HV Calibration
B-1027
Ross Engineering Corporation’s High Voltage Calibration Lab provides high accuracy capability for conducting tough reliability tests on all our high voltage devices. In this facility we test and calibrate HV Relays, HV Dividers, HV Probes, Spark Gaps, our Fiber Optic Systems, and HV Digital Voltmeters up to 450kV. We provide our own in house test lab to ensure Ross products meet or exceed required safety standards as well as our own high standards of dependability, long life and quality. Our technicians use test equipment calibrated by or traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology or other national metrology institute to provide the highest in testing accuracy.

High Current Switches
B-1002
Ross High Current Switches are available up to 36,000 amps continuous and over 1,700,000 amps 20µsec RC pulse, with voltage ratings of 6 volts to 400kV peak test. Standard Ross high current switches are built with 80 to 120psi air cylinder actuators. Air cylinder or motor operated for high contact force. Arcing contacts optional for closing current. G-10 epoxy glass laminate is standard insulation on most models. G-7 silicone glass is used on models available for RF applications above 100kHz. Most Ross high current switches are available with additional lengths of insulation, where the high voltage contacts need to be spaced at a greater distance from the actuator and control circuit. Voltage withstand value is at least doubled and the interrupt capability is much greater when high current switches are immersed in insulating oil, fluid or SF6 gas. For gas atmosphere, no modifications are necessary; however, oil or fluid immersion requires modification at a slight extra cost.

HV Test Load Systems
B-1025-1
Design and manufacture of electronic and electromechanical devices and systems for our customers' special applications has been Ross Engineering Corporation's specialty for 44 years. Among these devices are our High Voltage Test Loads and Resistance/Capacitance Networks designed to simulate radar, communication, and television transmitter loads for testing up to 300kV DC or AC and 200kW. For example, one Test Load System required 4 separate simulated load networks to complete an 8kV, 14kV, 24/6kV, and 34kV high voltage testing system.
