About the product
- Partial discharge diagnostics with VLF sinusoidal voltage up to 62 kVpeak
- Weighs only 14.5 kg, the lightest PD measuring unit on the market
- Real-time data evaluation and display of results, no post-processing needed
- General and localised phase resolved PD pattern (PRPD) display for defect type recognition
The PDS 62-SIN portable partial discharge (PD) detection and localisation system give you fast and reliable information about the quality and the condition of your cables, making it particularly useful for Network Operators.
Thanks to the PDS 62-SIN, for the first time it has become possible to immediately locate faults in underground cables during the actual PD measurement. The PDS 62-SIN has been designed for all Megger VLF Sinusoidal testers up to 62 kVpeak.
Thanks to the PD detector software, it has never been easier to perform PD measurements, starting with the real-time data analysis and display of results during the actual measurement, and ending with the highest flexibility in creating customised reports. Furthermore, the PD detector software will support you with data evaluation by means of so-called 'Phase Resolved Partial Discharge (PRPD)' patterns. With help from these PRPD patterns, you can distinguish between different types of PD defects, such as corona or internal PD. This is of major importance for partial discharges located at terminations; corona discharges are not problematic, whereas internal PD is.
With its weight of only 15 kg, the PDS 62-SIN is the lightest PD measuring unit on the market. The PDS 62-SIN comes with all accessories needed to perform PD measurements, like the in-house and certified PD calibrator, laptop, and connection cables.

Software and firmware updates
PD Software
Version 4.x.x requires the additional purchase of a new digital license key. This version does not support the older PD Software V3.x.x dongle license key system.
PD Detector Software
latest version
Improvements:
- Pulse display in the Qt/Ut diagram for the selected PD pulse
- PRPD displayed according to the configured voltage levels in the report
- Calibration cursor labeling clarified
- Updated to Qt 6 and OpenSSL 3
Fixes
- Conversion between kVpeak and kVRMS improved in the source plugin.
- The TDM45 does not fall back to synthetic mode in CR operation when the capacity is insufficient.
PD Detector Software Setup
- Resolves the issue with the version conflicts of PDv4 (license) down to the PDv3 (dongle)
- Customers who use the Centrix Evolution with the newest GPSP and PDv4 are able to export data from the van and import it to the older Windows PD software v3.5.12.
