Compact immunity test System
2Product description
2.1 Basic information
The AXOS
5
compact immunity test system integrates all of the best pieces of our stand alone test systems into one
single economic solution. It combines 5 kV Burst/EFT, Surge combination wave, AC/DC Dips & Interrupts, along with
an integrated single-phase coupling / decoupling network into one compact system. This allows for quick and
completely automated testing to the most common IEC standards.
AXOS
5
can either be operated via front panel by large colour graphic touch screen interface or remotely from the PC.
The menu together with the availability of predefined test routines for different standards makes testing easy and
reliable, even for less frequently users.
All the test parameters can be varied in a broad range. Together with the ability of changing test parameters during
test, AXOS
5
is not only the ideal product for compliance and pre-compliance testing, it is useful for monitoring &
debugging function during design phase.
A wide range of cost-efficient and user friendly coupling / decoupling networks for power lines as well as for
symmetrical and asymmetrical data- and signal-lines are available as options.
In Figure 2-1 is the starting menu of the ASOX5 version displayed. The menu is fully controlled by a touch screen.
Every command is entered through the touch screen. By pressing the Surge, EFT/Burst, Voltage Dips or Magnetic field
an under menu gets open. If purchasing an individual version for Surge (includes Magnetic field), EFT/Burst and
Voltage Dips it shows only the particular function.
Figure 2-1: Start display
After selecting one of the functions as shown in the Figure 2-1, there are generally two operating modes of the menu
available. Only in pre-compliance it is possible to change parameters even though the EUT is testing. In addition, by
pressing a function parameter a basic description gets open and describes the characteristic of it. The values can be
directly specified as for each criteria necessary. The same is possible in standard operating mode. Additionally Ipeak
and Upeak to the EUT gets displayed on the screen.
It is possible to come back from every application to the start menu as shown in Figure 2-1, when pressing the “home”
button. Every test procedure stops.
The LED on every output & coupling paths flashes when specific paths has been in the menu selected. This selection
is equal for Surge, Burst as well as Voltage Dips & Interrupts.

3.5 Integrated single-phase CDN
AXOS
5
provides an integrated single-phase coupling / decoupling network for Burst and Surge tests.
It is protected against over-current by an integrated protection circuit. Current limit can be selected between 1A to 16A
in the PROPERTIES menu.
The integrated CDN may be used with AC or with DC power lines.
The input of the integrated CDN (i.e. EUT Supply Input) must be connected to power lines which are protected by a
line safety switch equal or less 16A rated current and characteristic B or C.

Compact immunity test System
4Initial operation
4.1 Visual check
During transport AXOS
5
may be subjected to excessive shocks and vibrations, even though every care is taken by
HAEFELY Test AG to provide suitable packaging. Before operating the unit, check for signs of mechanical damage.
Damaged packing cases may by a sign of transport damage. Damage caused in transit must be reported to the
shipping agent immediately.
4.2 Installation
All safety measures must be followed, as described in Table 1-1.
4.3 Earth connection
The "Earth Stud" on the back panel must always be connected to a solid earth before the "EUT Supply
Input" is connected to power source. Cross section of connection must be at least 2.5mm squared.
4.4 EUT Supply Input
The "EUT Supply Inpu" on the back is the connection to the integrated single-phase CDN, which can be used
up to 16A / 264V.
There are three banana-plugs (stackable) delivered with the standard accessories set:
- black: line conductor
- blue: neutral conductor
- green/yellow: protection earth conductor
These banana plugs shall be mounted on a suitable connection cable.
The EUT Supply Input must be connected to power lines which are protected by a line safety switch
equal or less 16A rated current and characteristic B or C.

AXOS
5
Compact immunity test System 7
Inside the AXOS, there are filter capacitors connected between L-PE and N-PE, as required by the
standard.
These capacitors will cause a residual current, which will trip the residual current circuit breaker.
Hence, an isolation transformer needs to be inserted between main power supply and "EUT Supply Input" as shown in
Figure 4-1 below.
Figure 4-1: Transformer connection
Note:
N and PE need to be connected as shown in the figure. This enables that a possible follow current from the mains can
be delivered to the EUT.
All further equipment connected after the isolation transformer are not protected any more by the residual
current circuit breaker.
4.5 Connection to EUT
The L, N and PE banana sockets on the front panel are the outputs of the integrated single-phase CDN.
For power line testing, the EUT is connected here.
There are three banana-plugs (non-stackable) delivered with the standard accessories set:
- black: line conductor
- blue: neutral conductor
- green: protection earth conductor
These banana plugs shall be mounted on a suitable connection cable.
4.6 V dip Input
The "V dip" input is used to supply voltage having XX% level for Dips testing.
For example, for testing 40% Dips level, 92V supply need to be connected between "V dip" and neutral
(at nominal voltage 230V).
In case of interrupt testing i.e. 0% Dips test level, "V dip" must be connected to "N" (neutral) input, using
the purple coloured safety banana cable supplied with the standard accessories

contains predefined standards test for “Surge”, “Burst”, ”Magnetic field” and “Voltage Dips & Interrupts”
according to each particular norm. Each test can be selected and applied through the Generator to the EUT. The
Figure 5-4 reflects the save and option of data at the “Surge” generator. These application works similar for “Burst”,
“Magnetic field” and “Voltage Dips & Interrupts. The basic understanding of the tool is similar to normal office
applications. Data can be “load”, “Save”, “Save as”, “Copy” and “Delete” as for instance in word. These options occur
on the screen, when “file” button is pushed.
Figure 5-4: Save and load option of data
Two directories can be selected as shown in Figure 5-5. However, the “standard” directory can only read and load the
predefined test procedure in accordance to the particular norm. These files can only be read. The second directory is
“Internal”. The internal data (customized testing files) can be saved, loaded and deleted. Either of the directories can
only be accessed out of the particular menu, like for instance the “surge” generator.
In addition, the loaded program is displayed in the upper line in either of the standard and pre-compliance menu.

6.1 General information
Please read carefully the Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 in detail before first use of the Surge generator. The short voltage
impulse stays on the EUT during several µs. The peak voltage gets with the Axos5 up to 5 kV. The generator fulfils the
requirements according to the IEC 61000-4-5 norm. The source impedance of the generator is 2 Ω. The HI and COM
signals should be used from the beginning as scheduled, because in extern CDN the polarity becomes important. It
can be select either between the Hi and Com output or the coupling network (Position 9,10,11 in Figure 5-1).
6.2 Combination wave generator
In General waveforms are specified as open circuit voltage (OCV) and short circuit current (SCC). The Surge is applied
directly from the Generator to the Surge HI and COM output, the waveforms are specified in the next two under
captures. The function graphic and the key parameter can be read in the Table 6-1. In accordance to the IEC 60060-1
the front time for the OCV is 1,2 µs ± 30% and the SCC is 8 µs ± 20%.

Time to half value: T2 = 50µs ± 20%
Verification of the Surge output signal (HI and COM) in the front view can be done with the help of the in capture 12.1.1
described PDP 8000.

For verification of the output signal, a current transformer must be connected between position 6 and position 7 as
shown in Figure 5-1. EUT Supply Input must be disconnected. The current transformer from capture 12.1.2 is for the
verification necessary.
6.3 SU GE Menu
Test requirements must be achieved by the user according to the IEC 61000-4-5 norm. The safety standards as written
in Table 1-1 must be unconditionally fulfilled, when operating the AXOS

.
In the next step, the user selects either the pre-compliance or the standard operation mode. The Figure 6-3 and Figure
6-4 reflects either of the appliance modes. As seen by pressing on each particular function parameter a purple bow
comes up and the definition of the function gets displayed.
