SSTDR Theory
Indirect Wire Coupling Technology"[LiveWire Innovation] delivered and demonstrated a unit which we immediately used to accurately locate a cable fault on one of our sub-sea 5 KV cables. Prior to this we had used conventional TDR meters which had given us unreliable results and showed ghost signals which could have indicated additional faults that didn't exist. The cost implications of this are huge."
-Mike Mason, Dubai PetroleumWith the complexity of today’s wiring systems, like those found in aircraft, automobiles, and trains, the FaultChaser™ Handheld is an easy-to-use tool that accurately locates open circuits and short circuits on all wire and cable types.
Product Features
- Simple, easy-to-understand user interface
- Locates open and short circuits
- Distance to fault accuracy of ±1% with known VOP and consistent cable parameters
- Memory storage for two cable types
- Large backlit LCD display
- Rugged case
