Q1 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png What are the characteristics of Transient Limiter GPL-5010?
GPL-5010 operates from 9 kHz to 200 MHz with an attenuation of 10 dB to 12 dB. Detailed specifications can be found in GPL-5010 user manual, which can be downloaded from the website.
Q2 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png Can I use AC Source instead of GIT-5060 or place it in front of GIT-5060?
Yes. But not to choose Switching Mode AC Source to avoid the mixing of PWM signals and try to choose CE certified.  The noise of AC Source will be smaller.
Q3 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png GLN-5040A has a maximum of 16A, but GIT-5060 has a maximum of only 4A (at 220V), and the test capacity is too small. How do you increase their test capacities?
If the test capacity is greater than GIT-5060 requirement, two methods are recommended: first, replace GIT-5060 with AC Source, but it is better to use the Linear Mode and it has passed the CE specification. Second, use EMI power filter. This method requires special EMI manufacturers to construct because site evaluation and further specification evaluation are required to meet your needs.
Q4 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png Is the conducted EMI measurement results of the GLN-5040A and GIT-5060 different from the results measured by the laboratory?
When the laboratory is constructed, it usually uses a power filter (with filtering, voltage regulation, etc.) and is built with a standard field that meets the regulations. Therefore, there is less power supply noise after the LISN. GIT-5060 is mainly used to isolate the ground leakage current after LISN and the DUT is connected, and there is no filtering and voltage regulation function, so there will be some differences.
Refer to "What do you do when there is a test result difference between the pre-compliance and certified lab?" and "How to remove the effects of environmental noise when performing Pre-compliance measurement?"
Q5 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png Can the DUT and the test instrument be placed on the work table when using the LISN to test conducted EMI?
NO. The regulations have clear definitions for the setup and environment of the test equipment, including the height of the test table, the size of the grounding surface, the distance between the DUT and the test equipment, the power outlet, etc. The DUT in the regulation is placed on the test table and LISN is placed on the ground surface.
If the test site is not built in accordance with the regulations in the general working environment, the measurement results may cause errors.
Q6 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png Can GLN-5040A use DC Input? The specification supports 0~50Vdc input.
GLN-5040A supports DC input and supports up to 50Vdc input. However, since GLN-5040A is designed primarily for AC LISN, it can be used for reference when using DC input, however, it is not the same as DC LISN.
Q7 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png Why is there a defferent of about 10dB while using GLN-5040A?
A 10dB attenuator is designed in the GLN-5040A to protect the spectrum analyzer during testing. In the GSP-9330, the compensation function is also designed. 10dB compensation can be obtained by turning on (EMC Pretest >> EMC ON >> EMI Test >> Band selects the conduction band >> More 1/2 >> GLN-5040A 10dB Comp. ON / OFF >> Select ON to get the real value.
Q8 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png What is the difference between the 9kHz and 150kHz on the GLN-5040A?
Different products will use different regulations for EMC testing according to their electrical characteristics. According to the existing regulations, in the conducted test, 9 kHz is suitable for the conducted test of lighting equipment, and 150 kHz is suitable for the conducted test of general audio-visual equipment, household appliances and information products.
The following table is a list of regulations and conducted EMC test frequency ranges for products in various commonly used categories.

(1) Industrial, scientific, and medical products under the FCC's regulations, the frequency range of EMC conducted testing is 9k~30MHz.
Q9 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png PR-01 can test conducted EMI below 30MHz. Its withstand voltage is AC 300Vrms. What is the maximum DC bias value?
The highest DC bias of PR-01 should not exceed 50Vdc. It is recommended to test after the power supply of the DUT is connected and stabilized.
Q10 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png Is the Pre-amplifier preset turned off when using AC Probe PR-01?
When users use the function of EMC Pretest > AC Voltage Probe, the Pre-amplifier preset is turned off. PR-01 is mainly used to measure the EMI signal of the AC power supply.  A large signal feedback during the low frequency measurement is likely to occur that will damage the RF end of the GSP-9330. Therefore, when using the function of the AC Voltage Probe, the preamplifier is preset off. Users can still turn on the amplifier according to the requirements of the measurement.
Q11 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png What are the characteristics of the PR-01 AC probe?
The characteristics of the PR-01 are listed below. Users can also find the relevant specifications in the GKT-008 user manual.

Frequency Range

150kHz to 30MHz

Insertion Loss S21/ Frequency response

-2.4dB (Avg.)

Q12 gw_product_detail_bar.png gw_product_detail_bar.png What is the difference between the Pretest and Debug options under the AC Voltage Probe for EMI Mode of GSP-9330?
The measurement result of Debug Mode is not processed.
The Debug Mode is the default mode, and the measurement results are not processed, and the Pretest Mode is the mode after adding the Correction Factor of the PR-01 AC Probe.
