Transient Recorder
The "SATURN Transient Recorder Series" provides modular expandable measurement systems for various requirements:
- up to 240 channels depending on the selected housing (portable, desk, 19" rack-mountable)
- analog inputs (200kS/s...1GS/s), optionally fiber-coupled measurement probes (FO)
- analog outputs, digital I/O, controller, incremental encoder, signal conditioning
- comfortable user software with extension packages (e.g. for Circuit Breaker Testing, Switching & Lightning Impulse Tests according to standard IEC 60060-1, IEC 60060-2 , IEC 61083 - 1 , IEC 61083-2 , STL / Short-Circuit-Testing-Liaison , ...)
- Programming Interface (development of scripts and user interfaces for application-specific solutions)
Sequencer / Cycle Timer (Trigger Generator)
The "SATURN Sequencer / Cycle Timer" is a programmable digital control unit. It enables test laboratories to perform high-precision real-time control of test equipment and/or DUTs (devices under test):
- up to 192 inputs/outputs, electrical and/or fiber-optic (FO)
- 10ns step size, 20ppm accuracy
- resolution of 1/100 degree or synchronization with external pilot reference signals
(e.g. main grid or generator frequency 16 2/3Hz .. 50/60Hz .. 400Hz ..) - operating system independent program execution on real-time processor
Arbitrary Delay Generator
The "Arbitrary Delay Generator" serves test laboratories as an easy-to-use digital multi-trigger delay generator. It provides time-accurate digital triggers based on externally connected input signals:
- 1 analog input
- up to 9 digital inputs and up to 32 digital outputs, electrical and/or fiber optical (FO)
- freely configurable 1:1 or 1:n mapping of inputs and outputs
- 1ns delay resolution
- operating system independent program execution on real-time processor
Emergency Shutdown Controller
The "Emergency Shutdown Controller (ESC)" is a real-time protection system. During a test, it monitors various permissible levels of the measured signals depending on the test phase. If it is exceeded, it immediately triggers an emergency procedure via its digital outputs. Thereby it offers a high level of safety and the best possible protection for expensive equipment:
- available as stand-alone device or integrated in SATURN Transient Recorders
- optionally electrical and/or fiber-optic trigger outputs (FO)
- flexible programmable emergency shutdown sequence
- <1us response time
- operating system independent program execution on real-time processor
Lightning and Switching Impulse - Software Suite
The "LPT / SPT Software Suite" is specifically tailored for the use of SATURN Transient Recorders for Lightning and Switching Pulse Tests:
- customized user interface from the test engineer's point of view
- easy configuration of serial tests
- automated analysis and reporting
- complies with standards IEC 61083, IEC 60060-1 and IEC 60060-2
Air Power Generator
The "Air Power Generator" enables power supply for AMOtronics fiber-isolated probes, sensors, pre-amplifiers and other electrical components via compressed air. This provides a galvanically isolated power supply without time-consuming checking and replacing/recharging of batteries:
- perfect galvanic isolation
- automatic activation via compressed air
- output power up to 10W (peak 24W)
- different configurations (5VDC 4A, 12VDC 2A , 24VDC 1A)
- integrated backup battery for bridging compressed air fluctuations and failures
