| E4551A/E4551kV* | Single-phase | 250 V rms | 15/16 A*** |
| E4552A/E4552kV* | Single-phase | 277 V rms | 32 A |
| E4553A/E4553kV* | Three-phase | 480 V rms | 16 A |
| E4555 | Three-phase | 600 V rms | 50 A |
| E4556 | Three-phase | 600 V rms | 100 A |
| *kV version is required for operation with surge modules greater than 7 kV, such as the E510 A. All standard coupler/decoupler options apply. **Actual current capability may be limited by the AC line connectors selected. ***Depends on connector selected. Typically 15 A with U.S. NEMA connector; 16 A with appropriate European style connectors |
|||
| Coupling Mode | Coupling mode selection is controlled manually from the control selection center, or automatically using SurgeWare™ or BurstWare™ software. Coupling is allowed from any line to any other line or combination of lines. | ||
| Monitoring | Monitoring and peak detection of surge voltage across any two manually-selected lines. Monitoring can be at the EUT or at the front panel of the coupler/decoupler. | ||
| Monitoring and peak detection of surge current in either High or Neutral, selected by the ECAT Control Center or the computer, measured without including back-filter surge current. | |||
| Minimum System Requirements | E100 series control center EFT or mains-coupled surge module | ||
| Options | |||
| E455x-DC Allows the E455x coupler/decoupler to be used with DC as well as AC mains. The DC current ratings for essentially resistive loads are: | |||
| to 48 V | to 110 V | to 220 V | |
| E4551A/E4551kV | 15 A | 5 A | 0.8 A |
| E4552A/E4552kV | 15 A | 5 A | 0.8 A |
| E4553A/E4553kV | 20 A | 8 A | 1.2 A |
| E4554A/E4554kV | 25 A | 8 A | 1.2 A |
| E4555 | 50 A | 50 A (120 V) | 30 A |
| E4556 | 100 A | 50 A (120 V) | 30 A |
| E455x-VI | Enhanced V and I monitoring. Adds monitoring and peak detection of surge voltage and current. Upper and lower limits can be placed on surge peaks. Monitoring of 3 wires is provided in single-phase systems, 5 wires in three-phase systems. Selection of the V and I inputs is performed from the control center or can be made automatically with SurgeWare control software | ||
| E455x-HV | Increases the AC mains voltage rating from 277 V to 480 V rms in the E4552, and from 480 V to 600 V rms in the E4553 and E4554. The HV option is not available in the E4551, E4555 and E4556. | ||
| Physical size of module varies depending on model number | |||
