The Entube-DE-HB series was designed to enable measurement of fast high voltage signals in in-
dustrial and research environments. The output of the Entube-DE-HB is a linearly scaled down
version of the voltage difference between its two input terminals. This output can then be pro-
cessed by a computer based measurement system. The Entube-DE-HB series covers multiple input
dynamic ranges (±100V, ±200V, ±300V, ±400V, ±500V, ±750V, ±1000V and ±1500V) with a 20MHz
bandwidth, and 0.2% accuracy.
In addition to multiple dynamic ranges, the Entube-DE-HB can be ordered to have a single-ended
or a differential-pair output. The single-ended version has a BNC connector at the output, and can
be ordered as ±10V, ±5V or ±1V.

DESCRIPTION
The high voltage input signal connects to the sensor via two
clamp cage connectors. Use appropriate wire jacket and gauge,
as well as creepage distance. For superior noise immunity, it is
recommended to use a twisted pair from the high voltage source
to the input of the sensor.

Connections for Entube DE-HB
A spring cage connector is used to input pow-
er to the sensor. A single post screw terminal is
used to ground the secondary side of the sensor.
The signal out of the sensor comes in a BNC connector (single-
ended version), or a spring cage connector (differential-pair ver-
sion). If signal reflections are a concern, place the sensor as close
as possible to the high voltage signal source, and use the appro-
priate cable and load termination. If using a digitizer with BNC
inputs, use a 50Ω coaxial cable and a 50Ω terminating load at the
digitizer end. If using a digitizer with differential inputs, use a 100
Ω twisted pair and a 100 Ω terminating load at the digitizer end.

CONFIGURATION
A.
Ground sensor by connecting a
wire from the ground to the standoff
located next to the two spring connec-
tors. Connect any 8V to 28V external
power source to power the unit.
B.
Insert a wire pair between each of
these connectors and a corresponding
current input on the DAQ. The polar-
ity of the signal out is aligned with the
input signals.
C.
On the primary side, connect the
plus and minus signals. Use standard
twisted pair.

THIS SENSOR IS NOT A SAFETY DEVICE AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE USED AS A SAFETY DEVICE. This sensor is designed only to detect and read certain data in an elec-
tronic manner and perform no use apart from that, specifically no safetyrelated use. This sensor product does not include self-checking redundant circuitry, and the
failure of this sensor product could cause either an energized or de-energized output condition, which could result in death, serious bodily injury, or property damage.
