Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of industrial control equipment, in particular to an electromagnetic compatibility testing method and a testing system for an industrial control power supply. Background Art
[0002] Industrial control power supplies are key components in the fields of industrial automation, communication equipment, and power electronics, and their performance directly affects the stability and reliability of the system. In complex industrial environments, industrial control power supplies must not only provide continuous and stable energy supply for equipment, but also need to deal with various potential electromagnetic interference (EMI), including but not limited to conducted interference, radiated interference, and transient interference signals. These electromagnetic interferences can cause equipment to operate abnormally, performance degradation, and even cause system failures, posing a major threat to the overall reliability of the system. Therefore, the electromagnetic compatibility performance of industrial control power supplies has become one of the focuses of attention in the industrial field.
[0003] At present, electromagnetic compatibility testing of industrial power supplies usually involves the following three key dimensions: conducted interference testing, radiated interference testing, and immunity testing. Conducted interference testing focuses on high-frequency noise signals conducted by industrial power supplies on the grid or load side, and the test range is usually 150 kHz to 30 MHz; radiated interference testing is used to evaluate the electromagnetic field radiation intensity of industrial power supplies in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1GHz; and immunity testing simulates the working performance of industrial power supplies under interference signals such as electrical fast transient pulse groups (EFT), surges, and radio frequency electromagnetic fields. However, existing testing methods and equipment have many deficiencies in terms of efficiency, applicability, and accuracy.
[0004] First, the testing capabilities of existing equipment are limited and the testing process is complicated. Traditional electromagnetic compatibility test equipment is mostly targeted at a single interference type, and usually requires the use of conducted interference measurement equipment, radiated interference measurement equipment, and immunity test equipment, and these devices lack linkage. In the actual testing process, operators need to frequently replace equipment and test tools, resulting in a lengthy and complicated testing process, which not only increases the workload, but may also cause signal loss or data inconsistency due to equipment switching. In addition, the decentralized testing process cannot fully evaluate the electromagnetic compatibility performance of industrial control power supplies in complex environments, limiting the test efficiency and application value.
[0005] Second, the existing technology cannot truly simulate the dynamic working state of industrial control power supplies. In actual operation, the load characteristics of industrial control power supplies usually change dynamically with the working state. For example, scenarios such as industrial equipment startup, load switching, and frequency adjustment will cause frequent changes in the resistance, inductance, and capacitance characteristics of the load. However, most existing electromagnetic compatibility test equipment uses fixed or static load simulation technology, which cannot effectively simulate the dynamic working conditions of industrial control power supplies. Such static test conditions easily lead to deviations between the test results and the actual application conditions, reducing the credibility of the test results.
[0006] Third, the real-time processing capability of high-frequency interference signals is insufficient, which affects the test accuracy. In electromagnetic compatibility tests, especially immunity tests and high-frequency interference tests, the dynamic response of industrial control power supplies under the action of interference signals usually changes on a microsecond time scale. If the real-time processing capability of the test equipment is insufficient and the time correlation between the interference signal and the output signal of the industrial control power supply cannot be captured, important transient change information may be missed, affecting the accuracy of the test results. In addition, the existing equipment is weak in data processing capabilities, and the analysis and presentation of test results mostly rely on manual processing, which is inefficient and error-prone.
[0007] Fourth, the test data is not standardized and comprehensive enough. Current test equipment usually generates independent data for conducted interference, radiated interference and immunity tests. There is a lack of unified comprehensive analysis methods between these data, making it difficult to directly judge the overall electromagnetic compatibility performance of industrial power supplies. In addition, existing equipment has deficiencies in the visualization of test results, and the generated test reports are not intuitive enough, making it difficult to provide design engineers with targeted optimization suggestions.
[0008] In view of the above problems, there is an urgent need for an efficient and integrated electromagnetic compatibility test system that can cover multiple dimensions of electromagnetic compatibility testing of industrial control power supplies and support dynamic load adjustment functions to truly restore the working state of industrial control power supplies. The system should combine frequency domain and time domain joint analysis technology to fully capture the spectral characteristics of interference signals and their impact on the dynamic response of power supplies. In addition, the system must also have the ability to process high-frequency signals in real time to ensure the accuracy and integrity of test data, and generate standardized test results and intuitive visual reports through comprehensive evaluation algorithms.
[0009] Therefore, we urgently need to design electromagnetic compatibility test methods and test systems for industrial control power supplies to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
