Doepke 09352050 DOEP converter set DRCA1 set,

Due to the increasing use of type B RCDs to protect systems with power electronics equipment (e.g. frequency converters), these RCDs are also being triggered more frequently without the conventional testing methods being able to detect a fault in the system. The cause of such false triggering is usually differential currents in the form of capacitive leakage currents with frequencies that deviate from the mains frequency and that flow to earth via real or parasitic capacitances (e.g. EMC capacitors or line capacitances). Depending on the type of electronic equipment, leakage currents can have very different frequency mixtures. Since these differential currents also cause a contact voltage at the earthing resistance of the electrical system, they must be detected by an RCD and trigger a trip. Measuring systems in this class enable the analysis of differential currents and differential current mixtures whose frequency deviates from the mains frequency. In most cases, the analysis results allow conclusions to be drawn about the causes of the leakage current and thus provide information about measures to reduce it so that a type B RCD can be used without any problems. Measuring devices in the DRCA series offer complex analysis tools for determining the origin of residual currents and selecting suitable RCDs. The set consists of the following components: 1. DRCA 1 measuring unit: The DRCA 1 measuring unit analyses the measured values and prepares them for further processing on the PC, which is connected to the measuring unit via a standard USB port. 2. DRCA 1-MC measuring line: The DRCA 1-MC measuring line ensures that the measured values are transmitted to the measuring unit without distortion. 3. DRCA 1-CT70 measuring through-current transformer: The residual current transformer includes all active conductors leading to the consumers and its output signal shows the temporal progression of the sum of all conductor currents flowing through it. Its output signal is proportional to the differential current (fault current) that flows back to the earthing point of the supply network via the protective conductor or the earth in the event of an insulation fault. The level of the differential current is evaluated from this signal by the measuring unit of the analysis system and forwarded to the connected PC for display. 4. Analysis software DRCA 1-SW: The analysis software DRCA 1-SW provides a variety of functions for displaying and evaluating the measured values.
