T2000 Transformer
for Low-Frequency
Conducted Susceptibility Testing
Application
The AE Techron T2000 Audio-Bandwidth
Transformer was designed to meet or ex-
ceed the LF conducted susceptibility test
requirements of DO 160 Section 18. The
T2000 is used to apply the required test
signals to the lines under test for ripple
voltage tests and continuous or transient
conducted immunity tests.
It may also be used as a 2-to-1 step-
down transformer. The secondary can
support up to 40 AP.
Description
The T2000 transformer supports up to
200W and is able to pass up to 40APon
the secondary. The turns ratio provides a
two-to-one step down.
The T2000 provides convenient input
connectors via binding posts. Standard
0.75-inch spacing of binding posts allows
use of standard plugs. Output is via Multi
Contact 125A plugs.
Features
• Frequency response – 10 Hz to 250 kHz
• Turns ratio – 2:1 step down
• Audio power – 200W
• Meets the LF Conducted Susceptibility
test requirements of DO 160 Section 18
• Circuit breaker protected from
over-current on secondary
• Durable steel and high-density poly-
ethylene case for impact resistance
A thermal breaker protects the unit
against over-current conditions on the
primary. A 35ARMS breaker protects the
unit against over-current conditions on
the secondary.Arugged, impact-resis-
tant case and robust design protects the
transformer from accidental damage.
The T2000 transformer is for use by
experienced staff.
