SMC PME-500-TR (5m) Breaker Circuit Analyzer with 5M Leads

SMC PME-500-TR (5m) Circuit Breaker Analyzer with 5M Leads

The PME-500-TR (5m) is an extraordinary forward step in the concept of circuit breaker test equipment, due to its simple and easy control method. The equipment saves time and improves testing productivity. The control of the equipment is by a touch screen panel. This allows test parameters to be entered and gives a visual display of the test results in graphic and numeric format. A built-in thermal printer enables test results to be printed immediately.

The PME-500-TR (5m) can be connected to any AC supply between 100 and 240V. The unit is also powered by internal rechargeable batteries that provide 10-hour operation time, allowing to work also when no AC supply is available. The equipment is provided with special test leads that have a multi-pole connector. Measurement of the contact resistance of each main pole is performed automatically, with a test current of 10 A and a resolution of 0.1 µΩ.

All connection elements are located on the front panel. The test connection inputs are duplicated, as the equipment is supplied with special testing cable leads and there are also 4 mm input taps, with which any other cable can be used. The software EuroBreaker Basic is supplied with the equipment. This software enables to download, print and export to MS Excel-readable format the test results previously saved in the unit.

All the features contained in the equipment, such as manual control via the touch screen panel, an internal battery supply, a built-in printer and having a clear and easy to operate system, make the PME- 500-TR the most advanced equipment within its category to test circuit breakers. The unit is enclosed in an airtight, IP67-rated waterproof case.

Applications

• Simultaneous measurement for the 3 main contacts (open/ closed) and 2 auxiliary contacts, including pre-insertion resistors (if present in the circuit breaker)
• Evaluates the synchronism between the circuit breaker poles Determines the maximum currents, opening and closing times, simultaneously in both coils
• Evaluates the state of the substation’s auxillary batteries by graphically showing the coil consumption
• Immediately displays and prints test results, both numerically and graphically
• Automatically calculates the contact resistance in the three chambers
• Travel, speed & acceleration analysis with the optional PME-TCE plug-in module
