Heavy weight in high current measurements
Choose the Sonel MZC-330S high-current short-circuit loop impedance meter with efficient ventilation system for smooth and effective
operation without downtime.
In case of multiple short-circuit loop impedance measurements, some measuring devices may get blocked. This problem does not affect the Sonel MZC-330S meter.
To prevent blockages, the device is equipped with a special high performance ventilation system that significantly reduces the time required to cool the
short-circuit resistor. The Sonel MZC-330S advanced high current meter is the right choice for professionals in the power, electrical, as well as installation
and measurement industries. The device combines extensive measuring capabilities with high durability and resistance to harsh working conditions.
A specially developed ventilation system translates into greater efficiency and significantly reduces working time.
Reaching the areas unattainable to others
In direct vicinity of transformers or in transformer stations, where the circuits are equipped with a high current
protection (fuse-links with the rating of several hundred amperes, motor circuit breakers), fault currents may reach
several hundreds of kilo-amps. Measurement of fault loop impedance in such networks requires a high-current meter,
which is capable of measuring ZS values at the level of single milliohms. Our patented technical solution, which uses
components not available in the commercial offer (unique fault resistor), enables us to offer the meter with perfect
performance in such demanding conditions
Measurements without compromise
Commercially available fault loop impedance meters perform the measurements asymmetrically, i.e. using half-wave current. This
solution introduces the transitional constant and DC constant, which does not always result in a linear behaviour of the transformer
during the tests. This in turn, affects the accuracy of the results.
MZC-330S high-current meter applies symmetrical current for measurements, which means that they use the full wave - thanks to the advanced
design of the measuring system and fault circuit.
Applications
The instrument is used for measurements in networks with the following rated voltage:
These parameters make the meter perfect for tests and measurements at wind farms, high-speed rail and in facilities controlled by power companies.
Remote working is always the best solution
The instrument can be controlled remotely - all that is required is for the meter to be logged into the same Wi-Fi network as the
controlling device, i.e. any device with a web browser. After calling up the virtual control panel in the browser, the user will be
able to start the measurement from a convenient distance and then read out the results.
By the same means, he will gain access to the stored measurement results. Importantly, he or she will also be
able to download them in the classic manner, i.e. via a USB connection.
