Additional Features:

• Sourcing and switching for airbag inflator testing with the Model 2790
• Programmable 0-50mA current source
• Programmable 50-500V voltage source
• Built-in I/V converter
• Low energy sources, a hardware source interlock, and programmable shunts help prevent accidental detonations

The Model 7751, 7752, and 7753 Source/Switch Modules are designed exclusively for use in the Model 2790 SourceMeter Switch System for electrical checks of airbag inflators and a variety of other automotive electrical test applications. These modules provide the programmable high voltage and low current sourcing, plus the multichannel switching support required to measure insulation resistance and conductor continuity in these applications.

The Model 7751 and 7753 modules include programmable DC voltage (50-500V) and current (0-50mA) sources, as well as relay switching. A built-in current-to-voltage converter on these modules is used with the voltage source to measure the insulation resistance. They can also be used to measure currents from 0-50μA.

The switch matrix of the Model 7751 and 7753 simplifies implementing contact verification tests and allows the Model 2790 to verify test voltages and currents for increased measurement reliability.

The Model 7752 module is identical to the Model 7751, except that it does not include the high voltage source and current-to-voltage converter. The Model 7753 is identical to the Model 7751 except that the lowest high ohms measurement for the Model 7753 is 1MΩ and for the Model 7751 is 10MΩ. Safety related design features that provide added protection against accidental detonation include low energy sources, a hardware source interlock, and programmable shunts that can be used in conjunction with an inflator’s shunt bar.
