Overview
IEC-61000-4-6 details the test equipment, radiation levels and testing techniques to accomplish RF immunity testing on conducted power and data cables. The EMC Shop is one of the leading vendors for configuring test systems suitable for your product. Most equipment is in stock and rentals can ship the same day.
In the global contest of EMC testing for residential and industrial EUTs (Equipments Under Test) “RF Conducted Immunity” compliance verification is definitely one of the easiest and less expensive to be performed “in house”, not requiring any special environment and normally involving a low power RF Amplifier. For this reason NARDA Italy has renewed its already well known as 6000S/10 RF Immunity System with components and test management software to follow and even overcome latest requirements from the Standard IEC/EN 61000-4-6.
The new “PMM Immunity Suite” software, accurately designed in terms of functions and user friendly approach, can manage the whole range of PMM components during both Test and Calibration processes, introducing the possibility of looking at the various monitoring tracks from generator and power meters (from field meter too in case of Radiated Immunity).
Cond-IS/10 system has been designed to provide all necessary components required for testing in accordance to IEC/EN 61000-4-6 with just one “package”, not losing modularity but still maintaining a very simple and cost effective solution. Operator can then only focus on testing, without worrying about collecting components and being sure they can properly work together automatically driven by a specifically designed software. The Cond-IS/10 system includes following standard components:
- Generator 3010 , 9 kHz – 1 GHz, -107 to +10 dBm
- Amplifier 6000N, 9 kHz – 230 MHz, 10/15 W
- ATT-25W, 6 dB Attenuator, 25 W max
- CDN M3-16, 3 lines 16 A each, calibrated at 1, 3 and 10 V levels
- Cab-06, Cable Kit to fully connect the system
- PIMS, PMM Immunity Suite software for Windows™ OS operated PCs
In case any different testing device should be required, it would always be possible to customize the system accordingly. More powerful amplifiers are also available upon request when a “Special”Test Level over 10 V should be achieved or when using an EM Clamp in conjunction with a Filtering Clamp; in this case the 6 dB Attenuator should be changed as well, according to the new max power level. As additional benefit, NARDA Italy Labs always provide the selected device (CDN, EM Clamp or Current Injection Probe) fully calibrated at 1, 3 and 10 V standard stress levels, together with the whole Cond-IS/10 system, i.e. including all RF cables and components belonging to the real testing condition.
