Overview
The NetWave series (1-phase) are single phase AC/DC power sources, specifically designed to meet the requirements as per the standards IEC/EN 61000-4-13, -4-14 and -4-28. Used as a DC power source it covers the requirements as per the standards IEC/EN 61000-4-17 (Ripple on DC) and IEC/EN 61000-4-29 for voltage dips and interruptions on DC supplies.
With its low distortion and high stability, even if supplying dynamic loads, the NetWave series guarantees full compliant measurements for harmonics and flicker testing as per IEC/EN 61000-3-2,-3-3, -3-11 and -3-12 as well as JIS C 61000-3-2. The NetWave series is well suited for testing inverters (e.g. solar power, wind power) and e-vehicles. Additionally, the NetWave 7.3 offers the necessary capabilities for avionics testing as per DO-160, Airbus ABD0100 and Boeing as well as per MIL-STD-704.
NETWAVE - THE POWERFUL MULTITALENT FOR AC AND DC SUPPLY SIMULATION
The programmable AC and DC power source with its wide frequency bandwidth offers powerful waveform generation capabilities for various test applications in the EMC area and for avionics testing. Based on a Dual-Processor technology, with an integrated high-performance PC, a digital signal processor (DSP) and equipped with a hard disk the NetWave is capable to generate and record waveforms in realtime.
Its output power with low distortion and high stability, even if supplying dynamic loads, guarantees full compliant measurements for harmonics and flicker testing as per IEC/EN 61000-3-2, JIS C 61000-3-2 and IEC/EN 61000-3-3 as well as per IEC/EN 61000-3-11 and IEC/EN 61000-3-12. The NetWave is well suited for testing inverters of solar and wind power generators and e-vehicles. Additionally it can be used to generate immunity test signals according IEC 61000-4-13, -4-14, -4-27, -4-27, -4-17 and -4-29 (precompliant). NetWave 7.3 offers also full capabilities for avionics testing as per DO-160, Airbus ABD0100 and Boeing as well as per MIL-STD-704 and -461
According to standard requirements a pure sinusoidal voltage is needed for harmonics and flicker measurements. The output voltage of the NetWave is therefore guaranteed to have a very low distortion (THD) of less than 0.5% regardless of the load.
No matter whether waveforms are programmed of segments or of single points (normally resulting in MBs of data) the NetWave will do. Recording of waveforms with up to 1GByte is easily possible. The measuring channels are designed to handle up to +/- 500 Vpeak and +/-150 Apeak with 16bit resolution. Interfaces like GPIB, Ethernet and USB (to connect a memory stick) are common features with the NetWave. The NetWave 7.3 has an isolated output as required by military and avionics standards.
