MD 5060x

The Megabras MD-5060x is a smart, microprocessor-controlled, 5kV insulation tester and analyzer. Besides the conventional measurement of insulation resistances up to 5 TW, its advanced features allow to automatically measure both the Polarization Index and Dielectric Absorption Index, thus significantly simplifying testing of transformers.

This insulation tester is a portable, battery-powered equipment. Test voltage may be chosen from 500V to 5 kV in 100 dddV increments. Due to its measurement principle (actual voltage and current readings) the accuracy of resistance measurement is not affected by any test voltage error. Nevertheless, the High-Voltage generator is electronically stabilized with a better than 2% accuracy in open-circuit condition and for any normal operation battery voltage.

The MD-5060x is powered using a rechargeable battery and has an automatic charger that may be connected to 100 - 240V mains supply. The cabinet is strong and lightweight, easy to carry, impact-resistant and suitable to be used under severe weather conditions. Thus the megohmmeter supplies very reliable and accurate measurements both in laboratory and out in the field.

MTD20KWr

The MTD20KWR digital earth tester allows for the measurement of Earth Resistances and Soil Specific Resistivity, and also the spurious voltages caused by parasitic voltages present in the soil.

This equipment is suitable for fast and easy measurement of the grounding resistance in house and industrial buildings, hospital installations, lightning rods, antennas, substations, etc. Soil resistivity measurement allows for soil stratification in order to optimize the most complex grounding systems engineering.

Its state-of-the-art system of active and passive filters provides it with high immunity to electric interferences, making it possible to obtain reliable measurements even in the presence of spurious voltages, such as the ones that can be found in some urban areas and near primary substations.

A 1,470 Hz internal generator injects alternated current on the soil through an auxiliary rod. The voltage generated over the earth resistance is measured by the apparatus, and the resistance value is evaluated. The test current is automatically regulated.It has abnormalities indications on the display which advises the operator when the generated current is not enough to carry out reliable measurements.Because of its wide range of measurement (from 0.01 Ω up to 20 kΩ), this equipment allows for reliable testing in all kinds of soils, including those that offer very high resistivity.

This earth tester is supplied with a rechargeable internal battery. The smart charger is microprocessor-controlled, and can be powered from a 12 V car battery (or a similar one).

It has a sturdy, easy and safe to carry cabinet, with IP65 protection level (closed lid). It is suitable to work under adverse geographical and environmental conditions, with extreme temperatures in cold or tropical regions and in high mountain areas, showing a reliable performance in the field.

EM 4058

The EM-4058 earth tester is a digital, microprocessor controlled instrument that allows to measure the earth resistance and ground resistivity (using Wenner´s method), as well as to detect parasitic voltages present in the ground. This instrument is suitable to measure earth systems in power substations, industries, distribution networks, etc., according to IEC 61557-5.

In order to conveniently test the earth system, EM4058 allows to perform measurements using the test current which frequency may be operator-selected (270 Hz, 570 Hz, 870 Hz, 1170 Hz or 1470 Hz). On one hand, the lowest frequency will allow to analyze the earth system behavior related to fault currents of industrial frequency, while on the other hand, the measurement performed with the highest frequency will best show the behavior in connection with electrical currents caused by lightning and will offer a very high immunity related to interference voltages that are usually present in soils, specially near substations.

The instrument has four ranges that are automatically selected, covering measurements from 0.01 Ω up to 20 kΩ, which allows to obtain very accurate measurements for any kind of soils. During ground resistivity measurement, the operator may indicate the distance between spikes in order for the equipment to apply Wenner's formula and to show the resistivity value directly.

TM25t

Testing of the power transmission towers grounding (G) quality poses a serious problem as they are all electrically interconnected by means of Ground Wires which act as lightning rods, protecting the lines from atmospheric discharges. Due to the existence of this connection, any attempt to measure a tower grounding (G) resistance using a conventional earth meter leads to wrong results as what is really being measured is all the shunt towers grounding (G) resistance (or, more precisely, its impedance at low frequency).

To make this kind of test feasible, which is of vital importance to ensure the transmission of the electrical power without interruptions, TENTECH TM25t grounding resistance meter for high frequency has been developed. This is the appropriate tool for a fast, safe and reliable grounding resistance measurement in each tower of a working line transmission, without disconnecting the ground wire.

Its operation is based on the use of a high-frequency measurement current (25 kHz), for which ground wire inductive impedance - taking into account a typical length span - is reasonably high, making it possible to reduce the effect of the adjacent towers under measurement. The equipment only measures the ground resistance of the surveyed tower, including its base. The extensive G systems, such as meshes, buried wires, metal pipes, etc, are measured only considering the closest section to the connection point, so that the measured value represents the performance against a pulse signal similar to an atmospheric discharge. Thus, values that better represent the system capacity to ground lightning currents than the ones obtained with low frequency conventional equipments, even when disconnecting the ground wire, are obtained. TM25t is a strong equipment, easy to carry, resistant to the hard weather and geographical features of the tropical and high-mountain regions, that is why it is described as an excellent product for field works under the most severe environmental conditions.

Features

  • Intended for measurement of earth resistance of electricity pylons
  • Minimizes the influence of adjacent pylons, connected by the guard cable
  • Operation frequency: 25 kHz
  • Resistance reading: up to 300 Ω
  • Automatic compensation of inductive component
