Safety and Regulatory Notices
Using the system can cause danger and damage for life and limb of the
operators or third parties, to the system itself or to other material assets. In
addition to the manufacturer´s countermeasures, the operator must also take
appropriate countermeasures against danger due to residual energy. The
personnel must be briefed about these dangers and the necessary
countermeasures during instruction.
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases
of operation of this instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or
with specific warnings or instructions elsewhere in this manual violates safety
standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the instrument.
Keysight Technologies assume no liability for the customer´s failure to comply
with these requirements. Please read the also the section Intended Use.
Danger to life in case of misuse at the outputs.
The Scienlab Regenerative AC Emulator does not have its own insulation guard.
If the system emulates an electrical isolation against PE at the output, the local
installation regulations and guidelines must be observed.
This would be in the case of the emulation of an IT network in AC mode, or
generally in DC mode.
Danger to life due to high voltages.
Some components are still supplied with voltage after switching off (wiring color
orange).
Before installation and upkeep, turn off and lock out all external voltage supplies.
Only disconnect or establish electrical connections in a voltage-free condition.
Danger to life due to missing covers!
In case of misapplication, missing protective cover can lead to severe injury, burns or
death in the event of shock and arc flash.
Do not remove cover under load and not operate without cover in place.
After installation and upkeep, the previously removed protective cover must be
replaced.
Depending on the set output voltage and current, the system sometimes releases
large amounts of energy at the output.
Touching the connection bars inside the system or the DUT terminals can occur life-
threatening body currents.
Never touch, connect, or disconnect the connecting lines to the DUT during

Functional Description
The SL1200A serves as a regenerative, bi-directional, 3-phase AC
source/sink, with optional DC source/sink. The system can be parameterized
in voltage- or current-controlled mode (Voltage Priority or Current Priority).
The system was given a compact design with integrated measuring and is
available as Low-Voltage (600 V, model SL1201A –SL1203A) or High Voltage
(1200 V, model SL1212A –1213A) variant, depending on the respective
application.
The SL1200A consists of three (45 kVA) or six (90 kVA) power stages (RPS –
regenerative power system), there are two different types of power stages,
low voltage (600 V AC, optional 500 V DC) or high voltage (1200 V AC,
optional 1000 V DC). The power stages can be parametrized and used
individually or together with each other. Thus, various configurations are
possible.
In AC mode, the SL1200A is operated with a sinusoidal AC voltage output and
an adjustable basic frequency of 40 to 75 Hz. This enables the operator to
supply 1-, 2- or 3-phase consumers, and test them in operation by means of
targeted error emulation (Voltage Priority). If the SL1200A is configured in
Current Priority mode, the power stage synchronizes with the voltage
measured at the terminals and regulates the specified (positive or negative)
current.
The following table shows examples for AC grid emulations.

station is tested, the system can be used to emulate the HV battery in the
vehicle (Current Priority). If, instead, the vehicle with a battery is tested, the
SL1200A can emulate a DC charging station (Voltage Priority). If a battery is
connected to the SL1200A, the battery must be monitored by a battery
management system (BMS). The outputs at the DC mode are always
electrically isolated against ground (PE).
To test the DUT to mains fluctuations, the SL1200A emulates electrical supply
grids with different harmonics and interharmonics. Harmonics can be
generated in Voltage Priority or Current Priority modes. The SL1200A can
measure and control 50 harmonics and additionally control two free
frequencies for interharmonics. The limits are based on the requirements of
the standards EN61000-2-2 and EN61000-4-13 as well as UL2231-2.
The system features two separate current paths, the power path and the logic
path. The main switch uses the power path to disconnect the power stages
and the grounding conductor interconnections from the mains. In the event of
an emergency stop, the main switch switches the output to a safe condition.
Figure 1: Two current paths of SL1200A
When switching the system off via the main switch, some components
connected in the logic chain (e. g. measurement and control unit (MCU),
switch and safety relay) are not switched off by the supply disconnecting
device and continue to be supplied with voltage (lines marked orange) to
maintain communication between system and operating software, even in the
event of an emergency stop. The logic path can be switched off via the circuit
breaker. This switch is located on the front behind the detachable panel.
When the logic path is switched off, the power path cannot be switched on.
Optionally, the system is equipped with an extended safety device (Increased
Safety function, - ST2/SD2 option). Before the system can be switched on via
the main switch, the safety relay checks all safety-relevant switching

18/51
Scienlab Regenerative AC Emulator –SL1200A Series –Operating Instructions
components of the system after the circuit breaker is switched on. The system
can only be switched on via the main switch after a positive check.
Via the customer interface, the system can be configured as either a 1- to 3-
phase AC source/sink or a DC source/sink (DC optional, -SDC option).
Channel switchover between AC and DC operation may only be performed in
load-free state. AC and DC operation use separate terminal blocks (DC
terminals only on -SDC option) (see documentation Getting Started Guide).
System Arrangement
The SL1200A consists of two rack variants with three or six power stages;
both rack variants are available as low-voltage and high-voltage. The low-
voltage variants SL1201A –SL1203A are designed with an output voltage of
up to 600 V, an output current of up to 125 A, and an output power of up to
90 kVA. The high-voltage variants SL1212A –1213A, however, provide an
output voltage of up to 1,200 V, an output current of up to 65 A, and an
output power of up to 90 kVA.
Communication to both a control computer and the parallel-connected
systems is ensured by Ethernet interfaces.
Internal fans are responsible for cooling the interior of the system. These are
integrated into each individual power stage. Ventilation slots for discharging
the exhaust air are located at the rear of the system.
All essential connections are also located on the rear side of the system, as
shown in the following image.
