Teseq Offers New Cost-Effective ESD Simulation System Group for Automotive and Industry Test Standards
Edison, N.J. - Teseq Inc., a leading developer and provider of instrumentation and systems for EMC emission and immunity testing, has introduced a new ESD simulation system group that includes the four most commonly used discharge networks. The NSG 438 simulation system group includes 150pF/330Ohm, 150pF/2kOhm, 330pF/2kOhm and 330pF/330Ohm discharge networks that offers a significant cost savings when compared to buying the items individually.
The new NSG 438 ESD simulation system group comprehensively fulfills many automotive and industry test standard requirements including ISO 10605, the most important international automotive ESD standard, which will now require all four networks as compared to only three of the networks in the past. With over 20 optional discharge networks, the simulation system also meets several other industry test standard requirements including IEC, ANSI and SAE.
The NSG 438 contains pre-programmed settings for IEC/EN 61000-4-2 and ISO 10605 to ensure the simulator is set up correctly and the proper discharge network is installed. The simulator's built-in ISO calibration self-test feature saves time by eliminating extra calibration and functional measurements prior to starting a test procedure. In addition, the NSG 438 meets the proposed new requirements indicated by ANSI and IEC, which require a more precise definition of calibration methods and tighter specifications for pulse parameters.
With a wide range of discharge networks and rigid and flexible tips available, the simulator easily meets diverse applications in the automotive, consumer electronics, telecommunications, medical, aerospace and defense industries.
The NSG 438 features pulse voltages of up to 30 kV, which support demanding research and development test procedures to determine immunity limits. The simulator offers freely adjustable pulse repetition rate ranges from 0.04 s to 300 s, allowing for greater flexibility for specific product standards where the pre-stored pulse repetition rates may not match all requirements. A special random generator function is also provided for non-standard interference immunity tests, in which the controlled statistical repetition rate of pulse triggering is programmed in either pulse or time mode. This feature benefits multi-clock systems by considerably cutting down overall test time.
To enable accurate discharge detection and to eliminate faulty discharge counts over a wider operating voltage range, the NSG 438 contains variable threshold selection. Useful for long test runs, the counter or present counter is incremented or decremented when a discharge is detected. In addition, the detection feature can be switched off when testing EUT's with non-conductive surfaces, such as plastic housings.
Users can create and store test conditions in the instrument's memory, resulting in easy retrieval of the settings remaining on the menu prior to shutdown as well as saved test conditions. With a safety interlock, the simulator can only be activated as a result of an intentional action by the user; otherwise it switches off automatically for safety purposes. The NSG 438 is powered by a high-energy battery pack for prolonged performance.
The group, like the base model, comes with a traceable calibration certificate and 2 year warranty. ISO 17025 accredited calibration is available from Teseq at an additional charge.
Pricing for the NSG 438 ESD simulation system group starts at $12,900. Lead-time for the group is approximately 2 - 4 weeks.
