HVA60 AC hipot
The HVA60 AC hipot by b2hv is a portable 0.1 Hz VLF cable test system for the testing of medium voltage cables.
At only 57 kg this compact AC hipot is truly quite remarkable and as such is ideal for mobile use.
The powerful output is capable of driving capacitive loads of up to 10 μF.
At maximum output voltage cables with a length of up to 15 km can be tested.
Possible output voltages:
- Sinusoidal: 0 – 62 kV peak, 0 – 44 kV eff
- DC: ± 0 - 60 kV
- Squarewave: 60 kV
The HVA60 AC hipot offers various operating modes.
Cable testing, cable sheath / jacket testing, sheath fault location, cable fault conditioning (burning), vacuum bottle test.
The following features make the HVA60 AC hipot the outstanding cable test system of its class:
- Predefined standard-compliant cable test sequences
- Symmetrical sine wave at high voltage
- RMS measurement of output voltage and current
- Measurement of capacitive and resistive load
- Automatic load dependent frequency selection (0.01 Hz – 0.1 Hz)
- Display of current test time
- Integrated real-time scope function
- Self-explanatory, multilingual software
- Automatic measurement reporting
- Report storage via RS232 (USB optional)
- PC software (HVA Control Center) for data analysis and storage
- Flashover detection and ultra fast switch off
- Flashover voltage measurement
- Time optimized burning mode
- No regular maintenance required
The fully comprehensive safety features guarantee protection of operator and test instrument.
- Short circuit protected output
- 12 kV feedback protection
- Signal lamps for active / inactive high voltage
- Status display of safety functions
- Integrated discharge circuit (DDD®) for device under test
- Main switch with key-lock
- Emergency-off button on front panel
A SINGLE device for NUMEROUS applications:
- Cables: XLPE , PE, EPR, PILC, etc.
- Capacitors
- Switchgear
- Transformers
- Rotating machines (IEEE 433)
- Isolators
- Bushings
The HVA60 AC hipot may be expanded with optional devices into to a full cable diagnostics system.
The HVA system may then be used for tan delta measurement
or partial discharge measurement
