The POSITRON® insulator tester for high-voltage lines can be used to test many high-voltage glass and porcelain insulators on power lines, electricity pylons and transmission and distribution line poles.
Description
Breakdowns due to insulator failure are costly. In addition, live working requires insulators to be in good condition for the safety of line workers and high-voltage workers. A critical failure can cause long-term damage as well as material and financial losses. Pollution, salt spray, dust, wear, shocks, or micro-defects can dramatically alter insulator quality.
Whether made of porcelain, glass, or composite (silicone), the quality of an insulator is a determining factor in the robustness of your electrical installation.
In a high-voltage electrical substation, many items of equipment contain insulators, such as switchgear, measuring equipment and electrical connections: power transformers, bushings, circuit breakers, isolators, current transformers, voltage transformers, bushings, etc.
POSITRON Insulator Testers are revolutionary, lightweight, easy-to-use tools that record faults and hazardous conditions on suspended insulators, sub-station circuit breakers, bushings and live surge arresters. POSITRON insulator testers represent a major advance in insulator maintenance.
POSITRON GLASS & PORCELAIN testers feature a function that instantly provides a detailed report of glass and porcelain insulators in the event of a fault.
Description of the POSITRON GLASS & PORCELAIN:
The instrument detects early detection
Records faults, up to 15,000 readings.
Operates on undervoltage insulators from 69 kV to 1,000 kV.
