PD chamber & PD measuring

PD measurement chamber

Due to its encapsulated design, the partial discharge measurement chamber (PD chamber) is shielded against electromagnetic influences from the outside, which results in a very low background noise level during PD measurements in the PD chamber.

The PD chamber is additionally lined with thermal insulation material on the inside and is air-conditioned so that the temperature can be specifically adjusted during measurements.

 

 

PD measurement systems

For partial discharge measurement different devices are available both from the company Omicron, as well as from the company Power Diagnostix.
