NoiseKen released Impulse Noise Simulator for circuit boards and low voltage components.

Pulse output settings from 50V
Test noise resistance of circuit boards
and low voltage components

The impulse noise simulator tests the resistance of electronic equipment by simulating quick rise-time high-frequency noise due to discharge between the contacts of switching devices and arc discharge generated from electronic motors.
The impulse noise simulator INS-S100 can output pulses from 50V, allowing to evaluate the noise resistance of circuit boards and low voltage components during product development, and during analysis of malfunctions occurred in the market.

● Easy testing of circuit boards' noise resistance due to the pulse output voltage from 50V.
● Easy noise immunity assessment due to possibility to change the output voltage during pulse output.
● "TEST TIME" setting available.
● Lightweight and compact due to no decoupling network (CDN) included.
● Test the noise resistance of signal lines using optional coupling adapters.
● Test the noise resistance of circuit boards using optional radiation probes.

Is EFT/B sufficient to reproduce malfunctions of EUTs?

― Current immunity testing for transient phenomena defined by international standards describes a test method that applies a waveform simulating typical electromagnetic noise that occurs in nature, such as ESD, EFT/B and lightning surge.
― However, in the actual field, we can be affected by various noises beyond those phenomena described in the standard.
― In case of the EFT/B test, it provides only limited power line noise test and sometimes is difficult to reproduce design failures.
― NoiseKen’s INS (Impulse Noise Simulator) provides a unique test method that covers the noise phenomena which cannot be reproduced by the EFT/B test defined by the international standard IEC 61000-4-4.

Tired of Cleaning Melt Flow Indexer?

Cleaning of Melt Flow Index Tester is an important issue for operators ☹

― Each time one sample is tested, the cylinder and die must be cleaned…
― Operators must completely clean the cylinders and dies…
― If not cleaned completely, the test sample left in the cylinder and die leads to inaccurate measurement result…
― Operators’ cleaning skills, time, and manpower are required…

Low GWP refrigerant R-448A is available!

As the environmental impact of the refrigerant has become increasingly important in the past years, ETAC has launched a very low GWP and R-448A, which has lower GWP than R-449A, is now used for our temperature and humidity chamber. This climate friendly alternation reduces the GWP by 65% compared to R-404A and minimizes the environmental impact.

By 2022, the use of R-404A will be banned gradually in US, and in Europe effective 2020, any units with GWP more than 2500 will be banned. For more details, please contact us.
