Product Description

Overview
The Megger TDR1000/3P is a handheld time-domain reflectometer designed for locating faults in metallic cables. Here is an overview of its configuration, capability, and characteristics.
Simple Operation

It features an automatic setup function, enabling users to start testing quickly without complex configurations. The device also has a joystick or a four-way control switch, making the operation simple and intuitive.

High-Resolution Measurement

With an ultra-fast pulse of 2 ns, it has a minimum resolution of 0.1 m, which is the highest in its class, allowing for accurate location of near-end faults.

Wide Measurement Range

The length measurement range is from 10 m to 5000 m (30 ft to 15000 ft), depending on the velocity factor and cable type.

Multiple Output Impedances

It offers four output impedance options, namely 25 Ω, 50 Ω, 75 Ω, and 100 Ω, to meet the testing requirements of different types of cables.

Velocity Factor Adjustment

The velocity factor can be adjusted between 0.2 and 0.99 in steps of 0.01, enabling users to adjust it according to the characteristics of different cables for better test results.

Data Comparison Function

The trace-hold function allows users to compare different cables or different conditions of the same cable, which is beneficial for more accurately locating fault points.

Good Protection Performance

It has an IP54 protection rating, which means it is protected against dust and splashes of water, suitable for use in various outdoor environments. When used with the optional fused test lead set, the instrument meets the IEC61010-1 standard and can be connected to a live system of 150V CAT IV.

Display and Data Storage

It is equipped with a backlit graphic monochrome LCD with a resolution of 256×128 pixels, and the display contrast is adjustable.

Power Supply

It is powered by five AA (LR6) alkaline batteries or nickel-metal hydride batteries. The battery life is up to 14 hours (typical).

Applications

It is suitable for fault detection of various metallic cables, including power cables, coaxial cables, and data/communication cables. It is widely used in power systems, communication networks, industrial automation, building construction, transportation systems, public facility management, and other fields.
