    4 Initial operation 4.1 Visual check During transport AXOS may be subjected to excessive shocks and vibrations, even though every care is taken by HAEFELY Test AG to provide suitable packaging. Before operating the unit, check for signs of mechanical damage. Damaged packing cases may by a sign of transport damage.
  • Page 13: Connection To Eut

    Inside the AXOS, there are filter capacitors connected between L-PE and N-PE, as required by the standard. These capacitors will cause a residual current, which will trip the residual current circuit breaker. Hence, an isolation transformer needs to be inserted between main power supply and "EUT Supply Input" as shown in Figure 4-1 below.

    However, through the “Setup” menu predefined programs can be loaded and applied via an external “start/stop” device. There get controlled though Pin 7 in Table 5-3. When particular file has been selected, it must be confirmed with “load”. Figure 5-5: File selection Internal/Standard Note: When file wants to be applied and started without any external signal parameter, it must be selected inside the specific modus (e.g.
  • Page 19: Surge

    Please read carefully the Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 in detail before first use of the Surge generator. The short voltage impulse stays on the EUT during several µs. The peak voltage gets with the Axos5 up to 5 kV. The generator fulfils the requirements according to the IEC 61000-4-5 norm.

    6.2.2 Short Circuit Current (SCC) Figure 6-2: Short circuit current (SCC) [1] Front time: T1 = 1,25 x T = 8 µs ± 20% Time to half value: T2 = 20 µs ± 20% For verification of the output signal, a current transformer must be connected between position 6 and position 7 as shown in Figure 5-1.
  • Page 21 In the Figure 6-4 it shows the use of the pre-compliance mode. Indeed, every parameter can be changed by simply pressing on the black bows next to the value. Furthermore, it can be changed between direct and line output. All data entries can be done while the generator is operating.
  • Page 22: Output & Coupling Paths

    The safety symbol, the direct output and the output voltage and output current are displayed. In addition, the user is able to see nominal values of the peak voltage, reputation time and the synchronization period. Additionally, these values can be modified while the test is proceeding. It happens by simply pressing each particular function. The test stops when pushing the “STOP”...

  • Page 24: Synchronization Ac

    6.3.5 Synchronization AC To synchronize the surge signal with the main supply source it is necessary to adjust in the menu “Synchronization” and then “Line Sync.”. Further adjustments of the angle can be done in a range from 0° to 359° . However, if no power supply is connected to the EUT input at the rear view, it has to be entered “Async.”, otherwise it is impossible to get a Surge impulse of the generator.
  • Page 25: Magnetic Field

    7 Magnetic field 7.1 General Information The test setup is described in accordance to the norm IEC 61000-4-9. A SCC waveform will be created. For the magnetic field the coil gets connected directly via banana plug to the surge output HI and COM as written in position 6 and Position 7 in Figure 5-1.
  • Page 26: Coil Antenna

    “Rep.Data”. However, first connect device to USB port. 7.1.1 Coil antenna When the AXOS5 has started, the setup menu contains a standard predefined coil in accordance to IEC 61000-4-9. It can be up to 10 different coil factors added to the menu.
  • Page 27: Transition

    7.1.2 Transition In “Transition” (Figure 7-5) the user can adjust the “Field Strength”, “Sync. Phase” and “Alternative Polarity”. The description from capture 6.3.3 is valid, except “peak voltage” has been changed to “field strength”. The other parameters stay equal, since an OCC will be applied to the coil antenna and is basically a Surge impulse. Figure 7-5: Magnetic field transition When all parameters has been entered then simply confirming with ok and in the menu is showing “transition on”, this indicates the settings will be applied to the coil antenna when pushing the “start”...

    8 Electrical Fast Transient Burst 8.1 General information The Burst generator generates Electrical Fast Transient Bursts (EFT) as described in IEC 61000-4-4. The source impedance of the generator is 50 . The burst is a common mode transient, coupled simultaneously to all selected paths with respect to ground.

    The following graphic represents the pre-compliance mode. In comparison with the standard menu, every command gets displayed the entire visual description of the function is described through purple bows. Main advantage of the pre-compliance mode is that the parameter can be changed while the test is operating.

  • Page 35: External Transformer

    9.3.2 External transformer The only connection from the external transformer (Figure 9-6) with the compact immunity tester happens through V dip and N’ at the rear view via banana plug. L and N from the external transformer gets connected to the power supply. The output voltage (between V dip and N) gets displayed as adjusted at the transformer.

    9.3.4 Transition The Figure 9-7 shows the “transition” menu. It is possible to select independently “Duration”, “Interval”, “Phase” and “Alternate polarity”. To be able to select “phase” the Synchrony has to be either set as Synchronization or external Synchronization, otherwise it is not possible to access it. Eventually, every parameter can be changed by pushing the certain value.
