Schaffner CDN8014

The Teseq (Schaffner) coupling clamp is primarily used to inject fast transient and burst interference pulses into signal and data cables, i.e. into any type of connection to peripheral equipment. The IEC standard 61000-4-4 also allows the capacitive coupling method to be used for pulse injection into AC and DC power lines when no suitable decoupling network is available. The coupling capacitance (typically 100 pF) between the coupling clamp and the inserted cable depends on the cable type, diameter, and other factors such as screening, etc. The CDN 8014 conforms to the standard in every respect. It has a sturdy construction and is suitable for laboratory and on-site use. The precision-manufactured German silver coupling plates are housed in a wooden case with a crystal-clear protective lid. Contact plates on both sides of the case ensure the necessary grounding to the reference plane. Features Active coupling length 1 m Typical coupling capacitance between cable and clamp 50 pF to 200 pF Cable diameter up to 40 mm Max. permissible burst voltage 8 kV Burst/EFT Coupling Clamp
