EFT Generators
An EFT, or electrical fast transient, also called a burst, is commonly triggered by the opening of a switch through which current is flowing; arcing occurs between the contacts as the switch is opened. To minimize the occurrence of this sudden, violent burst of electricity, an EFT generator simulates EFTs as part of EMC conducted immunity testing. They operate with a short rise time and high rate of repetition and generate relatively low-energy transients to emulate inductive load switching. While the contacts remain close together, arcing commences at a low voltage and high frequency, then at a high voltage and low frequency as the contacts separate.
ATEC offers affordable EFT generator rental rates for products from leading EMC manufacturers like Haefely, EMC Partner, EM Test, and more. We are also able to calibrate certain models at our in-house lab.
ATEC's EFT/burst test systems are often multifunction, so they fulfill the IEC 61000-4-4 test and can additionally complete other transient tests. Thanks to our robust rental inventory, we provide complete conducted immunity test systems including a transient generator, power line CDNs, coupling clamps, and oscilloscopes for verification.
