The Raptor-HV, the High Voltage slave, is an optional product that extends the Raptor’s applications to tests that require the use of high AC voltage, up to 2 KV. This product works in combination with a Raptor Master and is visually similar to it.
The Raptor HV connects to the master unit via the Expansion Port, from where it also takes the necessary power. The Raptor HV is a pluggable high-voltage peripheral that takes advantage of all the valuable features in the Raptor Master including the electronically controlled switching amplifier, DSP-based intelligence, and a robust communication and device synchronization system. Naturally, the HV’s control is fully integrated into the master’s console.
In order to comply with international safety requirements, the Raptor HV’s package includes an internal buzzer that signalizes the high voltage output activation and two connectors for an optional rotting warning lamp, and an optional mushroom-type emergency breaker. The internal buzzer can be disabled from the Raptor’s console.
Another outstanding feature is the capacity to inject in frequencies different from the mains frequency, enhancing its electrical testing capacity.
The use of any of the Raptor C-XX systems with the Raptor HV provides a worldwide unique system, which combines both high current and high voltage injection, with suitable power, for the main maintenance and commissioning test applications in substations and switchgear. It is an innovative and advanced substation test system that replaces the need for multiple test sets.
The Raptor HV weighs only 28 kg, and it has the same small and compact size than the rest of Raptor units, with wheels and a folding handle, which provides a lower transportation cost and a reduction of manpower needs.
