MPD 600 – Partial discharge analysis system

Partial discharge (PD) phenomena is evidence of a degrading insulation capacity. As partial discharge often precedes an insulation breakdown of high voltage equipment, its detection and monitoring is of vital importance. The pioneers of multi-channel synchronous PD systems, mtronix, teamed up with OMICRON, the world leader in innovative power system testing solutions, to bring forward the best PD analysis system available: the MPD 600.

The MPD 600 is a high-end, high-precision modular acquisition analysis toolkit for detecting, recording and analyzing partial discharge events in many applications. Its versatility and robustness make the MPD 600 the ideal system for both laboratory and on-site measurements of partial discharge in any kind of electrical equipment, such as transformers, rotating machines and cable systems.

Features & Benefits

  • Full compliance with the relevant international standards IE60044, IEC 60270, IEC 60076 and IEC 60885
  • Accurate detecting and reliable evaluating of minute discharges in the range of pC (pico-coulombs) while dealing with test voltages up to several hundred kV
  • True multi-channel measurement: complete synchronicity of all connected acquisition units (down to the nanosecond)
  • Advanced noise separation tools: 3PARD (Three-Phase Amplitude Diagram) helps to differentiate various partial discharge sources from each other as well as from disturbances; 3CFRD (3 Center Frequency Relation Diagram) characterizes partial discharge sources by their frequency signature
  • Safe operation due to fully galvanic isolation between PD acquisition units and between acquisition units and PC via mtronix fiber network
  • Highly transportable acquisition units allow easy testing at different locations
Applications

  • Transformer testing
  • Cable testing respectively on-site assembling
  • Measurements on rotating machines
  • Generator testing
