ACCUMAX
The Transmission Line Analyzer from Taurus creates a new platform for transmission line maintenance. This revolutionary new future-proof platform significantly minimizes downtime and overall line maintenance time. The system offers cost-effective monitoring of AC overhead transmission circuits on any de-energized line from 66 kV and above.
The utility of Overhead Offline Fault Analyzer System-ACCUMAX-3
- Commissioning of new Overhead Transmission Line
- Management of Existing Overhead Transmission Line
Now Available on GEM Portal
Application of “Overhead Offline fault analyzer system-ACCUMAX-3” inline pre-commissioning
The ACCUMAX-3 serves as a key application tool in documenting line pre-commissioning tests like
- Line length test
- Continuity test
- Phase Sequence test
- Circuit Verification test
- Line Healthiness test
Application of “Overhead Offline fault analyzer system-ACCUMAX-3” inline Breakdown Maintenance of Existing Transmission lines
The Line Fault Locator unit displays distance of line fault from the testing station/end of the overhead line, with an accuracy of 100 Mtrs. without any input parameter references. The fault locator detects any type of OPEN/SHORT Faults that causes line breakdown
Find the fault – variable time
Fix the fault – fixed time
- Fix the Fault- A necessary fixed time
- Find the Fault-Can also be a fixed component with a huge time reduction
Utility of ACCUMAX-3 in Preventive Management
Line Signature Analysis helps in understanding the developing faults in the line, well in advance by doing serial comparison Line signature data, so that remedial action can be taken before the line breaks down.
“Overhead Offline Fault Analyzer System-ACCUMAX-3 being an auto-calibrated portable system is useful in monitoring & analyzing of critical line condition and performance parameters which includes all types of faults,line healthiness. Line component data is analyzed to optimize asset utilization and to improve system reliability and quality of supply.
