TESLA LITE

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The TESLA LITE is a cost-effective power system recorder designed for smaller substations. It records 12 AC currents, 6 voltage channels, and 38 digital channels, storing up to 150 recordings. It operates in three time domains: high-speed transient fault, low-speed dynamic swing, and continuous trend recording. The TESLA Control Panel software facilitates configuration, record management, and real-time data display.
Key Features:
  • 96 samples/cycle transient fault recording capturing up to the 25th harmonic.
  • Dynamic swing recording for disturbance analysis.
  • User-configurable trend recording and control logic for custom triggers.
  • Support for DNP3 and Modbus SCADA, IRIG-B clock synchronization, and data compression for fast file transfer.
  • Real-time metering and cross-triggering capabilities.
Applications: The TESLA LITE is used for verifying relay and breaker operations, improving relay settings, monitoring load variations, analyzing system components, and studying power swing damping. It also helps in monitoring harmonics, voltage conditions, and filter performance.
Recording and Logging: The recorder supports simultaneous multi-functional recording and event logging, including transient fault, dynamic swing, and trend logging. It can log up to 1000 events per day and supports sequence of events logging.
Specifications:
  • Nominal frequency: 50 or 60 Hz.
  • Power supply range: 43 – 275 Vdc, 90 – 265 Vac.
  • Analog input accuracy: +/- 0.1% amplitude, +/- 0.5 degree phase.
  • Record storage capacity: 150 records.
  • Environmental tolerance: -40°C to 85°C, up to 95% humidity without condensation.
Physical and Interface Details: The device weighs 12.25 kg and includes multiple input/output options, such as USB and Ethernet ports, and supports various communication protocols. It is designed to withstand environmental and electrical stresses as per international standards.

TESLA LITE-1

^ERL Power System Monitoring Recorder TESLA LITE Product Overview The TESLA LITE is an economical yet complete power system recorder for applications in smaller substations. This easy-to-use multi-time frame recording system records 12 ac currents, 6 voltage channels and 38 digital (status) channels and stores 150 recordings in on board memory. The TESLA LITE records data simultaneously in three time domains: high speed transient fault (seconds), low speed dynamic swing (minutes), and continuous trend (10 second to 1 hour intervals). A wide variety of triggers are available to initiate recording. The intuitive TESLA Control Panel user interface software configures the recorder, retrieves and manages records and displays real time measured values. Control Panel also includes RecordGraph, a graphical record display and analysis software tool. These features make TESLA LITE a cost effective independent and complete recording solution for small substations. • Easy-to-use settings and analysis software • 96 samples/cycle transient fault recording - captures up to the 25th harmonic • Dynamic swing recording of disturbances. • User-configurable trend recording • Control logic statements to create user definable triggers • Fault location, power factor detectors among many calculated channels • DNP3 and Modbus SCADA support • IRIG-B clock synchronization • Data compression for fast file transfer • 100 BASE-T Fast Ethernet front and rear ports and front USB COM port • Real-time metering of all input and calculated quantities • Cross triggering and database management with RecordBase Central Station Software
