GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

TDX 5000 equipment performs the measurement of the Tan

Delta, of the dissipation factor and of the capacitance of a

transformer or of any device, at the frequency of the mains or

in a wide frequency range. The measurement is performed by

patented technology.

TDX 5000 measurement circuitry incorporates a reference high

voltage capacitor, rated 200 pF, with a Tan Delta better than

0.005%, and a reference resistor bridge, with accuracy better

than 0.01%, and thermal drift less than 1 ppM/°C. The patented

circuitry and the variable frequency output make test results

immune from external noise.

Available test selections:

. Ungrounded: UST-A; UST-B; UST A+B

. Grounded: GST; GSTg-A; GSTg-B; GSTg-A+B.

TDX 5000 is powered by an internal voltage generator with

electronic control.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The STS family includes three models : STS 5000, STS 4000

and TDX 5000. TDX 5000 is developed as a compact solution

for high voltage Capacitance and Tan Delta (Dissipation Fac-

tor) measurements. Using the reactor option, TDX 5000 can

also perform tests on rotating machines.

In the local control mode, the selected output is adjustable and

metered on the large, graphic LCD display. With the control knob

and the LCD display, it is possible to enter the MENU mode, that

allows to set many func ons and that make TDX 5000 a very po-

werful tes ng device, with manual and automa c tes ng capa-

bili es and with the possibility to transfer test results to a PC via

ETHERNET or Pen Drive. The TDMS so ware suite, which comes

with the test set, allows to download, display and analyse test

results obtained in local mode. Remote maintenance and dia-

gnos c of the instrument is available via Ethernet. TDMS opera-

tes with all Windows® versions.

The ease of opera on has been the ﬁ rst goal

of TDX 5000 unit. This is why the LCD display is so

large and the dialogue in MENU mode is made easy.

TDX 5000 includes the detec on of the digital signal coming

from the RTCD- Compensa ng Reactor op on.

The instrument is housed in a transportable aluminium box,

which is provided with cover and handles for ease of transporta-

 on. A transport trolley can be op onally supplied.

TDMS - Test & Data Management Software

TDMS, Test & Data Management Software, is a powerful

software package providing data management for acceptance

and maintenance testing activities. Electrical apparatus data

and test results are saved in the TDMS database for historical

results analysis.

The TDMS database organizes test data and results for the

majority of electrical apparatus tested with ISA test sets and

related software.

PADS - Power Apparatus Diagnostic Software

PADS - Power Apparatus Diagnostic Software is a power-

ful software application, included in TDMS software, that

optionally allows the remote control of the STS family: STS 5000,

STS 4000, TDX 5000. The software performs various tasks, such as:

. Control STS and TD remotely from PC

. Create test plan

. Download stored test results via Ethernet cable

. Create and customize test reports

. Print test results

This program runs under Windows© environment.

Before star ng a test, all relevant test object data are input into

the header, which is made of four screens. These data are used

by the device for the following test execu on. If, during tests,

some results do not conform and nominal data are to be modiﬁ

ed, the change is made in the Header, so that consistent nominal

data and the corresponding test results are saved together.

If the device is a PT, the Capacitance tests and the no-load current

test can be pre-set together, to form a single Test Plan. The

Test Plan can be saved and recalled; up to 64 diﬀ erent plans can

be stored into memory.

Nominal values window: from these nominal data,

the program computes the nominal saturation knee.

Tests header window: test reference data.

Tolerances window allows se ng the tolerances for

each of the available tests.

Test selection window: it allows selec ng the test to

be performed.

At the end of the programming, star ng the ﬁ rst test will

execute the complete sequence. During the test, test results

are stored in the memory. The test set minimizes the test

dura on, in order to avoid over-hea ng the components. The

same feature is available when controlling the test set via PC

by PADS.
