EFT 500N8

The EFT 500N8 is the state-of-the-art EFT/Burst tester with a built-in coupling/decoupling network for single phase or three-phase mains supply lines and a HV terminal to connect a capacitive coupling clamp.
The spike frequency can be varied from as low as 100Hz to 1,000kHz. The EFT 500N8 is capable to generate 1,000 spikes per second or up to 150 spikes per burst.
Its performance fully complies with IEC 61000-4-4:2004. Pre-programmed Standard Test routines and a number of selected User Test routines make the EFT 500N8 an optimum standalone solution for both testing during development and final testing of products and sub-assemblies.

The wide ranges to adjust the spike frequency and the burst duration are well-known for many years. Of course, the EFT 500N8 meets the latest waveform requirements into load at the 50ohm output as well as at the EUT port in common mode operation unlike other generators. The EFT 500N8 is for sure a fully compliant EFT/Burst tester. Its increased pulse voltage capability also meets requirements of some special product family standards and manufacturer requirements, especially household appliances.
Different models of the standalone EFT 500M8 are avialable. It can be ordered with a built-in single phase coupler as well as with a built-in three-phase coupler for rated EUT currents up to 32A.
The EFT 500N8 can also be integrated in a complete test system in combination with other generators of the EM TEST 500 series and operate via a common coupling/decoupling network being equipped with the corresponding control interface.

Front panel menu and function keys enable the user to program his test routines quickly and accurately. The cursor allows fast control of all test parameters of the programmed routine, thus test procedures are simplified and confidence is generated that every step is carried out correctly.

Outstanding user convenience, clearly structured windows and operation features and the EM TEST standards library along with the flexibility to generate user specific test sequences very easily are the main features of iec.control software. The software is automatically configured according to the connected EM TEST generators. Extensive reporting capabilities help the user to create test reports that meet international requirements.
iec.control is supported by Windows 95/98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista. Remote control is achieved either via USB or GPIB. iec.control supports a wide range of GPIB cards of National Instruments.
