The Megger Ferrolux FLG audio frequency generator is a measuring system that provides solutions to a wide variety of problems for operators of power and telecommunication cable systems as well as public utility companies for gas and water supply. The Ferrolux FLG can be used for cable tracing, cable selection, cable fault location, or the location of metallic pipelines.
The Ferrolux FLG can transmit all available frequencies simultaneously. It eliminates the need to switch frequencies manually on the transmitter while tracing the line.
Furthermore, a pulsed signal allows for clear identification of the transmitter signal in a noisy environment. The Ferrolux FLG transmitter has an integrated antenna for inductive coupling of the signal and a large colour display and the proven EasyGo menu allows for intuitive operation.
The instrument measures and displays the loop impedance of the test object, output voltage, current, and phase angle. Continuous operation when feeding capacitive loads (insulated gas pipes) or inductive loads (shorted cables) also does not cause any overheating problems. Available in 12W or 50W models.
