VLF Sine Wave 62 kV

VLF sine wave test system for medium voltage cables

  • Performs cable withstand testing, cable diagnosis, and sheath fault pinpointing
  • Smallest and lightest unit on the market in its class
  • Automatic result interpretation as per latest IEEE 400.2 standard
  • Easy field operation with no need for external computer

The VLF Sine 62 kV, with integrated tan delta, is a compact, robust, and portable high-performance VLF sine wave test system for medium voltage cables.

This multifunctional tool can not only perform VLF and DC testing, but it can also perform sheath testing and sheath fault pinpointing. Moreover, the optional internal tan delta expands the system to assess both cable integrity and condition. The smart VLF system automatically adjusts the test frequency to the cable length, making even tests on 35 kV rated cables (up to 25 km) easy and reliable.

With the VLF Sine 62 kV, field operations require no external computer. The instrument is equipped with intuitive operating software and a large internal memory and evaluates and stores all data automatically. Using the USB port, datasets can be easily exported and processed for report generation via the PC software Easyprot (incl. in delivery). You can review all performed measurements either immediately or at a later point in time.

The system can also be used as a voltage source for the optional PD attachment, the PDS 62-SIN. Using this it can be expanded to a universal testing and diagnostic system enabling withstand testing, tan delta diagnosis, and partial discharge diagnosis. For both VLF Sinus 62 kV and the PDS 62-SIN, transport cases are optionally available allowing the instruments to be safely transported and stored.

MeggerBook Cable & MeggerBook Report Edition Software
 
The setup file below is suitable for the installation of both MeggerBook Cable (full version) and MeggerBook Report Edition (free limited version).
 
When started with a suitable license dongle plugged into the installation PC, the software starts as MeggerBook Cable which allows for easy and comprehensive data evaluation, data archiving, cable management and report creation. A personal quotation for a certain number of licenses can be requested here .
 
Without the required dongle the software starts as MeggerBook Report Edition which allows for seamless report creation and offers the same features as the full version while limiting the data storage options as follows:
 

•  Measurements, analyses and reports are not permanently stored in the database

•  While cable import and storage are not limited, a maximum of 5 cables can be created using the cable editor  of the Report Edition

 

At this time, the software can handle the measurement and test data of the following Megger devices:

 

Test vans:            Centrix, Centrix City, Compact City, R30, Variant

Test systems:     VLF Sine Wave 45 / 62, VLF CR 40/60, TDS 40/60

TDRs:                     Teleflex VX(-P), Teleflex SX

 

Note for test systems VLF Sine Wave 45 and VLF Sine Wave 62:

 

Data of these test systems can only be imported into the software, if the test systems is equipped with firmware version 3.14 or higher. The latest firmware can be found here (VLF Sine Wave 45) and here (VLF Sine Wave 62).

VLF Sine Wave 62 Firmware

Important: When upgrading from a firmware version <3.14 make sure to export all the test data you may still need for reporting purposes to a USB flash drive. Due to a change in the data format, old data will not be available for export after the update!

Installation instructions:

1. Extract the zip archive to the root folder of your USB flash drive.

2. Plug the USB flash drive in your VLF Sinus test system and turn it on.

3. Access the system menu via themenu item.

4. Select themenu item. The USB flash drive is scanned for appropriate firmware and language files which are then offered for selection.

5. Scroll down and select the application file (.img). The firmware update starts and may take a few minutes.

6. After the update has been finished, the system reboots automatically.

7. Perform steps 3 to 4 again to install your preferred language file(s).
