The PRIMEON test van system sets a new benchmark in advanced technology. It offers a comprehensive solution for locating cable faults and can be configured with VLF testing and diagnostic capabilities.
PRIMEON integrates a built-in Teleflex® RDR radar for time domain reflectometry, an insulation testing module, a powerful high-voltage DC source, a multi-stage surge wave generator (thumper) compatible with the digiPHONE +2 for pinpoint accuracy, a high-frequency burner for fault conversion, and a range of industry-standard radar and transient prelocation methods. All functions are controlled from a single, centralized unit featuring a user-friendly graphical interface.
7 individual technologies in one system
PRIMEON is a fault locating powerhouse and offers 7 individual technologies for successfully finding faults:
- Insulation resistance testing
- Time domain reflectometry (cable radar / TDR)
- HV DC testing (DC hipot)
- Fault conversion (burning)
- Integrated HV prelocation methods
- Magnetic-acoustic pinpointing via surging/ thumping in multiple voltage ranges
- Sheath testing and sheath fault pinpointing
A benchmark for safety
Occupational safety and secure working environments are top priorities for us and our customers. That’s why Megger designs its products to lead the market in safety, and PRIMEON is no exception. PRIMEON meets rigorous standards, including EN 50191:2010 and VDE 0104:2011, and is equipped with both a ground connection monitoring circuit (F-Ohm) and a touch potential monitoring circuit (F-U or F-Voltage). This makes PRIMEON a groundbreaking, compact fault location system with unmatched safety standards in the industry.
