VDE 0884 VIORM = 630 V peak
Option for Plastic Optocouplers
Technical Data
Option 060
Description
Optocouplers are frequently used
to provide high voltage insulation.
Because optocouplers perform
this safety function, they are
regulated by many country safety
agencies, both at the component
level and the equipment level.
With Option 060, the products
are tested according to VDE 0884
(June 1992 Revision) at
VIORM = 630 V peak. HP also
offers other various VDE 0884
approved products at different
levels of VIORM such as
VIORM = 1414 kV peak
(HCNWXXXX series) and
VIORM = 891 V peak (HCPL-JXXX
series).
Refer to the front of the opto-
coupler section of the current
catalog, under Product Safety
Regulations section, for a detailed
description of VDE 0884 and the
partial discharge tests for
production and type testing.
Option 060 is available on the
following products.

HCPL-2219 HCPL-2300
HCPL-2400 HCPL-261A
