Overview
The R&S RT-ZHD series are active high voltage differential probes for engineers who have to measure accurately on floating circuits or against a large common mode voltage. The series reaches 6000 V differential and is rated CAT III 1000 V, which covers power electronics, industrial drives, electric vehicles and renewable energy work. Each probe carries the built-in R&S ProbeMeter high-precision DC voltmeter, measures both differential and common mode voltage, and calibrates itself against the oscilloscope through the Rohde & Schwarz probe interface. The amplifier box is compact, the inputs are 4 mm banana sockets, and signal leads are available in 1.5 m, 3.0 m and 4.5 m for reach on site.
Key features
- Active differential design measuring up to 6000 V (RMS) differential
- Complies with IEC/EN 61010-031 CAT III 1000 V, for industrial and power environments
- Built-in R&S ProbeMeter high-precision DC voltmeter measures differential and common mode voltage at once
- Excellent common mode rejection (CMRR): > 80 dB from DC to 60 Hz (+15 °C to +35 °C)
- Attenuation error of ±0.5 % for very good DC measurement accuracy
- Rise time as short as < 2 ns (RT-ZHD07 / RT-ZHD16), for capturing fast transients
- Two switchable attenuation settings (low / high) to cover different voltage ranges
- Rohde & Schwarz probe interface: the oscilloscope detects and calibrates the probe automatically
- Signal leads available in 1.5 m, 3.0 m or 4.5 m for easier connection in the field (the RT-ZHD15 / RT-ZHD60 support the B30 / B45 leads)
- Solid mechanical design: shock resistance to MIL-STD-810E for industrial sites
- Supplied with the R&S RT-ZA24 accessory set (safety crocodile clips, clip-on test heads, test leads) and a protective sleeve
Typical applications
- Power electronics measurement: gate drive and drain-source voltage on IGBT, MOSFET, GaN and SiC switching devices
- Differential line voltage measurement on three-phase inverters and drives
- Voltage analysis on EV/HEV high-voltage battery packs and charging systems
- Power quality measurement on solar inverters and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
- Safe measurement on floating circuits in industrial switchboards and motor control centres
- Power conversion efficiency testing (verification against standards such as IEEE 519 and IEC 62040)
- Output waveform analysis on high-voltage amplifiers and plasma power supplies
