Megger ICMcompact PD Detector

Megger ICMcompact PD Detector

The Megger ICMcompact PD Detector is part of the Power Diagnostix ICMseries of digital partial discharge detectors. It is a compact, stand-alone instrument for evaluating the condition of medium and high-voltage insulation. The ICMcompact is often used in manufacturing quality assurance and quality control tests. Still, the device may be adapted to non-conventional testing tasks such as field testing and diagnostics by using various preamplifiers and couplers.

Key Features of the ICMcompact include:

The ICMcompact by Power Diagnostix is an advanced partial discharge detector specifically designed for evaluating the condition of medium and high voltage insulation. This device is essential in various settings such as quality assurance, quality control, factory acceptance tests (FAT), end-of-line testing, and post-repair assessments. Its utility is particularly highlighted in critical assets like MV and HV cables, distribution transformers, instrument transformers, and electronic components like insulated-gate bipolar transistors.

• User Interface: It boasts a straightforward push-button interface with an embedded LCD panel for easy navigation and real-time data display.
• Display Modes: The instrument offers diverse display modes including a PD charge meter with adjustable sensitivity, phase-resolved PD patterns for defect classification, and a scope-like display showing charge pulses with voltage wave overlays.
• Connectivity and Control: While autonomous, the ICMcompact can connect to a computer via Power Diagnostix software, enabling functionalities like remote control and screenshot capture.
• Customization Options: Users can enhance the device with options like partial discharge spectrum analysis, fault location for cables, RIV measurement, high voltage measurement, and more.
• Portability and Durability: It is designed for both stationary and field use, with options for battery operation and a rugged case for outdoor environments.
