The QRC40 Rogowski Coil is designed to acquire high frequency current pulses generated by PD and is an ideal sensor for installation around high voltage power cables and bushings that are less than 40mm in diameter.
Supplied with 20m coax cables for each phase (20m max. to ensure PD sensitivity is not affected) |
Fiitted by clamping around machine high voltage cables or bushings |
Coax cable can be terminated in a safe area or inside a suitably certified enclosure |
BNC connector must be mounted at the end of the cable in order to connect it to PD analyser |
Ideally suited to machines with HV cables and bushings less than 40mm in diameter; no need to disconnect cables during installation |
Installed 1 per phase on the line terminals |
Available for both Safe and Hazardous areas. ATEX / IECEx / UKCA Certified |
Central aperture accomodates 40mm diameter cable or bushing |
