3-Phase CDN for Burst, Surge | CWG 520

IEC / EN 61000-4-4
IEC / EN 61000-4-5

The 3-phase coupling network (CDN) can be used for EMC tests according to the IEC/EN 61000-4-4 (Burst) and IEC/EN 61000-4-5 (Surge) standards. The interference pulses of the burst generator or the surge generator are coupled to the power supply lines of the test object.

The coupling paths can be selected with a switch. The CDN can be remotely controlled from a PC via an RS232 interface in computer operation with the burst generator SFT 2400 / 1400 / 1420 or the surge generator CWG 2500 / 1500.

The CWG 520 is suitable for operation with the SFT 2400 / 1400 / 1420 burst generators or the CWG 2500 / 1500 surge generators from Schlöder, as well as with the CWG 520_F accessory with devices from other manufacturers.

The optional EMC software "EMC-SOFT" enables the Schlöder interference generators and CDN CWG 520 to be operated from a PC via the USB port. The required serial interface cables are supplied for the respective devices. With EMC-SOFT, all parameters that can also be set directly on the generator can be operated remotely.
