When your customers demand more, are you ready to deliver?
From avionics to electronic ballast to uninterruptible power
supplies, customers are demanding products that can use
power efficiently while handling all kinds of ac line distur-
bances. To make sure your products meet these growing
expectations, test them with the 6800 series. It’s easy to simu-
late either clean or distorted ac power to evaluate how your
products respond.
All the tools you need for ac product testing
These “one-box” solutions provide everything you need to
generate, measure and analyze ac power. Use the built-in sine,
clipped sine and square waves or create your own with the
arbitrary waveform generator. Three transient modes (step,
pulse and list with up to 100 sequenced output changes)
simulate surges, sags, brownouts and other power quality
problems. The 6811B, 6812B, and 6813B also include dc
capability.
The built-in 16-bit power meter/analyzer precisely measures
all important parameters, including rms voltage, peak and rms
current, inrush currents, frequency, phase, real and apparent
power, and power factor. You can analyze harmonic distortion
up to the 50
th
harmonic with both magnitude and phase results.
The 14760A series Regulatory Test Solution software mod-
ules give you compliance grade testing capabilities at a real
attractive price for any phase of product design. Designing a
product to comply to the regulations is an integral way of
ensuring that it doesn’t become an end-of-the-line hurdle. The
advanced diagnostic capabilities can give you a jump-start on
any necessary design changes. Ultimately, you can save time
and money by performing your own compliance tests whenever
you need.
Easy ATE integration
More and more engineers are choosing the 6800 series because
it’s easy to operate from the front panel and easy to program.
Even creating a sequenced transient is as simple as entering
values in a list. Both GPIB and RS232 ports are standard, and
Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI)
and VXI plug&play drivers simplify the programming task.
Extensive protection to prevent load damage
In addition to overcurrent, overvoltage, overpower and
overtemperature protection, the 6800 series offers output
disconnect relays and remote inhibit capability (quickly
disabling the output of the ac source via a TTL signal) to
protect the device under test.
The 6800 series is backed by a three-year warranty and
Agilent’s worldwide network of support and service centers.
Application info
The 6800 series can help you test and improve your products.
You can easily perform:
1. Static testing–generating and measuring voltage, frequency,
and line current for meeting worldwide specifications.
2. Dynamic testing– generating ac line transients for limit
testing and design verification.
3. Specialty testing–measuring current harmonic content
and creating custom ac power waveforms (such as a
combined ac + dc signal to simulate a telephone ring).
4. Regulatory testing–measuring current harmonics,
voltage fluctuations and flicker emissions and generating
voltage and frequency disturbances and interharmonics
to determine product immunity.
