HCTS Series

[Cable Heat Cycle Test System]

The HCTS Series Cable Heat Cycle Test System is designed to raise and control the temperature of conductor or other low impedance electrical loop to simulate the current loading conditions found in the electrical circuits up to 10000A.

The HCTS Series Cable Heat Cycle Test System is mainly used to heat the cable sample conductor cores, the heating temperature can reach to 150℃. Its working principle is to use the open-type wear heart transformer, make the cable test object to be the secondary coil of the transformer, then depends the short-circuit high-current caused by test object itself to get the required  temperature from the conductor cores. You can control the current go though the conductor cores to control test temperature of the control cable or other low impedance conductor. Measurement of the loop temperature is made by direct contact of a K-type thermocouple probe with conductor of the test loop.

Our system include the low voltage analogue loop and high voltage test loop. The low voltage analogue test system utilizes one loop of conductor passing through the desired a number of open-type wear heart transformer to reach the necessary current rating according to the temperature setting. For the high voltage test system also utilizes one loop of conductor passing through the desired a number of open-type wear heart transformer to reach the necessary current rating, and current is following the low voltage analogue loop current.  In the same time, the high voltage test cable also need to apply withstand the AC high voltage according the IEC standards.
