MX Compliance Test Systems
Harmonics and Flicker testing of high power AC products
Introduction
The MX45/30-CTS Series is a complete, turn-
key compliance test system for EN IEC 61000-
3-12 (Harmonics), EN IEC 61000-3-11 (Flicker)
and various EN IEC 1000-4 AC immunity tests.
Consisting of an AC power source, a power
analyzer & conditioning system (PACS-3-75) and a
PC based data acquisition system, the MX45/30-
CTS provides a complete turn-key solution for IEC
testing. The Windows™ based MXCTS software
performs all required IEC tests and generates
detailed test reports. Comprehensive data files are
stored on disk to allow post test analysis.
The MXCTS system implements various IEC
standards including the new Amendment 14 and
provides a software only upgrade path for future
standard changes.
Three phase loads are connected using rear
terminal blocks.
Covered EN61000 Standards
The following tests can be performed using an
MX45/30 based CTS system:
EN 61000-3-12 Harmonics
EN 61000-3-11 Flicker CTSH
EN 61000-3-2 Harmonics (option)
EN 61000-3-3 Flicker (option)
EN 61000-4-11 Pre-Compliant
EN 61000-4-13 Harmonics and Inter-
harmonics (requires
option -413)
EN 6100-4-17 DC Ripple
EN 61000-4-14 Voltage Fluctuations
EN 61000-4-28 Frequency Variations
EN 61000-4-29 DC Dips and Interruptions
(Pre-compliance)
EN 61000-3-12
Harmonics
Full compliance testing for current harmonics
emissions products is supported. Support for the
2001 version (Amendment 14) of the Harmonics
standard is built-in for full compliance with both
harmonics standards.
EN 61000-3-11 Flicker
Flicker PST & PLT results are displayed in real-time
during the entire test. No need to wait until
the entire test is completed to know if the EUT
passed or failed. A Ztest reference impedance
(OMNI-3-75) is provided for IEC 61000-3-11
flicker testing (-CTSH) and a Zref (OMNI-3-37MX)
for IEC 61000-3-3 flicker testing (-CTSL).
Configurations
The MX45/30-CTS system is available with flicker
reference impedance for either IEC61000-3-11
(-CTSH) or IEC 61000-3-3 (-CTSL). A system with
both impedances and both high and low power
software is available as well (-CTSHL). It is strongly
recommended that California Instruments supply
the required PC with the test system due to A/D
card compatibility. (Option CIC-PC)
CENELEC - Amendment 14
The MX45-CTS, with its flexible architecture,
allows the user to select measurements to be
made per the recently harmonized amendment,
or older standards.
