Recurrent Surge Generator 482 is a bench-top, one stage, low voltage equivalent of a high voltage impulse generator. Its wide range of applications includes the testing of models, the study of voltage distribution in high voltage windings during impulse voltage stresses and the predetermination of the circuit parameters of impulse test plants.

Tests can be performed quickly and reliably without endangering personnel. All impulse circuit elements and, therefore, all impulse wave forms may be varied within broad limits with selector knobs. Due to the repetition frequency of 25 Hz, the voltage impulse may be observed and evaluated on any oscilloscope as a standing image.

All impulse circuit components may be adjusted in steps.

The impulse shape can thus be fine-tuned within a wide range. Additional capacitors and resistors can be connected externally to permit operation with larger impulse capacitances and other resistance values.

The peak value of the impulse voltage is stabilized and continuously adjustable. The voltage impulse may be chopped internally within broad limits.

The unit also features a continuously adjustable oscilloscope trigger delay which may be set from trigger delay through zero to pre trigger.

The RSG 482 is a bench-top model which can also be mounted into 19” racks. All input and output jacks are located at the rear panel of the unit. All controls are arranged on the front panel for easy access.
