Testsequencer
-
LXinstruments has many years’ experience in using both the TestStand test sequencer by National Instruments and TestExec SL by Keysight Technologies.The use of test sequencers for functional testing is crucial in order to increase productivity during the implementation and maintenance of the test software. Test sequencers make it possible to decouple the actual product-specific test sequences from infrastructure components like e. g. user interface, data storage, process interfaces and driver libraries. This ensures easy reusability of the implemented software components.

Universal Function Test System for Industrial Electronics
-
General functional test system based on LXI instrumentation for high mix / low to medium volume manufacturing. DUTs are tested which are mainly used as communication and measurement modules in power plant technology, grid management and electrical drives.The system has a Virginia Panel adapter interface to which various desk adapters can be docked, including automated contacting of the DUTs. A camera for the verification of light emitting diodes on the test object is integrated in the adapter interface.

LED Burn-In Test
-
Burn-in system, based on LXI instrumentation, for concurrent testing of up to 80 DUTs in a climatic chamber. Devices to be tested include modern light emitting diodes and LED modules.The system consists of 2 control cabinets, each with 40 independent supply and measurement channels. Each channel can be configured individually via the operator software (current or voltage, including the relevant limit values). The software supports logging of current and voltage values for each DUT on all 80 channels with a sampling rate of <1s. Additionally, the software and system also support digital I/O channels, e. g. for controlling the climatic chamber. Inputs for connecting temperature sensors are also provided.

Grid Simulators
-
A grid simulator can be used to simulate the characteristics of low-voltage mains. For this purpose, all voltages and frequencies of the supply networks occurring worldwide can be simulated. Critical states such as short-term voltage dips or voltage peaks (surge/burst) can also be generated.The integrated sequencer function enables the generation of different network parameters, e.g. distorted waveforms and intermediate oscillations. Therefore, grid simulators are well suited for testing conformity to standards and especially for determining the behaviour of electrical equipment in borderline situations. Many European and other international standards are pre-programmed for testing.

Measurement and Analytics Solutions
-
Based on our OTP² system platform, we were able to implement a family of scalable test systems which is based on a common systems architecture, e. g. for products in the area of chemical analytics measurement. We not only implemented a universal, extremely comprehensive test system, but also a series of compact systems for benchtop placement which are fully compatible with the larger, universal system. Our specialized self-test adapters and test software enable fast verification of the test systems as well as partly automated calibration by the customer.Our systems are also used in electrical measurement applications, e. g. for calibrating analog input assemblies for PLC technology. For this purpose, specialized calibrators are integrated into the system; they provide traceable calibration of the relevant stimulus signals.

Isolated D/A Converter 8 Channel, 250kSa/s
OTP2 module no.187
-
The PXIe‑4322 is a channel-isolated analog output module with built-in signal conditioning. The module provides accurate, simultaneous dynamic voltage and current outputs. By combining signal conditioning and D/A converters in one device, the PXIe‑4322 isolated analog output module offers smaller dimensions and higher measurement performance. In current mode, the module operates in all four quadrants, allowing current to be drawn and sourced. Thanks to isolation and outputs for higher voltages and currents, the module is particularly suitable for applications in the automotive sector.

Electrical Safety Testing
-
Manufacturers and operators of electrical equipment are required to carry out an electrical safety test within the framework of the applicable regulations. This is to prevent accidents caused by malfunctions in electrical equipment, such as fire, explosion as well as injuries and personal damage. The tests to be carried out are specified in national (VDE/DIN) and international (EN/IEC) standards. After passing the test, the product is considered safe for the entire life cycle, provided it is left in its original condition and used for its intended purpose.

Railway and Traffic Engineering Solutions
-
In the past, LXinstruments has already implemented a number of application-specific system solutions which cater for these special requirements. These solutions are often used to replace systems which have been in production for many decades. Our systems are not only employed for testing signal box technology modules, but also for testing train control system which are installed in the track bed. Due to the strong magnetic fields which occur at the DUT in combination with high voltages, the test systems require specific technical safeguards.

Aerospace and Aviation Solutions
-
SCOEs and EGSEs by LXinstruments are used during test and validation of satellite assemblies and modules in aerospace applications. As an example, we implemented solar array simulators, battery simulators and high-power load racks for a German satellite manufacturer for testing satellite power supply systems. Due to the high power ratings, the systems are partially equipped with water cooling. Specialized switching modules were developed for switching DC currents at high voltage levels; these can be programmed with SCPI commands via Ethernet.Our modular OTP² functional test platform is ideally suited for implementing durable, reliable test systems, e. g. for in-flight entertainment applications. Since the OTP2 platform is based on open interfaces, it can be quickly and easily adapted to any required communication busses and ARINC interfaces.

Power Distributions
-
LXinstruments Power Distribution Units (PDU) provide all of the functionality required to power a test system in a compact 19-inch rack. This means that devices can be supplied with both mains voltage and DC voltage. With the soft-on-off function, the PDU can be controlled remotely via remote buttons and other potential-free contacts. We carry single-phase devices for the 16 A connection to three-phase devices for the 3x63 A or for the 125 A connection.
