MSN17 plug-in 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 of electromagnetic interference and power line communication. MSN17 can measure EMI between any connections in a power outlet. It has a switch between differential (DM) and common (CM) modes in the outlet. It also allows measurements of EMI without creating ground loops using any oscilloscope or a spectrum analyzer, grounded via power outlet or not.
Among applications for MSN17 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
MSN17 is CE approved: IEC61010-1 (Third Edition), 2010; IEC 61010-2-031.
