    Avertissement des tensions dangereuses qui peuvent être présentes Note: pay close attention to the maximum voltage and duty cycle limitations of each resistor. Applying voltages that are higher than the recommended maximum setting or duty cycles greater than indicated can cause damage to the LVB-2. Note: attention à la tension maximale et les limites du cycle de travail de chaque résistance. L’application de tensions plus élevées que le réglage maximum recommandé ou cycles de travail supérieures à celles indiquées peut causer des dommages à la LVB-2 WARNING The LVB-2 works with test voltages and currents which can cause harmful or fatal electric shock. To prevent accidental injury or death, these safety procedures must be strictly observed when handling and using the test instrument.

    CAUTION: Never connect LVB-2 to any mains circuit directly ATTENTION: Ne jamais connecter directement le LVB-2 à un circuit d’alimentation. General Information The LVB-2 is a load box used for the following applications: • Verifying that the failure detectors for a leakage current test sequence of your Associated Research electrical safety testing instrument are functioning properly. • Verifying failure limit thresholds for a leakage current test. • Verifying the three probe configurations of the instrument (G-L, PH-L and PH-PL) are functioning properly. The LVB-2 consists of loads based on the 132V/264V test voltages and failure limits listed in the IEC60601-1 test stan- dard for different types of leakage tests.
  • Page 8 LVB-2 Instruction Sheet The LVB-2 load box consists of resistors designed to induce a PASS or FAIL condition: • The Check Point knob position determines which resistor is set in the LVB-2 • Each check point has a PASS and FAIL condition. • For a list of all PASS and FAIL condition test settings, refer to the LVB-2 Technical Specifications table. • There is no PASS condition for the 7.5kΩ check point. • There is no FAIL condition for the 6.37MΩ check point The Probe Configuration switch can be set to two different positions depending on the verification type. Figure 2 shows the two different settings of the switch. This setting should match with the Probe Configuration setting on the Leakage Current test instrument. An example of the Probe Configuration setting on the OMNIA 2 is shown in Figure 3 along with the corresponding leakage test type.

  • Page 9 LVB-2 Instruction Sheet On the test instrument the Probe Configuration is programmed depending on the type of leakage test needed to be performed. The figure below shows Figure 3 - OMNIA 2 Probe Configuration Setup Instrument Connections (OMNIA 2) The diagram below shows all the connections needed to be made between the OMNIA 2 and the LVB-2: 1. DUT Output connections - Line, Neutral and Ground of the DUT outputs connect to the DUT adapter box. 2. DUT Adapter box – DUT adapter box for connection of Line, Neutral and Ground to the LVB-2 connector terminal. 3. L, N and G connections – This is the socket for the standard IEC320 connector. The line cord from the DUT adapt- er box connects these ports for making the Line, Neutral and Ground connections to the LVB-2 box. 4. Probe connections (OMNIA 2) – Probe Hi and Probe Lo ports on the OMNIA 2. 5. Probe connections (LVB-2) – Probe Hi and Probe Lo connections on the LVB-2. © Associated Research 2016...

    LVB-2 Instruction Sheet Test Setup To setup a test, connect the DUT outputs (L, N and G) of the leakage instrument to the line cord connector on the LVB-2. The two probe connections will also need to be made between the instrument and the LVB-2 for the verifi- cation of additional leakage test types. Program a test sequence based on the parameters listed on the test box for each load type. Select the appropriate Probe Configuration on the LVB-2 using the Probe Confguration switch. Refer to the specifications table and use the rotary switch to select the appropriate Check Point by rotating it clockwise or counter-clockwise: Ensure that the settings on your electrical safety tester are less than or equal to the maximum recommended voltage, current and duty cycle settings of the LVB-2. For each Check Point a PASS test and a FAIL test will be needed to programmed into the leakage test instrument for the pass/fail verifcation. When all connections have been made and the appropriate test programmed in the instrument, press the TEST button to begin the test. With the correct settings entered into the leakage test instrument, the leakage test instrument should record a failure for the FAIL settings and a pass for the PASS settings.
