The Dielectric-Loss Analysing System 2840 is designed for the measurement of very low dielectric losses and impedances (dissipation factor and power factor) of high-voltage apparatus such as extruded insulation on power cables.
The instrument works on the principle of a combined bridge-vector-meter and is capable of analysing capacitive and inductive loads, especially shunt reactors, with outstanding accuracy and stability.
The graphical user interface of the instrument is highly intuitive, focused on convenience with built-in useful programmes and uses a large colour touch screen as the input device.
While the manual mode provides quick measurements, the automatic test mode supports complete automated test sequences.
Advanced software functionalities such as insulation temperature correction, programmable test sequences with pass/fail limits, graphical visualisation of measured data, etc. make this instrument a powerful tool for the analysis of high-voltage equipment.
The instrument incorporates standard interfaces (for example, USB), which enable easy exchange of measurement results and related settings for further analysis or reporting.
