required waveform of 1.2/50us needs to be maintained within the specified tolerance
for the entire load range. To cope with these requirements a dedicated impulse voltage
generator is required.
The EM TEST VSS 500N10.2 has been designed to cover the full range of capacitives
load photovoltaic panels may represent offering 7 different load ranges. Each load
range is based on a separate pulseforming network to comply with the tolerances
given in the standard.
Same as all EM TEST equipment the VSS 500N10.2 offers manual operation as well as
remote control operation via software. Pre-programmed test routines are offered
for the 7 different load ranges as well as the Quick Start and the User Test routines
for manual operation via front panel. USB and GPIB interfaces are implemented for
software control.

Application
Voltage surge simulation
The voltage surge simulator VSS 500N12 generates high voltage transients as required
by several IEC standards. The voltage surge pulses are used to test the isolation
(voltage withstand) capability of components, sockets, connectors, cables and many
other items.
Spark over detection and voltage/current measuring functions are included in the
generator.

VSS 500N12 - 12kV Voltage surge simulator
The VSS 500N12 is a surge voltage simulator specifically designed to test insulation
material, components, sockets, connectors, cables and many more items to their voltage
withstand capability. Testing the voltage withstand capability by means of a transient
test pulse is the most common alternative to tests using a.c. or d.c. voltages.
By means of the built-in voltage and current monitors and the Spark Over Detection
you are offered detailed test results to judge the quality of the DUT.
Safety precautions are taken to assure safe operation at this high voltage level.
The VSS 500N12 provides interlock and warning lamp control. By means of an optional
test box the operator can be further protected to avoid direct contact with high
voltage and to avoid harm from exploding components or fragments of them when failing.
iec.control remote control and documentation software allows fully automated testing.

by IEC 60255-5 with a source impedance of 500ohm for transient overvoltage tests
on "Protection Relays". The output voltage ranges up to 15kV, divided into two voltage
ranges (up to 6.6kV and up to 15kV).
The no-load waveshape corresponds to IEC-61180-1. For this kind of testing the IEC
60255-5 standard requires a fixed energy of 0.5J at each test level.
Benefits
VSS 500N15.1 - Voltage surge generator with constant pulse energy
The VSS 500N15.1 Surge tester generates high voltage transients as per requirements
of IEC 61180-1 (specification of the waveshape) IEC 60255-5 to specifically perform
transient overvoltage tests on "Protection Relays". According to this standard the
pulse energy is to be kept constantly at 0.5J at each test level hence a variety
of pulseforming networks is implemented in order to obey this specification.
The output of the VSS 500N15.1 is devided into two ranges; the lower range covers
the test up to 6.6kV while the higher range supports testing between 6kV and 15kV.
Dealing with considerable high voltage and energy safety features such as interlock
and warning lamp control self-evidently considered.
Peak voltage measurement as well as the detection of spark-overs are implemented
to accomplish the documentation of the performed tests.
Pre-programmed Standard Test routines allow highest user convenience. Still the
VSS 500N6 offers the Quick Start test routine where parameters can be changed on-line
during the test. Fail inputs are offered as standard for DUT monitoring purposes.
