BAUR/HVT IRG 2000 - Time Domain Reflectometer

Cable fault location with the BAUR IRG 2000

The IRG 2000 impulse reflection measurement unit or time domain reflectometer is a handy, easy-to-carry device for single-phase cable fault pre-location. It is used in combination with a surge voltage generator on low-, medium- and high-voltage cables 0 - 65 km in length. It can also be used on live cables carrying voltage up to 400 V.

The shortcut to cable fault location

• Easy and quick cable fault location
• Light, compact and manageable
• Main unit for the tried-and-tested pre-location method
• Ideal for integration in measurement systems

The IRG 2000 time domain reflectometer is used to pre-locate cable faults using time-domain reflectometry and can be used on low-, medium- and high-voltage cables up to 65 km in length. An integrated voltage filter enables direct measurement on live cables up to 400 V.

Additional pre-location methods are available in combination with a surge voltage generator and various system couplings (e.g. in a BAUR Syscompact 2000).

Parameters can be set for each measurement method via the user interface; the menu navigation supports the operator when carrying out the measurements. The traces are displayed and are easy to evaluate using the function keys. The LC color display makes it possible to present up to three traces in different colors at the same time.

The IRG 2000 is light, convenient, and weather-resistant (splash water and dust protection). The device can be operated with its built-in rechargeable battery or mains connection as required.
