INA 703 Magnetic field coil
INA 703 is the top end of a family of magnetic eld coils, designed for testing per
IEC 61000-4-8 (supply frequency magnetic elds) , IEC 61000-4-9 (pulsed magnetic
elds), IEC 61000-4-10 (oscillatory magnetic elds).
Thanks to a multi wire - 37 turns – concept , it allows the generation of elds higher
than 1000 A /m while using a current source rated for 30 A, so insures the possibility
to meet the IEC 61000-4-8 standards requirement of a current THD < 8% which can
be met only when using a synthetic current source.
INA 703 has a connection possibility after wire turn 1 and turn 5, which allows to
reach great accuracy when generating low amplitude elds.

2.1 General description

7The tap off after 1 turn is also used for tests per IEC 61000-4-9 and IEC 61000-4-10,
which both require a single turn coil.
For tests per IEC 61000-4-8, INA 703 can be used as an accessory to the Teseq
proine system, together with a NSG 1007- 5 kVA source, the INA 2141 impedance
box and the WIN 2120 software can generate supply frequency elds (50 and
60 Hz) up to 330 A/m continuously and 1100 A/m short term (3 s).
It can also be used with the MFO 6501 or 6502 current sources and the NSG 3000
series of generators and generate Supply frequency elds (50 and 60 Hz) up to
120 A/m continuously and 120 A/m short term (3 s).
For tests per IEC 61000-4-9, INA 703 can be used together with a classic combined
wave generator as available in NSG 3040 or NSG 3060 series plus a pulse wave
shape adaptor box INA 752.
For tests per IEC 61000-4-10, INA 703 can be connected to an adequate slow oscil-
latory waves generator.
Thanks to the multi wire concept and to the professional mechanical design, like U
shape base on rolls which allows convenient approach and positioning to the test
table, INA 703 is the ideal accessory for magnetic eld testing.
2.2 Supply frequency magnetic elds
Supply frequency magnetic eld tests, simulate the magnetic elds typically gener-
ated by the current ow in power supply cables as specied in IEC/EN 61000-4-8.
Such magnetic elds can affect the operation of items of equipment that are sensi-
tive to them.
For testing to IEC 61000-4-8, the INA 703 needs to be supplied by a regulated 50 or
60 Hz current (THD<8%) of maximum 10 A continuously and 35 A short term (<5 s).
Single turn, 5 turns , and 37 turns can be selected in order to reach high elds with
low currents, but maintaining good resolution for lower elds testing.

2.3 Pulsed magnetic eld
The Teseq ProfLine system comprising an NSG 1007- 5 kVA source, an INA 2141
impedance box and WIN 2120 software is ideally suited for this application. For this
setup the interconnection cable INA 3250 is required.
The system can generate supply frequency elds (50 and 60 Hz) up to 330 A/m
continuously and 1100 A/m short term (3 s).
For more information please consult ProLne 2100 series user documentation.
The INA 703 can also be used with the Teseq MFO 6501 or 6502 current sources
and the NSG 3000 series of generators to generate supply frequency elds (50 and
60 Hz) up to 120 A/m continuously and 120 A/m short term (3 s). For this setup the
interconnection cable INA 3251 is required.
For more information please consult MFO 6501/2 or NSG 3040 series user manuals.
Pulsed magnetic elds tests, simulate the type of interference produced by surge
pulses as a result of lightning strikes to buildings or other metallic structures such
as free standing masts, ground conductors, grounding networks, etc. as specied
in IEC/EN 61000-4-9. Magnetic elds of this type can upset the operation of instal-
lations that nd themselves within such elds.
For testing to IEC 61000-4-9, the INA 703 can be used together with a classic com-
bination wave generator such as the NSG 3040 or NSG 3060 series.
For this test a single loop ( 1 turn) will be used.
In order to meet the pulse waveform required by IEC 61000-4-9, the waveshape
adapter INA 752 needs to be used.

92.4 Oscillatory magnetic elds
Oscillatory magnetic elds tests, simulate the type of interference produced by the
switching of medium and high voltage switchgears, as specied in IEC/EN 61000-
4-10.
Magnetic elds of this type can upset the operation of installations that nd them-
selves within such elds.
For testing to IEC 61000-4-10, the INA 703 can be connected to an appropriate slow
oscillatory wave generator.
For this test a single loop (1 turn) will be used.

INA 703 Magnetic field coil
WARNING - Users must be aware of the following dangers
that can occur during testing:
It is recommended for the user to stay away (at least a few meters)
from the loop antenna while magnetic elds are generated. Also
keep away magnetic eld sensitive devices and items such as
credit cards – magnetic key cards etc… which might be inu-
encedby the elds.
The eld generated in the loop antenna is directly proportional to
the current owing through it:
Field strength (A/m) H = Cf x I
Where H is the generated eld, Cf the coil factor, I the current
owing through the loop.
The use and setting of the generator and associated software is
given in the generator user documentation.

19
Maintenance by the user is restricted to visual inspection, cleaning the outer
housing, performing a function check and verication of the pulse parameters.

4.1 General
4.2 Cleaning
In general a moist cloth is sufcient for cleaning the outer housingl. If necessary
add a small amount of a mild, non-foaming household cleanser.
No chemicals (acid, etc) should be used for cleaning purposes.
Before beginning to clean the test system ensure that it is switched off and the
mains power cable is unplugged from the supply.
4.3 Function check
Functional check of the whole system (generator plus INA 703) can be made by
monitoring the current owing through the INA 703.
This current, multiplied by the coil factor, will give the generated magnetic eld.
Supply frequency current may be measured by a RMS ampmeter.
Pulsed and oscillatory currents can be observed with an oscilloscope.
The safety measures described previously must be strictly
observed while carrying out a function check.

INA 703 Magnetic field coil
4.4 Calibration
The calibration of a Magnetic eld loop is explained in IEC 61000-4-8. The same
calibration is valid for testing per IEC 61000-4-9 and -10.
A magnetic eld meter is placed in the center of the loop and a reference supply
frequency current is generated through the loop. The ratio between the measured
magnetic eld and the reference current gives the coil factor.
