Multi Channel Optical Fibre Verification
The multi-channel optical fibre test system is used in the development and qualification of single mode optical fibres. The fibres are exposed to environmental influences in a climatic chamber in order to analyse the data on insertion loss and reflection. In addition, the current temperature in the climatic chamber is documented. Insertion loss measurement is performed with the help of an optical power meter, laser sources and optical switches. An Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) from Exfo is used for the reflection measurements. The system was designed for the simultaneous characterization of 15 sample fibres and one reference fibre.

Protector Conductor Test / Ground Continuity Test / Ground Bond Test
Testing the protective conductor is indispensable for assemblies, devices and systems of protection class I because it reduces the risk of life-threatening electrical accidents.The test checks whether the protective earth (PE) fulfils the criteria specified in the standards and can correctly discharge the current occurring in case of a fault.The ground continuity test checks whether the protective earth conductor is connected continuously to all metallic enclosure parts that can be touched by the user. The test can be carried out with low currents and voltages (simple continuity test).

Development
If possible we use standard market instruments and components. However not every task can be solved technically and economically reasonable. That is when our development department comes to place. Our colleagues already developed many approaches from little, practicable assemblies up to holistic measurement features. These solutions are customer oriented and together with a special firmware this is often a useful solution.

Maxirack - 200 x 60 x 80 cm
OTP2 module no003
The rack serves as the basic framework for your individually designed test system. Various OTP² modules can be installed in the 200 x 60 x 80 cm rack in order to meet the most varied of test requirements.The modular architecture of the OTP (Open Test Platform) is based on a flexible instrumentation matrix, LXI-based sources and measuring devices, combined with a high-quality transfer interface for connecting the test adapters. The systems can easily be expanded with customer- and application-specific functions. We use standardization to build cost-effective systems that still fit your requirements exactly.

Power Distributions
LXinstruments Power Distribution Units (PDU) provide all of the functionality required to power a test system in a compact 19-inch rack. This means that devices can be supplied with both mains voltage and DC voltage. With the soft-on-off function, the PDU can be controlled remotely via remote buttons and other potential-free contacts. We carry single-phase devices for the 16 A connection to three-phase devices for the 3x63 A or for the 125 A connection.

Isolated D/A Converter 8 Channel, 250kSa/s
OTP2 module no.187
The PXIe‑4322 is a channel-isolated analog output module with built-in signal conditioning. The module provides accurate, simultaneous dynamic voltage and current outputs. By combining signal conditioning and D/A converters in one device, the PXIe‑4322 isolated analog output module offers smaller dimensions and higher measurement performance. In current mode, the module operates in all four quadrants, allowing current to be drawn and sourced. Thanks to isolation and outputs for higher voltages and currents, the module is particularly suitable for applications in the automotive sector.

Modular Functional Test Platform
LX-OTP2
The OTP² system platform has recently been available in both the PXI and LXI versions. The OTP2 system platform enables the cost-effective and fast implementation of function test systems based on defined modules and function blocks. Thanks to the open system interfaces, customer-specific adjustments can be made at any time without any problems. When considering options for your next generation functional test system, it is important to assess the entire life cycle of the system and the associated costs and efforts. Use OTP² to accelerate development cycles and reduce the development effort for new functional test systems.

OTP-Based Test System
Power electronics assemblies often cannot be tested using conventional technology for their electrical performance. Due to the adaptability of the instrumentation, the OTP concept offers an ideal platform even beyond the space requirements of several control cabinets. In order to achieve high test flexibility with different assemblies, the system was equipped with three-phase AC sources and AC loads as well as a precise three-phase power meter. DC sources and loads with different current and voltage ranges cover the test of frequent DUT operating parameters. Time-dependent voltage or current signals can be stimulated by an arbitrary generator with power amplifier. General measurements such as current, voltage, frequency, resistance can be carried out flexibly at various test points using the matrix concept. An oscilloscope with RF multiplexer is available for high-frequency measurements such as residual ripple, switching processes, etc.

TSCOE4 Operator Interface Software Module
The TSCOE4 Operator Interface provides a graphical user interface for the operator or the implementer in a production environment. It permits selecting the test sequence and supports parametrization of the test. During the test sequence, the current measurement values are displayed in relation to the relevant limits and the pass/fail evaluations for each individual test. After completion of the test sequence, the global test result is visualized.In addition, there are online statistics available to the user, which show the measurement value distribution within the current batch.The editor which is supplied with the product makes it possible to adapt the user interface language to any new deployment location. Several languages – German, English and Chinese – have already been implemented and are available out of the box.

Multifunctional Safety Tests
Manufacturers of electrical or electronic products are required by law to carry out an electrical safety test before placing them on the market. This final test takes place at the end of the manufacturing process and is therefore also referred to as an EOL test (end-of-line). Depending on the prescribed standard and directive, the following parameters are tested:- Leakage current and discharge current- Insulation resistance or the insulation strenth- Dielectric strength or electric strength- Correct installation of the protective conductor (ground continuity and ground bond test)- Faultless functioning of the product under the conditions defined for intended use (function or run test

AC / DC - Power Supplies
The spectrum of DC power supplies ranges from simple power adapters with only one output voltage to complex controllable power sources. Power adapters, often also called plug-in mains adapters, are mainly used for small electrical appliances (such as telephones, strings of light, notebooks, etc.) in private households. They are included in the scope of delivery of the product and only serve to supply power with a defined output voltage of 6 V or 12 V, for example. The output power is usually limited to < 200 W due to the simple design.
