Description
The ICMmonitor Portable partial discharge (PD) monitoring system from Power Diagnostix ’s ICMmonitor Portable is a compact non-invasive PD monitor for continuous on-line evaluation of the insulation condition of medium and high voltage (MV and HV) assets. The instrument is used principally for temporary on-line monitoring and spot testing of:
- Power transformers
- Motors
- Generators
- Cable systems
The ICMmonitor Portable comprises a spectrum analyser, an acoustic detector, and a conventional PD monitor in one instrument. This combination enables PD measurements, even with high levels of background noise, on assets such as power transformers within substations or power plants.
Its built-in multiplexer allows you to scan three-phase systems or multiple sensors, and its simple push-button interface and on-screen menus, located in an embedded LCD panel, make it incredibly easy to use.
The display modes include, a horizontal bar graph display, monochrome phase-resolved PD patterns for classification of defects, a scope-like display showing phase-summed charge pulses superimposed with the applied voltage wave, and a spectrum display showing the frequency spectrum of the acquired signals.
Power Diagnostix’s ICMmonitor Portable is an autonomous instrument that, can be used as stand-alone monitoring device. It is equipped with a serial computer interface for the download of trending data and remote access, e.g., by LAN network (TCP/IP) or USB. Special software allows the remote control of the instrument, data evaluation, and in-depth diagnosis of the acquired data. This service software also provides easy access to view, compare, and analyse the stored data.
