4001-16
The CED 4001-16 Mains Pulser generates mains-frequency-locked pulses that can be used to reduce the magnitude of mains pickup (‘hum’) in recorded signals. The output is on a BNC connector, double-isolated from mains and consists of a train of 150 μs positive-going 5 V TTL pulses, suitable for direct connection to a 1401 Event input.
The Mains Pulser will run off any mains supply between 100 -240 V AC, 50 - 60 Hz. The case is earthed to mains earth. Current consumption is less than 100 mA.
Box size: 104 mm × 126 mm × 53 mm (W × D × H).
How to use the Mains Pulser
The recommended method of use is to record the pulses on an Event channel, alongside the waveform signal. Hum removal can then be done off-line, for example by using the Spike2 scripts HumRemove or HumRemoveExpress. Averaging with respect to the mains-generated pulses gives a good copy of the hum component, which can be subtracted from the polluted signal to provide a cleaner version.
