ICMsys8
The ICMsys8 greatly simplifies the PD

acceptance tests on large power transformers. With its true parallel acquisition of the PD activity on eight channels, the overall testing period is substantially shortened. E.g. the cross coupling matrix for the different phases is
done automatically while calibrating the
test setup.
An advanced PD analysis system consists of an ICMsystem for PD pattern

acquisition, a built-in or external spectrum analyzer for frequency domain
analysis, and a standard oscilloscope
for the evaluation of the time domain
signals. The ICMspectrum software was
developed to simplify the use of an external spectrum analyzer in conjunction
with the PD measurement. Critical frequencies can easily be detected and filters can be set for in-depth analysis.

The SPECcompact comprises a spectrum analyzer and a partial discharge

detector in one instrument. This allows
PD measurements even in noisy environments like non-shielded test areas.

Applications
Partial discharge measurements on power and distribution class transformers

are a proven tool to identify and locate defects within the insulation system of
bushings, windings, or accessories. Besides PD acceptance test equipment for
the testing labs in a factory Power Diagnostix offers a wide range of instruments
for on-site on- and offline tests, and for monitoring.

Especially for testing distribution class
transformers the SPECcompact allows measurements with a background noise below the demanded acceptance level.

In addition to the noise supression

functions of the instruments, Power
Diagnostix offers a wide range of high
voltage filters for induced or applied
voltage testing.
PD Monitoring
Partial Discharge Monitoring has become increasingly important in the past
few years. Besides other parameters
like gas in oil analysis, temperatures,
vibrations, or load conditions, etc., the
PD trending information completes a full
set of monitoring data of a transformer
in the field. A series of standard bushing adapter (BA) is available to connect
the measurement system to the test tap
of a transformer bushing. For condition
based maintenance, a portable instrument like the ICMsystem can be used
on-site for temporary measurements.
For continuous monitoring, an instrument such as the SPECmonitor or the
ICMmonitor can be considered. Acoustic sensors in combination with one of
the mentioned PD instruments can be
used to locate a PD fault more precisely.
