• 8-kVA high current and high voltage Raptor System
• For medium-to-high current injection on moderate loads
• Audible safety buzzer
• Detachable rotary warning lamp and Emergency stop button
• Outstanding Raptor style portability

The Raptor CV-15 features the entire functionality of the C-05 and supplies 8 kVA power for medium-to-high current injection on moderate loads when making several conductors turns is not practical or when the system cannot be placed close to the receiver, thus imposing the use of a longer cable.

The Raptor MS is the master unit of any Raptor configuration. It provides the connection for the touchscreen console and can be used as a stand-alone for primary test applications that do not require extremely high currents. When slave units are added, the MS will detect them automatically over the infrared link and will accommodate the system’s parameters with no intervention from the user.

The Raptor MS features a digital waveform generator driving a 3-kVA switching amplifier designed for a maximum 15 kA throughput. The amplifier’s output is applied to a toroidal winding that surrounds the Raptor’s pass-through hole internally. A concentrically aligned Rogowsky sensor measures the current inside the hole, providing continuous feedback to the amplifier for dynamic compensation of load or supply variations with an accuracy better than 1%.

In addition to the 20-400 Hz variable frequency and to the high current output which is common to all Raptor units, the MS features a 2000-VA auxiliary output that supplies up to 35 A in current mode and up to 200 V in voltage mode, as well as measuring inputs for external AC or DC, including a high sensitivity 0-3 V input. As an alternate method for trip detection, a binary input is also provided to monitor the activity of a dry contact or energized point in the object being tested. The input is sensitive to voltage for automatic mode switching. Finally, the MS includes a system expansion connector for future developments.

The factory- or user-defined test templates pick up only the necessary among all these test and measurement resources for each type of job, so that the user only needs to select a template from the menu and start the test. The standard list includes templates for circuit breakers, current transformers, trip testing, low impedance, ratios, reclosing, and many more. This approach provides a cleaner screen layout because the user is presented only with the data that is needed for each specific task.

All Raptors are powered by single-phase 240 VAC 50/60 Hz and include an automatic thermal-magnetic cut-off switch for protection against internal failures. A protective nylon cover featuring a generous pocket for accessories is also included as standard. This cover leaves the foldable handle and the wheels uncovered for easy transportation and can be quickly removed for working.

The Raptor-HV, the High Voltage slave, is an optional product that extends the Raptor’s applications to tests that require the use of high AC voltage, up to 2 KV. This product works in combination with a Raptor Master and is visually similar to it.

The Raptor HV connects to the master unit via the Expansion Port, from where it also takes the necessary power. The Raptor HV is a pluggable high-voltage peripheral that takes advantage of all the valuable features in the Raptor Master including the electronically controlled switching amplifier, DSP-based intelligence, and a robust communication and device synchronization system. Naturally, the HV’s control is fully integrated into the master’s console.

In order to comply with international safety requirements, the Raptor HV’s package includes an internal buzzer that signalizes the high voltage output activation and two connectors for an optional rotting warning lamp, and an optional mushroom-type emergency breaker. The internal buzzer can be disabled from the Raptor’s console.

Another outstanding feature is the capacity to inject in frequencies different from the mains frequency, enhancing its electrical testing capacity.

The use of any of the Raptor C-XX systems with the Raptor HV provides a world-wide unique system, which combines both high current and high voltage injection, with suitable power, for the main maintenance and commissioning test applications in substations and switchgear. It is an innovative and advanced substation test system that replaces the need for multiple test sets.

The Raptor HV weighs only 28 kg, and it has the same small and compact size than the rest of Raptor units, with wheels and folding handle, that provides a lower transportation cost and a reduction of manpower needs.
