The HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector is designed for line crews performing voltage tests on distribution and transmission lines. As a result, the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector features nine standard voltage ranges from 120V AC to 500kV AC, and a Capacitive Test Point Mode that is accessible in the 120V AC setting. Each time a voltage is detected, the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector will issue an audible and visual indication. It is able to detect voltages on most elbow test points and from a distance of approximately ten inches.
The HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector is supplied as part of a variety of kits; please see the ‘What’s Included?’ section for further details.
As mentioned above, the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector is able to detect the presence of voltage without making contact with the conductor. Its “Sensing Zone” makes it easy to identify voltages on complex overbuilds and underbuilds as it enables directional discrimination. When a voltage has been identified it will issue an audible alarm and bright LEDs will flash.
Nine voltage ranges allow the user to tailor the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector to suit the utility system under investigation. This instrument can be used on both 50Hz and 60Hz systems. It is possible to purchase the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector with custom voltage ranges, please call for further details. Its dual hotstick connection also allows the user to attach a universal spline or shotgun stick as necessary.
Furthermore, the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector’s rugged, waterproof housing makes it suitable for a variety of harsh environments, whilst its lightweight design featuring an electronic touchpad with large buttons ensures that it is easy to handle and manipulate despite challenging conditions.
Adding to the practicality of this instrument is its rechargeable Li-Ion battery. When the HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector’s battery is low it only requires a fifteen-minute charge to provide a full day’s worth of power; charging for three hours provides a week’s worth of power. The HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector is compatible with AC/DC charging options; it can be charged using 12V DC automotive or 115-240V AC outlets. The HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector’s internal circuitry prevents the battery from overcharging and protects it from extreme temperatures. Furthermore, the battery is sealed inside the unit, protecting it from external factors.
The HD Electric PRX-500 Proximity Voltage Detector is an adaptable, easy-to-use and practical instrument suitable for utility professionals working on transmission and distribution systems.
