PD-Guard

The PD monitoring system PD GUARD is especially developed for continuous partial discharge monitoring of high voltage equipment, like generators, motors and power transformers in the conventional frequency range.

Applications

  1. PERMANENT and PERIODIC ON-line Monitoring on HV Apparatus such as Transformers and Generators.
  2. PERMANENT and PERIODIC On-line Monitoring on HV Cable joints and Cable terminations.
  3. Measurements are made according to international standards (IEC 60270, CIGRE 15/33.03.05)

User Benefits

  1. Clear picture in regard to the current state from the insulation.
  2. Reproducability and comparabillity
  3. Improvement of maintenance schedule
  4. Less unexpected breakdowns
  5. Optimization of the life cycle
