Baur PD-TaD-60 monitored withstand tester

The Baur PD-TaD-60 monitored withstand tester provides an accurate picture of cable reliability, permitting parallel observation of partial discharge, measurement of discharge location to 12,800 metres and loss angle measurement. The tester is an HV coupler incorporating an accurate capacitor coupling to the cable under test.

The tester provides the decoupling circuits for accurate partial discharge detection and measurement, and in combination with the Baur FRIDA VLF tester permits testing protocols including in addition to partial discharge: tan delta (loss angle) measurement; mean of tan delta tests; standard deviation of tan delta tests; plus, observation of tan delta change with testing voltage change (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 of rated voltage up to 60 kV peak) with user-defined periods.

The scope of supply includes a laptop with analysis software, calibrator and power box. An optional phase resolving module is available.
