Teseq Schaffner MD 300

MD300 Surge Current Sensor

The MD 300 probe has been specially designed to verify surge current pulses as specifi ed in IEC/EN 61000-4-5, ANSI C62.41 and their derivates.

The main advantage of the MD 300 current probe is, that the measuring system is physically isolated from the circuit under test.

The MD 300 current probe is ready to use as coming along with pre-mounted coaxial cable. The BNC-end plug needs to be connected to the high-impedance input or 50 Ù input of an ordinary memory oscilloscope. Then the conductor carrying the surge current to be measured is passed through the hole in the current probe. The resulting voltage wave shape on the oscilloscope will then be an authentical reproduction of the actual current wave shape within the given accuracy.

The probe can be used for current pulse verifi cation on surge generators. Optional FISCHER or LEMO connectors are available for matching the safety banana connectors of the shorting cable to the HV output of the generator. For monitoring the EUT current during a test, an additional IEC adaptor with the safety banana connectors can be connected to the generator EUT output for observation of one lead at a time.
