ECAT®

ECAT, Expert Computer Aided Testing, addresses a broad range of EFT, Surge and Dips and Interrupts testing to meet Bellcore, UL, IEC and ANSI standards. Designed to meet the needs and standards of the telecommunications, power line and electrical industries as well as EMI test laboratories.

The ECAT is the most comprehensive test system offered by KeyTek for analyzing product vulnerability. It has become the industry leader in technology, functionality and reliability. The precision with which ECAT pulsed EMI tests are performed eliminates the possibility of overtest which may indicate unnecessary re-engineering and increased production costs; it also eliminates the possibility of undertest which can leave your product vulnerable to reliability problems as a result of real world stresses.

A comprehensive, open architecture allows custom configurations to be easily assembled. And, each year new modules are introduced to expand the test capabilities of the system and to continually meet evolving test standards and customer requirements.

Designed as a flexible, economically upgradable modular system, a stand-alone system can be upgraded at any time with the simple addition of new modules thereby eliminating costly equipment obsolescence and redundancies.

The ECAT meets the test levels and requirements in accordance with national and international standards, including:

IEC 61000-4-4
IEC 61000-4-5
IEC 61000-4-11
ANSI/IEEE C62.41
UL 864
UL 1449
FCC Part 68
CCITT Rec. K.17, K.20, K.21
Bellcore-1089-CORE
British Telecom Standards

The ECAT has an industry standard warranty of one year with expanded warranty programs available.
