HVPD Kronos® Spot Tester

The HVPD Kronos® Spot Tester is a brand new portable diagnostic test unit for detecting partial discharge (PD) in all types of in-service plant, including cables, switchgear, transformers and rotating machines operating at 3.3 kV and above.

The spot tester is a 6-channel, synchronous, battery powered test unit with a rugged and compact design especially optimised for fieldportability.

Quick and easy to set up, it detects the early stages of insulation deterioration, providing an early warning against Medium Voltage (MV)and High Voltage (HV) insulation faults and supports condition-based maintenance (CBM) schemes, reducing unplanned outages, downtime and maintenance costs.

Features and Benefits
