PTS-4
- Provides a means of testing the magnetic tripping actuator as well as the static trip device.
- The PTS-4 uses a variable voltage AC supply to inject a current into the circuit breaker. The current is then measured to determine the tripping time of the circuit breaker.
- The PTS-4 can also be used to test the DC tripping function of the circuit breaker.
- The PTS-4 is a reliable and accurate tool for testing low voltage circuit breakers. It is easy to use and portable, making it ideal for field testing.
Trip Units:
The Siemens PTS-4 test kit is used to test the following types of trip units:
- Static overcurrent trip units (SOTs) used on Siemens LA and RL low voltage power circuit breakers
- Magnetic tripping actuators
Features:
- Variable voltage AC supply: The PTS-4 uses a variable voltage AC supply to inject a current into the circuit breaker. This allows the user to select the correct voltage for the circuit breaker being tested.
- Current measurement: The PTS-4 measures the current flowing through the circuit breaker during the test. This allows the user to determine the tripping time of the circuit breaker.
- DC tripping function: The PTS-4 can also be used to test the DC tripping function of the circuit breaker. This is important for circuit breakers that are used in DC applications.
- Portable: The PTS-4 is portable, making it ideal for field testing. It can be easily transported to the location of the circuit breaker being tested.
- Easy to use: The PTS-4 is easy to use. The user simply selects the correct voltage and current settings, and then connects the PTS-4 to the circuit breaker. The PTS-4 will then automatically perform the test and display the results.
