Product catalog summary
Overview: The M5400 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer (SFRA) is designed for diagnosing transformer core and winding movement. It detects mechanical failures or movements due to short circuits, mechanical stresses, or transportation, ensuring transformer performance, reducing maintenance costs, and increasing service life.
Key Features:
  • Technique: Utilizes Sweep Frequency Response Analysis, a proven method for accurate and repeatable frequency domain measurements.
  • Functionality: Sends an excitation signal into the transformer and measures returning signals across a broad frequency range to identify deviations and confirm internal mechanical problems.
  • Applications: Diagnoses issues such as core movement, winding deformation, faulty core grounds, partial winding collapse, hoop buckling, broken or loosened clamping structures, and shorted turns and open windings.
Technical Specifications:
  • Excitation Source: 1 channel, 10 Hz – 25 MHz frequency range, 20 V peak-to-peak output voltage.
  • Measurement Channels: 2 channels, simultaneous sampling, 10 Hz – 25 MHz frequency range, max sampling rate of 100 MS/s.
  • Data Collection: Sweep Frequency method, Ethernet USB/Serial communication, 1000 to 1800 points, >90 dB dynamic range.
  • Data Display: Linear/Log scaling, frequency vs. magnitude/phase plotting, analysis includes difference and sub-band cross-correlation.
Technical Merits:
  • Range: Frequency response measurement from 10 Hz to 25 MHz, with a recommended diagnostic range of 20 Hz to 2 MHz.
  • Resolution: Logarithmically spaced frequency intervals of 1.2%, maintaining constant excitation level for each measurement.
  • Repeatability: High-quality, repeatable measurements suitable for field use.
  • Practicality: Supported by Doble’s Client Service Engineers and extensive field experience.
Physical Specifications:
  • Dimensions: 18.2 x 13.4 x 6.7 inches (46.2 x 34.0 x 17.0 cm).
  • Weight: 13.1 lbs (6.0 kg).
  • Power Supply: 100-240V AC.
  • Operating Temperature: 0° to 50° C, storage temperature -25° to +70° C.
  • Humidity: 0% to 95% non-condensing.

M5000 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer Series-1

M5400 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer (SFRA) A tool for detecting “hidden” transformer faults The M5400 detects mechanical failure or movement of windings due to short circuits, mechanical stresses or transportation. Use it to ensure transformer performance, reduce maintenance cost, and increase the service life of transformers. A major advance in transformer condition analysis. The M5400 uses Sweep Frequency Response Analysis, a proven technique for making accurate and repeatable measurements. Pioneered by Doble the sweep approach has become the industry standard and is the preferred method for making frequency domain measurements. Here’s how SFRA works: The M5400 sends an excitation signal into the transformer and measures the returning signals across a broad frequency range. By comparing this response to baseline and other results (such as from similar units), you can identify deviations and confirm internal mechanical problems. DIAGNOSE problems early. PREVENT expensive equipment Take CONTROL. Why wait for problems to develop? With the M5400’s non-intrusive test technique, you can test your power apparatus any time you suspect a problem. Or just use it as part of your regular maintenance program. Either way, you identify problems before they lead to failure, such as: • Core movement • Winding deformation and displacement • Faulty core grounds • Partial winding collapse • Hoop buckling • Broken or loosened clamping structures • Shorted turns and open windings M5400 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer (SFRA) For Transformer Core & Winding Movement Diagnosis.
