TDR 1170
Hipotronics TDR1170 — The unique features and
new technology used in the TDR 1170 make it the
most flexible and easiest to use instrument available
for advanced cable fault location. The TDR 1170
features an automatic configuration, which can be
modified as necessary. All cable fault data can be
stored and retrieved at any time, ensuring time
savings, consistency and accuracy from one crew to
the next.
The digital TDR 1170 will locate and identify short
circuit (bolted) faults, low resistance shunt faults, open
circuits, high resistance series faults, wet sections,
splices, transformers, cable transitions, and concentric
neutral corrosion. To locate high resistance,
intermittent and flashover faults, the TDR 1170 is
designed to measure in the digital arc reflection,
current impulse, voltage decay, and all differential fault
locating modes. The selection of fault location method
allows the operator to select the method which they
are most familiar with or the method that is most
appropriate for the type of cable and type of fault that
is encountered.
The TDR 1170 requires a high voltage coupler to
interface to a cable fault locator (thumper). The cable
fault locator then provides the voltage and current to
enable the TDR 1170 to quickly and definitively locate
cable faults.
Included with the TDR 1170 is a software package to
allow the stored data to be viewed on a PC and also be
printed and analyzed by office personnel or training
teams.
