The handheld devices TDR 500 and TDR 510 present new and robust time domain reflectometers for length determination and fault location in power and data cables.
The handheld devices, TDR 500 and TDR 510 from BAUR Prüf- und Messtechnik GmbH, troubleshooters get new and robust time-domain reflectometers for length determination and fault location in power and data cables. Various settings that are uncomplicated to define make a variety of applications possible for the user, whereby the measurement accuracy is always 1%. This precision is of benefit not only during fault location, but also during length measurement of barreled or laid cables.
With the smallest adjustable cable length of 7m, it becomes easier to locate close faults, such as in home installations. The impedance adjustment and the propagation speed setting help achieve precise measurement results even in long cable routes up to 6 km. An essential help for users is the table with cable values (impedance and pulse propagation) on the device rear side.

With the smallest adjustable cable length of 7m, it becomes easier to locate close faults, such as in home installations.
Two modes support the fault location: the single pulse mode for single, permanent faults and the continuous pulse mode for intermittent, i.e. non-continuous faults. Safe testing under voltage is not a problem when using the optional separation filter (measurement category CAT IV / 600V in compliance with EN 61010). The time domain reflectometers are dustproof and protected against spray water, weigh only 350g and are easy to handle.
Unlike the TDR 500, the TDR 510 also comes with memory for 50 measurement results as well as a USB interface. In this way, the measurement results can be analyzed with the TDR software on a PC or laptop.
