MSN15 hand-held power line EMI adapter provides complete galvanic separation from high mains' voltages but a straight path for high-frequency signals so that you can connect your sensitive instrument to live power lines for analysis and quantification. MSN15 can measure electromagnetic interference (EMI) between any connections in a power outlet on in a distribution panel. It also allows measurements of EMI between different grounded parts without creating ground loops using any oscilloscope or a spectrum analyzer, grounded via power outlet or not.
Among applications for MSN15 EMI Adapters are:
-
Conducted emission measurements
-
Designed to work with SEMI E176 Standard and
IPC-A-610 EOS section -
EMI audits, diagnostics and troubleshooting
-
Power Line Communication (PLC) Standards:
Homeplug AV and AV2 -- G.hn Wave 2 -- CENELEC EN50065 (all bands) -- IEEE 1902.2 -- ARIB (Japan) -- FCC
MSN15 is CE approved: IEC61010-1 (Third Edition), 2010; IEC 61010-2-031.
"Overall, I’m impressed with the EMI adapter ..."
