On-line Partial Discharge Handheld Test Unit

Diagnostic Technologies India Pvt Ltd offers the world's first On-line Partial Discharge Handheld Test Unit with an Asset Management Application, the PDS Insight™, sourced from HVPD (UK). The PDS Insight is supplied with a dedicated asset management tablet application – the OLPD Manager™ app. This unique, world-leading handheld test technology combines HVPD’s knowledge from over 20 years of OLPD test technology development with the flexibility and functionality of the Android operating system and a 10.1” Tablet PC. The PDS Insight™ measures PD Levels, PD Pulse Count and Cumulative PD Activity across the 50/60 Hz power cycle to enable the severity of any partial discharge activity to be assessed. By combining three (3) types of PD sensor (TEV, HFCT and AA), the unit is suitable for the OLPD testing of most types of in-service medium voltage (MV) cables and plant and OLPD surveying of outdoor high voltage (HV) switchyards. Suitable for OLPD testing of power cables, switchgear, rotating machines and transformers, the handheld unit stores all measurement data on its hard disk that is then synchronised (‘synced’) via Bluetooth® to the OLPD Manager™ app on the supplied tablet 10.1” PC for analysis, benchmarking and trending.

Benefits

• Easy-to-use, lightweight and portable
• The OLPD Managerâ„¢ app on the 10.1" Androidâ„¢ tablet PC makes it easy to setup a test record and to carry out repeat testing and monitoring
• Designed for rapid OLPD screening of medium voltage (MV) and high voltage (HV) assets
• Ensures the safe and reliable operation of HV networks, providing an 'early warning' against 'incipient' faults
• The unit’s barcode scanner retrieves sensor location ID from the Point of Attachment (POA) labels automatically
• All data between the PDS Insightâ„¢ handheld and the Androidâ„¢ tablet is synchronised (‘synced’) via Bluetooth
• Variations in PD levels in time can be viewed in real-time on the PDS Insight unit's 3.5” colour LCD screen with a standard 5-second recording of OLPD activity
• Optional accessories include the Outdoor Acoustic Parabolic Receiver Extension Unit (for detecting corona and surface discharges in outdoor HV switchyards) and the Indoor Acoustic Search Probe (to allow the unit to detect airborne acoustic activity along hard-to-reach seams/gaps in MV switchgear)
• First annual calibration is included
