DDX 9121b

Modular Partial Discharge (PD) & Radio Interference Voltage (RIV) Detector

The DDX 9121b is the latest in the DDX family of partial discharge (PD) & radio interference voltage (RIV) testing instruments. 

It is a fully digital state-of-the-art high-performance PD detector. 

The DDX 9121b is modular and fits a wide range of PD detection applications. 1 to 9 simultaneous and 4 to 36 non-simultaneous measuring inputs are possible. 

Traditional partial discharge measurements according to the latest IEC 60270 or RIV measurement, PD under DC and PD cable site location (SL) are covered. 

Pass/Fail test or Phase Resolved PD (PRPD) analysis are possible as well.
1 to 9 stackable unit(s) communicate with a remote software, which handles data acquisition and display of PD information, test results and generates reports. 
The DDX 9121b increases the laboratory sensitivity as it is equipped with digital filters allowing the measurement frequency band to be shifted into a less noisy range 

and suppressing frequency dependent noise. In addition, there are gating (windowing) possibilities to blank out static interferences.
The reports can be printed out or displayed as a web page (XML format). Users can also export results to a CSV file. 

Software also provides screenshots function for inclusion in other reports.
