Electrical Safety Testing
Manufacturers and operators of electrical equipment are required to carry out an electrical safety test within the framework of the applicable regulations. This is to prevent accidents caused by malfunctions in electrical equipment, such as fire, explosion as well as injuries and personal damage. The tests to be carried out are specified in national (VDE/DIN) and international (EN/IEC) standards. After passing the test, the product is considered safe for the entire life cycle, provided it is left in its original condition and used for its intended purpose.

Railway and Traffic Engineering Solutions
In the past, LXinstruments has already implemented a number of application-specific system solutions which cater for these special requirements. These solutions are often used to replace systems which have been in production for many decades. Our systems are not only employed for testing signal box technology modules, but also for testing train control system which are installed in the track bed. Due to the strong magnetic fields which occur at the DUT in combination with high voltages, the test systems require specific technical safeguards.

Aerospace and Aviation Solutions
SCOEs and EGSEs by LXinstruments are used during test and validation of satellite assemblies and modules in aerospace applications. As an example, we implemented solar array simulators, battery simulators and high-power load racks for a German satellite manufacturer for testing satellite power supply systems. Due to the high power ratings, the systems are partially equipped with water cooling. Specialized switching modules were developed for switching DC currents at high voltage levels; these can be programmed with SCPI commands via Ethernet.Our modular OTP² functional test platform is ideally suited for implementing durable, reliable test systems, e. g. for in-flight entertainment applications. Since the OTP2 platform is based on open interfaces, it can be quickly and easily adapted to any required communication busses and ARINC interfaces.

LED Burn-In Test
Burn-in system, based on LXI instrumentation, for concurrent testing of up to 80 DUTs in a climatic chamber. Devices to be tested include modern light emitting diodes and LED modules.The system consists of 2 control cabinets, each with 40 independent supply and measurement channels. Each channel can be configured individually via the operator software (current or voltage, including the relevant limit values). The software supports logging of current and voltage values for each DUT on all 80 channels with a sampling rate of <1s. Additionally, the software and system also support digital I/O channels, e. g. for controlling the climatic chamber. Inputs for connecting temperature sensors are also provided.

Database Evaluation Software
Magpie 2
LXinstruments Magpie 2 is a further developed evaluation and data mining application for our test database. The data to be evaluated can be preselected using complex, easily configurable filters. Based on the selected data, reports and trend analyzes can then be created and statistical studies, machine and process capability analyzes carried out. Administration of the database is also easily possible for appropriately authorized users via a graphical user interface.

Isolated Digital I/O 60VDC, 150mA
OTP2 module no.186
The National Instruments PXI-6528, PCI-6528, and PXI-6529 Digital I/O Modules are isolated digital I/O interfaces for PCI and PXI. These modules can use inputs from NI 6528 and PXI 6529 devices to capture the status of sensors, actuators, and logic devices. NI 6528 devices have 24 SSR outputs for switching external devices with input currents up to 150 mA. The NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices are suitable for a variety of applications, from automotive development and industrial factory automation to aerospace, laboratory research, and biomedical applications due to their high current handling capacity and isolation.

HV Test System up to 20000 Volt
Insulated test booth with large space for test items. 2 banana sockets for AC connection and 4 banana sockets for the DC connection of the DUTs. IC’s are tested in a long-term test. These are checked in an oil bath so that there are no air gaps to reduce the insulation. Maximum voltage 20 kV. Therefore, insulation tests must be carried out. Ensuring the standard-compliant test. For the safety of the operating personnel, the test cell is electrically locked while the high voltage measurement is active.

Test Enclosures
The HV test hood, developed by us in accordance with EN50191 standard (erection and operation of fixed and temporary electrical test installations), is designed for testing large quantities in ongoing production. The ergonomic design ensures fatigue-free operation even during repetitive work sequences. Equipped with all safety-relevant functions, such as safety switch and locking of the hood cover during the test sequence, the operator is optimally protected at all times.The interchangeable adapter plate within the test cell allows quick adaptation for different test conditions and test situations.

Maintenance & Maintenance-/Service Contract
With cars it is easy: Change of oil, check of breaks and V-belt .. etc. - that is normal. But your test system does not need all these things. However it makes sense to look after your test system occasionally and check or change special idems. If you take the time and plan a preventive maintenance your test system will have less unplanned failure times. Less dust means less heat and slower ageing of electronic components.

Database API
Woodcreeper
LXinstruments Woodcreeper provides a convenient database API for our MySQL test database. It allows manipulation of the database from within the test sequence, for instance when data from upstream process steps needs to be accessed. Third party test systems can also be easily linked to the LXinstruments test database. One license for Woodcreeper comes with the TSCOE4 system license; standalone licenses are also available.

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.
