Megger PDS 60-v3 – Portable PD Detection System

Megger PDS 60-v3 – Portable PD Detection System

Key Features:

  • Real-time PD evaluation and immediate fault localisation during testing
  • Phase-resolved PD (PRPD) patterns distinguish corona from internal defects
  • High 25 nF coupling capacity for DAC, VLF Sinusoidal and VLF CR voltages
  • Fully automatic calibration and bandwidth adaptation (IEC 60270)
  • Monitored withstand testing with laptop control and instant reporting

The Megger PDS 60-v3 delivers fast, accurate partial discharge diagnostics for medium voltage cables. Its real-time data analysis displays results the moment they occur, while PRPD patterns help technicians instantly recognise defect types such as harmless corona or critical internal PD. The system works seamlessly with Megger VLF and DAC sources up to 60 kVrms and includes the calibrator, laptop and cables needed for immediate on-site use. Automatic calibration and bandwidth adaptation keep operation simple, and the compact design makes transport and set-up straightforward. Whether performing quality checks on new installations or condition monitoring on aged circuits, the PDS 60-v3 provides clear, actionable information without post-processing delays.
