OVERVIEW
The AE Techron CR 600 Chattering Relay is a cost-effective, rugged yet elegant solution to the DO 160 Section 19.3.5 “Spikes Induced into Interconnecting Cables” test requirement.
Internally built around a 50A high-current relay with two independent sets of contacts, the CR 600 was engineered for double the life before refurbishment.
The CR 600 uses quick-connect, touch-proof connectors to ensure efficient setup and a safe test environment. It also includes quick-clip test points for oscilloscope monitoring of tests in progress.
When driven from an intermittent voltage source like the AE Techron DSR 100-25 and utilizing test waveform, “Section 19.3.5 CR 600”, the CR 600 output meets the voltage (600V), duration (50 – 1000 µs) and repetition-period (0.2 to 10 µs) requirements specified by the DO-160 standard.
