Transformer Resistance Testing
-
Transformer insulation resistance deterioration is one of the most common causes of transformer failure: a failing transformer is a costly replacement in an electrical system with the potential for a long downtime. If you fail to maintain your transformer with regular insulation resistance testing (as can be carried out by the Megger Transformer Ohmmeter (MTO) series of transformer test equipment) then it’s likely to fail before reaching its maximum operating life.

Motor Termination Units
-
Since the rise time of IGBTs are in the range of a few tens of nanoseconds (between 50ns-200ns), even short cables between PWM motor drives and motors cause voltage doubling at the motor terminals due to Travelling Wave Phenomenon as in transmission lines. The insulation of motor windings are prone to failure due to high voltage spikes if necessary precautions are not sufficiently taken. RC Type Output Filter Modules reduce these high voltage spikes to protect motors by connecting to stator terminals.

2 Ch Linear Vibration Motor Tester
BK2120C2
-
If it's not broke, break it. And when our BK2120C was a top selling product, we redesigned it. We took all the feedback from our customers and implemented it with a modular design to come up with a system that is more versitile, easier to use, and easier to set up. The core concept is the same; the BK2120C runs up to 4 vibration sweeps, which you define, to check whether your linear vibration motor is within the limits you set. And now you can set up your own feedback so it's even easier to determine the class of pass or the reason for failure. You still get fast, high quality testing for your linear vibration motors on the product line. And it's still versitile enough to be used for QA or QC as well.

Accelerated Product Life Cycle
-
Delserro Engineering Solutions
Under normal conditions it may take years to gather failure data on the life cycle of new products. Through accelerated life testing the overall time to failure can be reduced to weeks by increasing the frequency of the field loads and by removing insignificant stress components. In addition, life cycle testing on a product can be reduced or accelerated dramatically by increasing the stress levels to higher than normal. Putting a product through Accelerated Life Testing can reduce test time from weeks to days while still achieving satisfactory results saving both time and money.

Test Data Management
-
When testing your products, the measurement and test data produced is invaluable in helping your improve your product quality. Most companies do nothing with their test data apart from storing on a hard drive somewhere. Accessing it and using this data is the most valuable way of gaining insights into your manufacturing performance and enabling you to make immediate improvements to help increase product quality whilst reducing the likelihood of unwelcome field failures and expensive product recall events.

Vibration Test
-
Vibration testing determines the dynamic effects on component part of vibration within the frequency ranges and magnitudes that may be encountered during field service. Vibration, for example, causes loosening of parts or relative motion between parts in the specimen, producing objectionable operating characteristics, noise, wear, and physical distortion, and often results in fatigue and failure of mechanical parts.

Handheld Turns Ratio & Winding Resistance Tester
TWR-H Series
-
Handheld TWR-H device is DV Power single-phase instrument designed for measuring transformer winding resistance and turns ratio.The instrument has two output DC sources for measuring transformer winding resistance. The first DC source can output up to 2 A DC and is used for injecting current to the transformer’s high voltage winding. The second DC source can output up to 10 A DC and is used for testing the transformer’s low voltage winding. This is especially useful when measuring winding resistance of distribution transformers. These transformers have large turns ratio and therefore a big difference between resistances of high voltage and low voltage windings. Upon the winding resistance test, it is also possible to demagnetize the transformer core. The demagnetization process is completely automatic and safe.Together with the turns ratio, the instrument also measures excitation current and phase shift. This enables detecting transformer core or winding turns failures which cannot be spotted by measuring turns ratio only. The instrument can output test voltage up to 40 V AC for this test, but it can also output a very low test voltage of 1 V AC which is necessary for turns ratio verification of the majority of current transformers.TWR-H is powered by an internal Li-Ion battery. Up to 100 tests can be performed with a fully charged battery.
