FRA 5311 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer

HAEFELY / Tettex

Many dielectric and mechanical failures in large power transformers are preceded by mechanical changes in the winding structure. The FRA 5311 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer detects transformer winding movements and mechanical failures due to mechanical shock, transportation or short circuits. Detection of these displacements ahead of a dielectric failure can reduce unplanned maintenance costs, and provide the possibility to improve system reliability by preventing outages. Additionally, when damage is discovered, repairs may be targeted to a specific phase winding. Changes in the winding geometry will be reflected by deviations between repeated measurements. Even small winding movements or distortions will cause legible changes in the measured transfer function, which is clearly detectable.
