TM1600/MA61 TM1600/MA61
Breaker Analyzer System
The TM1600 breaker analyzer measures a circuit breaker's timing cycle. The timing channels record closings and openings of main contacts, resistor contacts and auxillary contacts. Since the timing channels are not interconnected, you can take measurements of resistor contacts and series-connected breaker chambers without having to disconnect them. A built-in program unit permits easy selection of different sequences of breaker control pulses. The delay time between pulses is set on a thumbwheel. The breaker operation unit can be used to control coil currents of up to 25 A. The time values obtained refer to the exact instant at which voltage was applied to the coil, and a builtin printer provides you with a hardcopy printout immediately after measurement. The TM1600 can be equipped with up to 24 time-measuring channels as required by the user. When more than 24 channels are needed, one or several slave units can be connected together to get an unlimited number of measurement channels. Modular design also makes it easy to combine the system with the MA61 Motion Analyzer. The TM1600 supports communication with personal computers and the CABA Win Breaker Analysis Software. The analyzer can be used for testing breakers taken out of service or for on-line testing. Fully equipped, it weighs only 12 kg (26.5 lbs). 34 MA61 MOTION ANALYZER
The MA61 Motion Analyzer is an excellent supplement to the TM1600. It combines the easy readability of an oscillograph with the extra accuracy ensured by computerized measurement and computer-processed readings. Menu-driven button selection via the built-in display makes operation simple and easy. The MA61 can be equipped with up to 6 analog channels, and it can be easily adapted to the different measurement requirements for high-voltage circuit breaker testing. It can measure and calculate contact paths and the speeds at which breaker contacts operate as well as the current in operating coils. It can also measure dynamic resistance (DRM), voltage, pressure, vibration signals and other analog entities. After measurement, the MA61 performs the necessary calculations and prints results in both diagram and table form on a connected printer (letter-size A4 paper) or via the TM1600's highspeed built-in printer. Moreover, parts of curves can be easily enlarged for closer study. The MA61 incorporates a battery-backed memory that can store up to ten measurements for subsequent processing. TIME-MEASURING MODULE Number of channels 4 Time-measuring channels Each channel is independent of the others and has its own limited-current DC voltage source. Each channel can be set to measure main contacts, resistor contacts or to detect voltage. The input circuits are provided with 2.5 kV opto-isolators. Time-measurement at main contacts 0 to 250 . Test voltage is about 25 V. Measurement current is limited to about 150 mA. Time-measurement at resistor contacts 250 to 3 k. Test voltage is about 50 V.

APPLICATION EXAMPLE
Breaker timing with motion recording Breaker testing
Setup A typical breaker test hookup is shown here. Preparation Set the desired breaker operating sequence on the TM1600. In this case, CLOSE-OPEN (C-O). Recording Enable recording with the READY button. Start the breaker sequence and measurement simultaneously by turning the START switch. Test report The result is printed automatically. This example shows a CLOSEOPEN (C-O) sequence presented in the report 1 format (85 % of actual size). Only the initial contact closing time (for CLOSE) and final contact separation time (for OPEN) are presented in the report 1 format. Short bounces are not shown.
36 Setup Connect the transducers to the breaker. Preparation of the MA61 The following additional settings are needed when you include motion recording in breaker analysis. These settings are menudriven via the built-in display on the MA61. 1. Select test interval (50 ms to 1 s). 2. Calibrate the input(s) connected to the position transducer(s) as follows: a) Close the breaker. b) Record the closed position via a menu option. c) Open the breaker. d) Record the open position. e) Estimate or measure breaker stroke. Enter the value via the menu. f) Enter speed calculation parameters. Close Open 3. Enter the current range and the scale factor for the current shunt if current is to be measured. 4. Enter range and scale factor for other transducers (if used). Recording Press the READY button to prepare the TM1600 for measurement. Travel measurement, time measurement and the breaker sequence all start simultaneously when you turn the START knob. The inputs now record the input voltages obtained from the connected transducers. Test report The motion recording report includes both curves and a table. The table presents calculated breaker parameters such as closing speed, opening speed, overtravel and penetration. The diagram shows one or more time/amplitude curves and the calculated breaker parameters. The time axis scale factor can be changed to provide you with a quick overview or an enlarged view of part of the diagram.
37 The position of the curve in the diagram and the amplitude scale factor can also be changed to make best use of the available space. The damping and speed variations at closing and opening times can be studied on the speed curve obtained from each of the motion-monitoring channels.
