Airbus induced lightning tests to ADB0100.1.2

10/06/2011

Press releaseIssued by EMC Partner AG.

The latest Airbus specification for the A350 aircraft requires injection of both voltage and current impulses into cable bundles. This new test method is possible using existing EMC PARTNER DO-160 test systems and a new coupler type. This is only possible because the EMC PARTNER generator design uses a "Hybrid" impulse circuit design.

Our many years of experience and the fact that over 70 DO-160 systems have been sold places our customers in a good position to meet this new requirement.

Airbus Voltage Spike Testing on Power supplies to ABD0100.1.8

MIG2000-6 is a modular generator capable of delivering all 5 impulse types required by the latest ABD0100.1.8 standard. The latest edition specifies testing on 230V power supplies using impulses with pulse durations from 10us up to 400us and impulse amplitudes up to 2kV. MIG2000-6 with the AMD24C1 module and CN-MIG-BT4 coupler meet and exceed this requirement.

Up to 4 systems can be synchronized to facilitate the simultaneous test on multiple power interfaces.

As well as the ABD0100.1.8 tests, MIG2000-6 mainframe can be fitted with modules to meet MIL-STD-461 CS115 impulse excitation, CS116 damped sinusoidal transients and CS106 power lead transient requirements
