(The Gun stand PS-806  in the photo is an optional accessory.)


GENERAL

The ESS-2000AX ESD Simulator generates highly consistent, repeatable ESD pulses up to 30kV in both contact and air discharge modes.  Compliant with IEC61000-4-2 standard, the unit features a 5.7-inch display, a lightweight gun and optic serial interface. 

A variety of capacitor and resistor units are available and are easily changeable within the gun.  The fully- programmable, menu-driven simulator offers three trigger modes.



FEATURES


  1. Fully programmable menu-driven simulator providing three operation modes: IEC standard, Manual and Sequence
  2. A 5.7-inch color LCD for easy setting and good visibility
  3. Unique shape for the operator's easy access to the control and displays even when the unit is put on the floor level (ground plane)
  4. Communications with PC through the optic serial interface
  5. A wide variety of the dedicated options

DISPLAY EXAMPLES

Display Examples in Korean               Display Examples in Chinese

TOP MENU
After pressing the main switch, press the EXIT key. This places the simulator in the initial menu, which displays three operational modes, trigger selection and utility.
Manual Mode

If you desire to operate the unit in the manual mode, press the corresponding function key.  The parameters to be set by the operator will appear.  Discharge method (contact/air discharge), discharge voltage, number of discharges and interval can be set.  Select the parameter by pressing the corresponding function key then the value can be altered by the Increment or Decrement key.

Contact discharges:  For contact discharge testing, after completion of required settings, press the START button and pull the trigger.  The simulator will then generate the required number of pulses at the required interval.  Pulling the trigger again will pause the unit.  Pulling again will restart the unit.

Air discharges:  For air discharge testing, after completion of setting, press the START key.  To carry out air discharges, pull and hold the trigger to maintain the HV relay in the on status and approach the discharge tip to the EUT.

When the SWEEP function is active, the simulator generates discharges in an automatic voltage ramp.  The initial, final and step voltages can be freely set. In this mode, the number of discharges set is that in each step

For example, when the simulator is set to 5kV for the initial voltage, 10kV for final voltage and 1kV for step voltage, in a way of 10 discharges at an interval of 1 second, it produces 10 pulses at 5kV at an interval of 1 second and proceeds to 6kV pulses, also 10 discharges.  These steps continue until the simulator has completed 10 pulses of 10kV.

Two different ways of pulling the trigger:  When the trigger is pulled and then released quickly, the simulator operates in a way that it pauses before it proceeds to next step voltage.  For continuous operation, pull the trigger for more than 2 seconds.  A sign of "CONTINUE" is indicated on the screen and the simulator runs a complete step ramp test without further operatorfs trigger.

IEC Standard Mode
The four test levels are preset. Select the desired level and run a test.

Sequence Mode
The simulator can store up to 99 tests including Sweep settings. Each test is given a number (called Unit No). Any combination of units selected from 99 tests in the Manual Mode can consist of one test sequence having 30 units maximum.

Twenty test sequences can be stored. For a unit setting, press EDIT button. Settings of voltage, etc. can be done in the same way as in the Manual mode.



OPTIONS


Automatic ESD Eliminator  01-00013A
Connected to the ESS-2000AX simulator main unit, the Automatic ESD Eliminator automatically removes residual charges on the EUT.  A control signal from the ESS-2000AX turns on the switch of the eliminator to drain away the residual charges to the ground.  

Two operation modes are provided: turn-on after each discharge and turn-on after preset number of discharges (Not compliant with the standard).

Gun holder   03-00056A
A gun holder that can be screwed to the left side of ESS-2000AX.
