Portable partial discharge detector
(PD Detector PRO)

PD Detector™ Pro brings new innovation, ground-breaking functionality and advanced design to deliver a new generation in handheld PD Spot Testing.Building on market leading technology, the PD Detector Pro brings new features to ensure the most accurate testing of your HV assets.
The PD Detector Pro is an efficient and easy to use tool to detect PD in MV and HV assets. Compatible with a wide range of sensors, the PD Detector Pro can be used on multiple assets to easily identify and quantify Partial Discharge. The large colour touch screen makes analysis clear and simple and data storage with integrated software give a clear picture of asset health over time.
The PD Detector Pro features advanced noise rejection algorithms to effectively filter out background electrical noise, displaying both PD and Noise level for the user.
