power frequency magnetic field generator

Power Frequency Magnetic Field Generator

  • Power frequency magnetic field generator, 50/60 Hz — generates continuous power-frequency magnetic fields for immunity testing per IEC/EN 61000-4-8 and all derived product standards.
  • Magnetic field strength up to 100 A/m — covers the continuous field test levels defined in IEC 61000-4-8 when used with a matched inductive loop antenna.
  • User-selectable 50 Hz or 60 Hz operation — matches the mains frequency of the EUT’s intended market.
  • Standalone turnkey solution with Com-Power loop antennas — with the APF-5060-11 inductive coil, antenna positioner, and EUT stand it forms a complete IEC 61000-4-8 test system.
  • Current-controlled field generation based on coil factor — the generator sets output current from the coil factor of the connected loop to produce the required field strength.
  • Two shrouded banana sockets for the loop antenna — convenient and finger-proof connection of the inductive coil.
  • Full front-panel control plus PC remote operation — fiber-optic interface allows remote control by PC software, with pre-defined coil factors for all Com-Power loops and a user-defined coil factor option for any loop with a known factor.
  • Suited to household appliances, IT, industrial, and medical equipment — products evaluated for susceptibility to power-frequency magnetic fields from transformers, motors, and mains wiring; three-year warranty.
