SMARTTHUMP Fault Location System Uses live trace to confirm fault Offers sectionalizing option Marks distances to cable end and fault Assures user safety
Has USB interface (for upload and download)
The associated software platform for the SMARTTHUMP also keeps the technician in mind, guiding the user automatically through the entire fault locating process from confirming fault to obtaining a distance to pinpointing or even sectionalizing. All that is required from the technician is acknowledgement of the next step in the test sequence, which is posed by the software itself. The software will also assist with test result interpretation, and, for the more experienced operator, allow for custom configuration. And, with the SMART-THUMP, the unit automatically sets the thump voltage to minimize stress on the cable and runs a safety check to protect the technician from faulty ground connection.
EZ-THUMP Smart Fault Location System Focuses on distribution voltage power cables Works like a thumper Possesses easy-go automatic sequence Interprets test results
The new second-generation EZ-THUMP utilizes a microcontroller-based platform for integrated fault location in URD circuits, which allows the technician to operate the unit from a single rotary turn-and-click knob. The unit requires no adjustments, making it ideally suited for satellite fault locating for rural or outlying areas with lesser fault frequency.
The EZ-THUMP uses a live trace to confirm a fault and, additionally, possesses a sectionalizing option and a DC hipot test with a delta display. Four kV and 12 kV models are available with the EZ-THUMP, which additionally offers rainproof operation and the option of battery or AC-line use.
EZ-RESTORE OVERDRIVE Fault Locator System Has back-feed alert Weighs less than 48.5 lbs Offers unique USB load
Has trans-flective color LCD
The EZ-RESTORE OVERDRIVE features a 1,100-joule output at 12 kV. A DC hi-pot output of 12 kV to indicate breakdown voltage is optional with this unit. Possessing a measuring range up to 25,000 feet, the EZ-RESTORE OVERDRIVE offers fault-distance accuracy less than 2.5 feet (depending on displayed range). Additionally, the system allows for computer-controlled automatic sectionalizing and fault locating with a simple turn and click operation.
MIG 16-2 Impulse Generator & HV Test System Is rugged & portable for field use Offers two-range 8/16 kV & powerful 1500 joules outputs Allows for HV insulation testing to 20 kV
Offers proof/burn up to 20 kV, 115 mA
The Megger impulse generator (thumper) MIG16-2 is designed to provide quick, effective, accurate & safe fault location, reducing system outages & customer minutes lost. The instruments IP64 rating makes it suitable for use in even environmentally hostile conditions. The MIG16-2 allows the facility to undertake cable testing, including cable & fault diagnosis & pinpoint fault location using acoustic methods.
Digiphone Plus Pinpointer Finds the fault with unprecedented accuracy Offers simple visual directions Possesses smart background noise reduction Automatically limits audio volume to 84 decibels
Requires no user adjustments
The Digiphone plus pinpoints underground cable faults with unprecedented accuracy and sets a new standard by applying innovative audio concepts. This combination results in a pinpointing device for highresistive faults that is unsurpassed in sensitivity.
Digiphone plus works off the thunder and lightning principle of fault location. In the same way you can measure how far away a storm is by counting the distant between a faster lightning flash and its slower thunder, this pinpointer works by measuring the energy around an underground fault. If you think of the flashover at a fault as the lightning, the Digiphone measures distance by figuring timing between that electromagnetic flash and the seismic (or acoustic) jolt also created at the moment of flashover.
SG15-1150 M & SG25-1150 M Fault Locating Systems Focus on URD cables Are each fully self-contained Figure fault distance automatically
Bring more power, functionality to fault locating
For customers who need more power and functionality with fault locating, Megger offers the SG15-1150 M and the SG25-1150 M. These systems are designed for the more frequent and experienced users. They offer the benefits of fully-functional radar with the additional power needed to fault locate on any type of distribution system.
Both the SG15 and the SG25 offer 15 kV and 25 kV at 1150 joules and can locate faults on any URD system. These units feature ARM filters, a switchable capacitor that allows full energy output at any voltage and a new, 10.5-inch color automatic radar screen. Theyre the smart choice for the experienced locator.
CI Cable Identifier Identifies a de-energized primary cable safely Identifies live secondary cables up to 240 VAC Avoids false positives
The CI Cable Identifier will safely identify a dead (or de-energized) primary cable within a group of energized or de-energized cables as well as live secondary cables (including neutrals) up to 240 VAC (460 optional). The absolute safe identification is based on polarity and signal magnitude of the DC pulse (up to 100 A) coming from the transmitter, which is picked up by the receiver and a clip-on probe. The transmitter can operate on 120 VAC or internal battery (up to 50 hrs run time). The entire system functions without user adjustments and will, under no circumstances, provide a false positive identification. The standard combination kit (for HV & LV cables) includes a 6 flexible clip-on probe, and two touch sensors for all your applications where a clip on cannot be used.
PFL22M1500 Portable Cable Fault Location System Offers arc reflection method Offers arc reflection plus Offers differential arc reflection
Offers impulse current (current impulse)
The PFL22M1500 is a portable, rugged fault locating systems that, like the MIG 16-2, allows for HV insulation testing to 20 kV; proof/burn up to 20 kV, 115 mA and 8/16 kV, 1500 joules surge outputs. After identifying the type of fault, pre-location of the fault position can be determined using the methods listed above.
T3090, T3090T, T3090SX, T3090SX-T Digital Time Domain Reflectometers (TDRs) Use radar to pre-locate faults to save time and reduce cable damage Are the only TDRs with Window CE embedded Include one-button operation, automatic gain and a large color screen Will automatically read the cable end and display fault distance with a
