Product catalog summary
Overview
The PD Annunciator system by ndb Technologies is designed for remote detection of partial discharge activity in energized switchgear cabinets. It combines TEV and Acoustic testing for optimal results, preventing long-term damage to equipment.

PD Annunciator Module
The module features a fast HF PD detection circuit for TEV testing and an ultrasonic detection circuit with a narrow bandwidth. It uses validation algorithms to determine PD shape and set alarm levels. Multiple modules can be cascaded for broader detection across cabinets, using Ethernet cables for data and power.

Features
  • Simultaneous TEV and Acoustic testing
  • Magnetically mounted for easy installation
  • Air-coupled acoustic sensor
  • Built-in wireless communication
  • Rugged and simple design

Technical Specifications
  • Sensor input: Three dual-mode channels
  • Connector type: BNC connectors
  • TEV frequency: 2 MHz to 1 GHz
  • Ultrasound bandwidth: +/- 5kHz
  • Power supply: 9-26V on RJ45C
  • Alarm: SMS / E-mail

SonoTEV PD Sensor
The SonoTEV sensor detects HF signals from partial discharge using capacitive coupling and targets acoustic PD signals with a surface ultrasonic sensor. It transmits processed signals to the PD Annunciator module.

Technical Specifications
  • TEV Frequency: 10 MHz to 500 MHz
  • Ultrasound Frequency: 40 kHz to +/- 1kHz
  • Power supply: 5V 20mA max
  • Connection: SMA connector
  • Installation: Magnetically mounted

Flexible SonoTEV PD Sensor
This sensor is similar to the SonoTEV but includes a flexible arm for infinite adjustment of the probe’s orientation, enhancing directional noise acquisition.

Technical Specifications
  • TEV Frequency: 10 MHz to 500 MHz
  • Ultrasound Frequency: 40 kHz to +/- 1kHz
  • Power supply: 5V 20mA max
  • Connection: SMA connector
  • Installation: Magnetically mounted

PD Annunciator – Partial Discharge Annunciator system-1

PD Annunciator Remotely detect partial discharge activity inside any energised switchgear cabinet using the ndb Technologies PD Annunciator system. The probe is installed on the unit under test and will give instant status thus preventing long term damage to your switchgear equipment. Its unique design allows simultaneous TEV and Acoustic testing for optimized results. The flexible sensor’s unique design allows for combined directional noise acquisition and TEV testing. The PD Annunciator module is equipped with a fast HF PD detection circuit for TEV testing. It also has an ultrasonic detection circuit with a very narrow bandwidth for optimal results. Validation algorithms are used to determine the PD shape in order to select the proper alarm level. Many PD Annunciator modules can be used in cascade thus enabling PD detection on many switchgear cabinets at the same time. Ethernet cables are used for data transmission and power supply. Simultaneous TEV and Acoustic test Easy to install, magnetically held on any metallic switchgear cabinet Air coupled acoustic sensor Built-in wireless communication Easy operation Simple and effective Rugged design TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS • Sensor input Three dual-mode channels • Connector type • Ultrasound bandwidth • Power supply PD Annunciator main module ndb Technologies inc. • 1405 St-Jean-Baptiste, office 111 • Quebec (QC) G2E 5K2 - Canada • Tel: 1(418)877-7701 Fax: 1(418)877-7787 Email: [email protected]

PD Annunciator – Partial Discharge Annunciator system-2

SONOTEV PD SENSOR The SonoTEV sensor is installed directly on the switchgear’s cabinet metallic surface. It detects HF signals caused by partial discharge activity within the switchgear’s system using a capacitive coupling technology. The SonoTEV sensor is also equipped with a surface ultrasonic sensor that target’s acoustic PD signals. The probe’s internal circuit processes the signals and transmits them to the PD Annunciator module.
