Data records
- The manufacturer's page for the MPD 800 was read on the date given in the value. Value: 2026-10-27.
- OMICRON describes the MPD 800 as a partial discharge measurement and analysis system for laboratory, factory and on-site use. Value: partial discharge detector.
- Each MPD 800 unit provides two partial discharge input channels, and several units can be combined over a fiber optic bus for synchronous measurements on one asset.
- The MPD 800 applies noise reduction and gating methods to separate partial discharge from disturbances, and correlates events across channels for cable localization and source identification.
- The MPD 800 measures partial discharge on transformers, rotating machines, cables, switchgear and instrument transformers, with selectable filters for charge-based and radio influence voltage measurements.
- The MPD 800 records every pulse as raw data and replays it for analysis after the test, including data sets recorded with the MPD 600.
- The MPD 800 includes an automated self-check that verifies the condition of the unit after a flashover or breakdown.
- The MPD 800 is a product of OMICRON. Value: OMICRON.
- The manufacturer gives the model designation as MPD 800. Value: MPD 800.
- OMICRON maintains a product page for the MPD 800 on its own website, which is the page cited for this entry.
- The manufacturer states the measurement bandwidth and sampling rate of the MPD 800. Value: 5 kHz to 35 MHz at 125 MS/s.
- The manufacturer states the continuous operating time of the MPD 800 on one RBP1 rechargeable battery pack. Value: 14 h.
- The manufacturer states the number of fiber optic bus ports on the MPD 800. Value: 2 x FO ports (for redundancy and multi-unit support).
- The manufacturer states the fiber optic cable length supported by the MPD 800 and by its SiMo variant. Value: MPD 800: 2.5 km; MPD 800 SiMo: approx. 15 km to 40 km.
- The manufacturer states the input and output channels of one MPD 800 unit. Value: 2 PD channels, 1 OUT port, 2 AC channels, 1 optional trigger.
- The manufacturer states the number of MPD 800 units that can be combined in one system. Value: up to 20 units.
- The manufacturer states the partial discharge dynamic range of the MPD 800. Value: 140 dB.
- The manufacturer states the maximum partial discharge pulse rate of the MPD 800. Value: up to 4 million per second (2 million per second per FO bus).
- The manufacturer states the synchronization frequency range of the MPD 800. Value: DC, 0.01 Hz to 10 kHz.
- The product page names IEC 60270 in a video on performance checks of the MPD 800; the page gives no edition. Value: IEC 60270.
- The catalog name of the model is written OMICRON MPD 800. Value: OMICRON MPD 800.
