Micro-Ohmmeters
-
Contact resistance measurement is one of the most important and common tests during switchgear manufacturing, commissioning and maintenance stages. Besides switchgear testing, the RMO digital micro-ohmmeters are designed for simple, safe and efficient testing of:disconnecting switches,high-current bus bar joints,cable splices,welding joints,and different high-current links in factory and high-induction field environments.All DV Power RMO micro-ohmmeters use Kelvin’s 4-point measurement principle which is the most convenient for very small resistance measurements. The measurements are accurate and in accordance with international standards for AC high-voltage circuit breakers testing (IEEE C37.09 and IEC 62271-100).Starting from 2003, DV Power has been a trend-setter on the market when our first 500 A micro-ohmmeter weighing only 8 kg (RMO500A / CPM500) was released.Currently, DV Power products portfolio includes 16 models, divided into 3 series:13 portable models: RMO-A (6) and RMO-G (7) series.6 handheld models: RMO-H (6) seriesThe instruments generate a user-selectable and ripple-free test current up to 800 A in an automatically regulated test ramp. Test current ramping significantly decreases the influence of the magnetic transients to measurement.

Relay Matrix Module
4x71, 2 A, Electromechanical Relay Matrix Module for SwitchBlock - The SWB‑2833 is an electromechanical relay matrix card for SwitchBlock systems. Designed for high power, it can operate as an individual relay card or expand in a single carrier or single PXI chassis. You can connect any input to any output, individually or in combination. You can use matrix switches to route signals from oscilloscopes, DMMs, arbitrary waveform generators, and power supplies to various test points on a unit under test (UUT). The primary benefit of matrix switches is simplified wiring—the overall test system can easily and dynamically change the internal connection path without any external manual intervention.

Precision RTD Simulator
RTD Series
-
The RTD Series Precision RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) Simulator provides a very broad-range of absolute resistance values that replace RTD's and thermocouples. Thermocouples present a resistance that depends on the temperature. The RTD simulator effectively replaces an RTD to test, analyze, and calibrate RTD measuring systems. The RTD Series simulator is a precision resistance source with excellent characteristics of accuracy, stability, temperature coefcient, and power coefcient. All these features serve to make it a laboratory resistance standard, exceeded in performance only by stand-alone standard resistors. The special design of the RTD Series provides absolute accuracy, and requires no zero resistance subtraction from any setting Special design of the RTD virtually eliminate zero resistance and switch contact variations, providing the specified absolute accuracy over the entire range.
