PRODUCT INFORMATION
FEATURES
The 95x is an advanced Electrical Safety Analyzer with many standard features which make it unique in this field.
•
Multiple Capabilities. The 95x is capable of a very wide range of safety tests and is also capable of making
specialty measurements on components
–
all in the same instrument.
•
Multiple Safety features. The 95x has many built-in safety features, such as ground current detection,
DUT safety ground disconnection detection, and more. The standard digital interface allows the user to
use safety interlocks and remote safety indicators with ease.
•
No regrets. With all of the features shown here, the 95x is capable of so much more than the typical
users’ present requirements, the user will not regret choosing the 95x when new more stringent
requirements come up in the future.
•
Wide range of voltages and currents generated. The 95x has a test voltage range fro
m a few 10’s of volts
to several 10’s of kilovolts (for withstand testing) and a
test
current range from a few microamps to 10’s
of amps (for chassis ground bond testing) at DC or over a frequency range from 20 to 500Hz. The 95x is
not limited to just a few voltages, currents or frequencies, the user can specify the actual level and
frequency they desire. The 95x is not weak either
–
loads up to 500VA can be accommodated.
•
Wide range of voltages and currents measured. The 95x does not just have a wide range of generated
voltages and currents
–
it can measure them too. From microvolts to
10’s of
kilovolts, and from
100’s of
picoamps to 100’s of milliamps
, all are measured by the 95x. Using its DSP based technology the 95x
knows the difference between breakdown currents, leakage currents and arcing currents and gives you all
of the results.
•
Advanced measurements. When it comes to AC measurements the 95x does not just measure the basics -
the 95x measures total, in phase and quadrature components all of the time and makes available more
advanced results such as in phase resistance, quadrature reactance, capacitance and dissipation factors.
•
Result Analysis. The 95x does not just measure, it analyses the measurements
–
after a test has been run
the minimum, maximum, average, and final measurements are available, a running total of the passes and
failures for each test step are also maintained across multiple runs.
•
Not just “does not breakdown” but “does breakdown” too. The 95x is not only capable of testing
that a
DUT does not breakdown, but it is also capable of testing that a surge suppressor type device does
breakdown at the correct voltage. Ever worried if that surge suppressor you disconnected while safety
testing was correctly reconnected, does it work, is it in specification? Not a problem for the 95x
–
it can
be tested after safety testing.
•
The 95x adapts itself to the load automatically. The 95x does not have the load restrictions so often found
(and so often hidden in the small print) in other safety analyzers
–
load capacitances up to a farad during
DC withstand testing, highly inductive loads when low resistance testing, and more, are automatically
accommodated by the 95x adapting itself to the actual load during each test. Measurements on DUTs like
solar panels and computer system line filters are made by the 95x with ease.
•
Standalone operation. The 95x can be programmed by the user to perform up to 254 test steps in a
sequence. Each step is automatically performed by the 95x either with or without user intervention as
the user desires. Up to 100 such sequences can be defined and maintained in the instrument; no
