Partial Discharge Tester (Wet Type)
Automated wet-type partial discharge testing system designed for multi-part efficiency and accurate, noise-controlled validation.

System Description

This partial discharge testing system is designed to increase production efficiency by enabling multi-part processing within a controlled, high-voltage environment. The system performs simultaneous Hipot testing on two parts, followed by sequential partial discharge testing to ensure accurate and reliable measurement results.

Maintaining a noise-free environment is critical for partial discharge testing. This system incorporates fully isolated high-voltage circuits and carefully designed buswork to eliminate electrical interference and cross talk between test channels.

The product under test is submerged in a dielectric bath to simulate operating conditions within an SF₆ enclosure, where testing in free air is not feasible. As with all partial discharge systems, the test chamber is fully shielded and corona-free to minimize electronic and RF noise and ensure measurement integrity.

Vidac Solutions provides complete system integration, including mechanical design, electrical systems, control programming, and data acquisition.
