Whether cloud-based in real time or manually, our solutions are a convincing way to increase system availability.
Surge voltages can overload electrical installations and the protective devices provided to protect them. Find out about the state of your system and your surge protection early, before failures occur.
ImpulseCheck is the world's first intelligent assistance system for surge protection in the field of mains protection. The module allows you to measure the state of health of every single protective device via cloud connection and provides new digital services.
With it, you can detect the actual load on the surge protective devices being monitored, and therefore on your system as well. This makes it possible to predict failures and schedule service more effectively.
ImpulseCheck continuously monitors your installation's active conductors at the SPD. It does this by detecting both surge currents and high-frequency voltage impulses. The captured values are sent to PROFICLOUD and interpreted and evaluated using the Phoenix Contact surge protective device (SPDs) models stored there.
ImpulseCheck counts not only the different impulses, but also analyzes the individual results in regard to amplitude, charge, and specific energy.
You receive the actual load on your system directly and detect the current status (state of health) of each individual protective plug. Thanks to the connection with PROFICLOUD, the information can be displayed in any web browser. Various results, such as any change in status of a protective plug, are also reported to you by the system via a push message. This allows you to act before an SPD actually fails.
ImpulseCheck monitors the active conductors in the power supply cables. The impulses are measured even if no surge protection is installed, making it possible to draw conclusions about the load on the system. ImpulseCheck is the best choice for innovative and automated calculation of the state of health of your surge protective devices.The assistance system monitors surge protective devices for type 1 and 2 power supplies.
CHECKMASTER 2, on the other hand, is a test device for use with nearly all of Phoenix Contact's pluggable surge protective devices. With CHECKMASTER 2, you can manually test the surge protection plugs used for the power supply and for the measurement, control, and data technology.
According to IEC 62305-3, surge protective devices must be tested regularly. In addition, the standard requires the traceable documentation of test values.
ImpulseCheck monitors arresters in real time. You can output the current status at any time for documentation purposes with the push of a button.
Testing with CHECKMASTER 2 must be performed manually.
The CHECKMASTER checks surge protective devices from Phoenix Contact according to their specific electrical properties. The acquisition of order numbers is error free with the barcode scanner.
The test object is inserted into the associated test adapter. When the scanner detects the device type, the test is started automatically upon insertion.
Alternatively, the order number of the test object can be entered via the touch panel after insertion into the test adapter.
Test result
Tolerance limit reached – Replacement recommended
If the CHECKMASTER indicates "Tolerance limit reached", the arrester has already been subjected to stress several times. Although the surge protective device is still functional, it should be replaced as part of predictive maintenance.
