HVA40-5
Extra power VLF high voltage test set

The HVA40-5 is a member of the HVA series with extra power, with an output current up to 120 mA. This extends greatly the maximum load and therefore the testable length of a cable. It is a compact and portable VLF test set for assessing the condition of medium-voltage cables up to 25 kV (in accordance with IEEE 400.2). In addition to VLF testing (sine and square wave) and DC testing, the HVA40-5 also supports sheath testing and sheath fault location (additional sheath fault locator needed).

 

Extra power: Outstanding performance considering size and weight vs. output load. Devices under test more than 15 km in length can be tested at 32 kVrms with 0.1 Hz (at 250 pF/m cable capacitance and 3.8 μF load).

Safety first: Two simultaneous ways of discharging (electronic and mechanical) plus integrated 12 kV backfeed protection (at 50/60 Hz) ensure maximum operator safety.

Connectivity: On-site, no laptop is required. All results can be later downloaded via USB for further analysis and easy reporting using the b2 ControlCenter.

Flexible connection options: Robust HV connectors allow the use of various HV test lead lengths, quick replacement, and easy upgrades for diagnostic system integration.

CHARACTERISTICS

Tan Delta and Partial Discharge diagnostics

HVA40-5 can be extended to a complete cable diagnostic system at any time.

Dry System

HVA test sets are constructed with non-arcing contacts and no need to change oil. This eliminates routine servicing and makes the test sets almost maintenance-free.

unlimited operating time

HVA generators are designed for continuous operation without any thermal limitations.

COMPACT AND PORTABLE

Our HVA series have been designed for maximum portability and on-site use. It makes them widely applicable for in-field use.
