Megger Announces Power Cable Fault Locator And Analyzer

Dallas, TX - Megger is pleased to introduce the new PFL20M, a safe, efficient and easy-to-use Power Cable Fault Locator. The PFL20M delivers an impressive energy surge of 1500 Joules at 16 kV, which allows the user to tackle a wide range of cables, test longer cable and test more capacitive cables. An onboard inverter provides a choice of standard 120 or 240 V AC or 12 V DC. It is also ruggedly constructed and weatherproof to IP54 specifications.

A new powerful MTDR cable analyzer is built into the lid of the PFL20M and has all the familiar prelocating techniques such as time domain reflectometry, arc reflection, differential arc reflection and current impulse. The MTDR screen is large and extra bright and is easily viewed in direct sunlight.

The PFL20M1500 includes a 20-kV proof tester and a 60 mA burner for the testing and conditioning of faults. An inductive arc reflection filter keeps the size and weight down, and assures that maximum energy is delivered to the fault.

The Megger PFL20M is the ideal solution for a wide variety of underground distribution cable. Its compact size and portability make it more attractive than larger, fixed installation fault-finding systems.
