PITE 3836 Ground Fault Locator

PITE 3836 is the updated version of PITE 3836 ground fault locator. This patent-protected product is built based on years of field experience in different DC systems. It specially deals with current leakage DC system of high resistance below 1MΩ. It pinpoints faulty grounding where electrical lines have breakage and current lost to the ground.

Why PITE 3836?
Cost can be tremendous upon bad insulation or grounding in the power system. It may even cause power break-off which is costly to repair. Fast localization and elimination of grounding faults will be significant for electricians and technicians. It is also required by DIN VDE 0100-410 (VDE 0100-410): 2007-06 chapter 411.6.3.1 and IEC 60364-4-41 chapter 413.1.5.4. PITE 3836 is developed to fast detect, track and locate virtual grounding faults on DC systems. This spares you from hours of unnecessary troubleshooting and helps to increase the reliability of your electrical equipment. It is widely used in locomotive, telecom, power utilities, etc

Feature 
Patented  technology, pinpoint current leakage fault with grounding resistance lower than 1MΩ
Config with different sizes of current detector for different environments application
Adjustable output frequency on signal receiver effectively avoids interference from DC system itself
Signal receiver with adjustable sensitivity in different location of circuit help judge current leakage quickly
Digital signal processing technology for detecting grounding resistance and distributing capacitance
No disconnection of the electrical installation, ground fault location is carried out during operation
Direction (positive or reversed) indicating for Leaking current help fast locate the faulty grounding 
Waveform analysis will analyze the interference signal in the circuit, greatly keep it away from interfered frequency 
Signal-generator with adjustable output voltage (24V, 48V, 110V and 220V) and output frequency (0.5～1000Hz), suitable for different electronic equipments
More signal receivers can work simultaneously to narrow down the searching scope and find out the fault quicker
Reflects aging status of facilities for further reparation, and reduced maintenance and repair costs.

Typical application 
Railway: signal, communication and locomotive electronic equipments in railway

Communication: electronic equipments of different voltage range with faulty grounding

Power utility: DC system with faulty grounding, e.g. switchgear in substation

Others: DC system in aviation, metallurgy, auto works, household appliances and so on
