PortaTest

Fully automatic test device for insulating and transformer oils

The PortaTest oil test device enables the fully automatic determination of the dielectric strength of insulating oils. It can be used both on-site and in the laboratory. The widely opening protective cover allows the test cell to be easily placed on the high-voltage electrodes in the test chamber.

Key Facts:

Dielectric strength test
TEST VOLTAGES 60 kV, 80 kV and 100 kV
Testing of insulating materials
Variable TEST VOLTAGE and variable TEST VOLTAGE ramp
Built-in test sequences according to national and international standards

Fully automatic determination of the dielectric strength of insulating oils

PortaTest test devices support you in the efficient execution of your test tasks. Based on the underlying test standard, the desired test program can be selected. You will then be shown the test electrode required for the test standard and the electrode spacing. The adjustment gauge included with the PortaTest makes it easier for you to adjust the electrode spacing. Now all you have to do is fill the oil into the test tray, close the test chamber and start the oil test.

The test sequence is fully automatic. For all common national and international standards and test specifications, the corresponding test sequences are stored in the oil test device. Additionally, up to 10 test sequences can be self-defined and stored in the device.

In total, the following test runs are available

13 standard test sequences suitable for the following test standards:
- IEC 60156
- VDE 0370/96
- BS 5874/80
- UTE C27-221/74
- UNE 21309/89
- NEN 10156
- SEV 3141/69
- CEI 10-1/73
- ASTM-D 1816/90
- ASTM-D 877/90
- JIS 2101/82
- JIS Si 2101/82
- IS 6855/92
10 freely programmable test sequences
Short test plan for rapid condition assessment (test duration: 5 min.)
Overload test, individual breakdown measurement
Withstand voltage test (1 min. – 24 h) with programmable ramp rate
Step test (1 – 10 steps)

Oil samples can be identified by the PortaTest either automatically with a sequential number or by the operator entering a number.

After each test, a detailed test protocol is printed using the built-in thermal printer. In addition to the test standard used, the printout includes the date, time, sample number, individual breakdown values, as well as the mean value and standard deviation.

If necessary, the test results can also be transferred from the oil tester to the PC, saved and test reports printed out using SCHLEICH's own PrintCom PC software. PrintCom saves the results in EXCEL^® format. The EXCEL® form is freely configurable and allows the easy creation of individual test reports.

Operation is very simple and user-friendly thanks to the clear graphic display. Four function keys below the display are sufficient for input. They are used for selecting the test sequence, data entry, configuring custom test sequences, and general configuration of the test device in the setup. Here, settings and options such as language, etc., can be selected.
