ACE1 6km Grafische TDR met software

Detail

The ACE1 is a hand held Time Domain Reflectometer weighing only 350 grams with a 6km range and the capacity to store 50 traces with time, date, Vp value, impedance, cursor position and range, saved data may then be downloaded to PC via the USB link using Trace Xtra PC software provided. Historical data may be uploaded to the ACE1 for comparison with current measurements. With a 3 nano second pulse rise time giving a dead zone of only 0.5 mtrs near end and cable faults can be clearly identified. Using pre determined gain and pulse width and with only 5 control buttons, all major operating and setting parameters can be easily accessed. A 6km cable run can be scanned in seconds allowing the operator a view of this cable run, yet arriving quickly to the fault. By using the scan lock facility, the cable can be continuously scanned for the location of intermittent faults or the trace held for closer examination. To enable the ACE1 to test all metallic cables, 4 user selectable impedance settings are provided, 25, 50, 75 and 100 ohms with Vp settings of 1-99% or the equivalent in feet or meters per micro second. Faulty cables may be traced using the warble tone feature, an oscillating tone is injected into the power or transmission line and by using a comerically available tone tracing probe, the suspect line can be identified, for this function an optional receiver is required. The ACE1 is CE approved and is housed in a rugged ABS enclosure rated to IP54.
