Description

Digifl ex Com is a compact, effi cient refl ectometer for detecting

faults and measuring lengths of metallic telecommunications

and power cables. Many helpful functions permit precise

measuring results even in the near range <5 m and for live low

voltage cables. These include e.g. resolution of 2.5 cm and a

terminating set for near-range measurements, distancedependent

compensation of cable attenuation for measurements

up to 30 km and voltage-resistant measuring inputs up

to 250V. The clearly structured LCD display permanently

shows all settings, thus eliminating any confusing menu structures.

Both inexperienced users and experts quickly fi nd the

right settings and the required results.

A refl ectometer like the Digifl ex Com transmits short electrical

pulses of just a few volts and a pulsewidth of nano to micro

seconds between two connected metallic conductors. Each

change in impedance causes partial refl ection of the pulse

back to the device. The refl ectometer calculates the distance

using the time between transmitted pulse and refl ection: the

distance appears as a trace on the display. This can be used

to identify cable ends, short circuits, interrupts, joints and

cross-talk; distances can be read off easily.
