  • MEDIUM VOLTAGE CONTACTOR TESTER

    Emerging Technologies, LLC. was called upon to develop a functional test system for a medium voltage contactor. The system incorporated a customer-supplied fixture and other hardware. The system test requirements included pickup tests and HiPot test. The provided fixture incorporates two DUT test locations to run pick-up and HiPot tests simultaneously (pick-up test in one location and HiPot test in the other).

  • ELECTRO-MECHANICAL DEVICE TEST SYSTEM

    Emerging Technologies, LLC. was called upon to develop and build a custom Electro-Mechanical Device Test System. The system electrically closes and close/opens the device for a configurable number of cycles. The system can perform close/open cycles as fast as four times per second with a delay between close to open as little as 0ms. The duration of close and open pulse signals can also be adjusted to accommodate various DUT styles. The total number of cycles is configurable with the cycles stopping when the breaker state feedback does not correspond with the systems last command. The system also counts and records the total number of cycles performed and is capable of restarting a test without resetting the cycle count, allowing a test to be stopped and restarted at a later time.
