Dynamic resistance Measurement Kit - ZDRM-2
See in the Photos section, Fig. 1: Results obtained with Old Method and Fig. 2: Results obtained with New Method.
The KIT has been designed to determine the main- and arcing-contact resistance curve (Fig. 1). The Zensol KIT allows to use a new method to obtain a "clean" resistance curve (Fig. 2), thus providing a reliable diagnostic tool for assessing the status of the breaker contacts.
Main advantages
- Easy and straightforward interpretation of the resistance curve
- Easy detection of faulty contacts (excessive wear, misalignment, etc.)
- Accurate values of the main- and arcing contact resistance
- Accurate values of the main- and arcing contact wipes
- Simple mathematical algorithm for assessing the status of the breaker contacts
- New test method validated on high-voltage air-blast and SF6 gas circuit breakers
- Instantaneous display of the results via the CBA Win© software
- Direct connection to the CBA-32P© circuit breaker analyzers
