Megger EGIL BM-19093 EGIL Circuit breaker analyzer

Product Overview

The Megger Egil with PC comes with a USB interface for communication with a PC and the CABA Win™ Circuit Breaker Analysis Software.

The Egil is intended for use on circuit breakers with one contact per phase. EGIL incorporates features commonly found on more complex test systems, but is designed to be smaller, simpler to use and less expensive than other similar test sets. If the main contacts are equipped with parallel pre-insertion resistor contacts, the Megger Egil automatically records the difference between main and resistor contacts. Auxiliary contact timing as well as coil current traces are recorded.

The Megger EGIL is equipped with a connector marked USB. The EGIL can be connected to a computer in which the CABA Breaker Analysis program has been installed. This enables you to: store settings and test parameters for individual breakers in the computer; make quick evaluations and comparisons; print out reports; store test results in the computer.

It’s price makes it attractive to smaller utilities and it is an ideal supplementary product for maintenance departments at larger power companies and for testing contractors.

The EGIL is intended primarily for testing high-voltage circuit breakers at medium-level voltages. There must not, however, be more than one break per phase since the time channels are not galvanically isolated. Contact times are recorded for main contacts, pre-insertion resistor contacts and auxiliary contacts. Coil currents are also recorded.

Coil currents are measured automatically and presented together with other readings immediately after testing on the display window or via the built-in printer. EGIL is easy to use – a built-in sequencer (program unit) sets the instrument automatically for the next sequential breaker operation.

Intended primarily for measuring travel (motion), the optional analog input channel finds many other uses as well. If this channel is not installed, all associated menu commands are hidden. A Megger EGIL with the SDRM option together with the SDRM accessory enables static and dynamic resistance measurements.

FEATURES

Two separate timing channels for measurement of auxiliary contacts.

Analog measurement channels for travel transducers or general voltage/current measurements.
Static and dynamic resistance measurements along with the SDRM201 optional accessory.
