Integrated Partial Discharge Diagnostic Systems-
High-Sensitivity PD Measurement for Transformers, GIS, Switchgear & Cables

 

 

Designed for high-voltage equipment manufacturers, electrical utilities, and field testing teams, our partial discharge testers combine high-speed digital sampling with multi-channel noise cancellation. Accommodating HFCT, UHF, TEV, and airborne ultrasonic sensors, each system measures, analyzes, and localizes insulation defects under strong field interference while adhering to IEC 60060-2 and IEC 60270 standards.

FAQ

 

 

Q: How does the system reject background noise in live substations during HFCT or TEV measurements?

A: The unit combines hardware differential gating with digital phase-filtering algorithms. By using two HFCT sensors or an auxiliary noise-canceling antenna, signals appearing simultaneously across channels with zero phase shift are identified as ambient background noise and filtered out before PRPD pattern mapping.

Q: Is the instrument compliant with IEC 60270 measurement requirements?

A: Yes. The offline PDT-200 series strictly adheres to IEC 60270 standards for apparent charge measurement (pC). It features calibrated bandpass filtering, wideband acquisition modes, and includes a traceable pulse calibrator for system calibration prior to every testing session.

Q: Can the software automatically identify the type of partial discharge defect?

A: The integrated analysis software matches real-time PRPD and PRPS patterns against a database of typical discharge profiles. It provides automated pattern recognition probability for internal gas voids, surface corona, free-moving metallic particles, and fixed point discharges.

Q: What safety measures protect operators during high-voltage flashover events?

A: Signal acquisition units transmit data to the host PC or tablet via fiber-optic cables or isolated wireless protocols. There is no direct galvanic connection between the high-voltage coupling capacitors or sensors and the operator interface panel.

Q: Can the UHF sensors be installed on live GIS systems without gas de-pressurization?

A: Yes. Non-intrusive external UHF sensors mount directly over dielectric inspection windows or barrier insulators on GIS enclosures using heavy-duty magnetic fixtures, eliminating the need to de-gas or open the GIS compartment.

Q: How are test reports exported, and can they be customized to utility standards?

A: Reports can be exported in one click to PDF, CSV, or XML formats. The built-in report manager permits custom logo insertion, site metadata additions, raw waveform graphics embedding, and automated pass/fail assessments matching asset management guidelines.
