Megger TDR500/3 Basic Handheld Time Domain Reflectometer

Using a Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) is a well established method for finding the location of faults in metallic power or data cables. In the past TDRs have had a reputation of being expensive and difficult to use but now, the Megger series has put paid to that.

The TDR500/3 is hand-held and perfect for locating faults on metallic cables with a minimum resolution of 0.1 m and a 5 km maximum range depending on velocity factor selected and cable type.

Four output impedances are available (25, 50, 75, and 100 Ω) and a velocity factor between 0.2 and 0.99 will meet any cable test requirements.

The TDR500/3 has a simple selection option which together with a 4 way control switch offers an intuitive operation for the user.

 

Megger TDR500/3 Key Features:

  • AUTO selection ensures the most effective parameters are selected dependant on the range required
    • aiding rapid diagnosis of the TDR trace
  • A clear operator controlled cursor allows instant measurement of the distance to the fault
  • A trace HOLD feature also allows the operator to hold a trace on the screen, something not seen on most other handheld TDRs
  • Extra high resolution with white backlit LCD display (256 x 128) with adjustable contrast
  • Monochrome graphical display for easy visuals on key events on the trace
  • Resolution to 0.1 m
  • For use on Telecom TNV-3 circuit, or 150V CAT IV power circuits
  • Power blocking filter not required
  • Environmental protection to IP54
  • 2ns pulse for near end fault location
  • Display distance in metres or feet
