SATEC, an innovative supplier of power quality analysers and software serving the electrical utility, industrial and commercial markets announces the addition of a powerful Digital Fault Recorder (DFR) to the capabilities of its model BFM-II Second-Generation Branch Feeder Monitor. Designed specifically for electrical distribution substation applications, the Digital Fault Recorder functionality provides substation engineers with critical metering, power quality and fault recording data for relay tripping and reclosure operations, power disturbances and other system anomalies.
NEW! DIGITAL FAULT RECORDER WITH POWER QUALITY ANALYTICS
Digital Fault Recording (DFR) functionality enhances the BFM-II’s substation monitoring capabilities with Power Quality Metering.
The BFM-ll’s unique design allows it to easily and cost-effectively address much needed upgrades to older substations where existing in-service electromechanical devices aren’t capable of providing necessary detail to operate in today’s demanding digital smart grid environment.
Specifically for electrical distribution substation applications
The Digital Fault Recorder functionality provides substation engineers with critical metering, power quality and fault recording data.
Unique design
Can easily and cost-effectively address much needed upgrades to older substations where existing in-service electromechanical devices aren’t capable of providing necessary detail.
Digital Fault Recording and power quality capabilities
The BFM-ll delivers both an important update to substation feeders and a valuable upgrade in performance for applications designed by substation engineers.
Monitors distribution network protection system performance
Utilises multiphase waveform capture to immediately identify faults, failure of fault interrupting devices, incorrect tripping as well as to determine optimum tripping delay settings.
Multi-Tenant Submetering
With the inclusion of Digital Fault Recording and power quality capabilities, the BFM-ll delivers both an important update to substation feeders and a valuable upgrade in performance for applications designed by substation engineers. These enhanced capabilities have the ability to dynamically monitor system performance and improve overall reliability.
The addition of Digital Fault Recording functionality greatly enhances essential system detail necessary for the analysis of power disturbances and at a price point unheard of in the industry for this level of functionality. The DFR feature monitors distribution network protection system performance utilising multiphase waveform capture to immediately identify faults, failure of fault interrupting devices, incorrect tripping as well as to determine optimum tripping delay settings.
Installation requires no interruption of CT circuits or disruption of service and an entire substation can be upgraded in reasonable time.
