Magazine | Issue 1 2019 Long-terM ConVenIenCe The CPL 844 is a bushing sensor designed for long-term, permanent installation at the test taps of transformer bushings. With its built-in protection circuits, the CPL 844 enables you to safely perform on-line partial discharge (PD) measurements and monitor- ing during transformer operation without having to schedule an outage. Safe and easy connections One CPL 844 sensor is connected to each transformer bush- ing test tap with a bushing tap adapter to match the specific test tap design. These taps are connected to a terminal box that is installed at a convenient height on the transformer tank. The terminal box allows you to make convenient plug- and-play connections with the PD measurement device, such as our MPD 600, OMS 605 or new MONTESTO 200. The CPL 844 permanent installation kit includes: a) three CPL 844 sensors and adapters, b) one terminal box and c) three TCN triaxial cables with pre-installed connections. you quickly and reliably determine the signal source.” Frank adds, “Data from third-party sensors can also be easily integrated for correlation with the PD data.” Various application areas “Asset manufacturers, service compa- nies, as well as maintenance teams at utilities and industrial sites will appreci- ate the versatility of MONTESTO 200. For example, the two-in-one PD testing and temporary monitoring solution can easily be used to clarify asset insula- tion issues during warranty periods and to periodically check the insula- tion condition during an asset’s service life. MONTESTO 200 will also help users to observe assets at risk over extended periods of time and to plan maintenance and investments based on asset condition,” Frank concludes.
