The Megger Ferrolux Rx audio frequency receiver with an IFS tracing sensor can locate lines and cable faults with a high level of precision as it combines several functions in one device. These include the SuperMax and SignalSelect (signal flow direction identification) locating functions, plus tried-and-tested audio frequency functions. This makes the Ferrolux Rx a highly precise receiver that can deliver clear results in areas with lines that are routed closely together.
Longer tasks are made easy as the device weighs very little and provides a systematic and intuitive display of the measurement results. Combined with the audio frequency generators in the Ferrolux FLG series, even joints and cable faults (e.g., short circuits in wires) can be located with precision. The Ferrolux Rx is available for purchase with or without a Ferrolux FLG12 Audio Frequency Generator.
SignalSelect
The proven SignalSelect method for detecting the direction of the signal flow in a cable makes determining the route of one line significantly more efficient and safer. This method is particularly useful in areas with systems that are routed closely together. Ferrolux generators in the FLG series (e.g. the new FLG 12 audio frequency generator) generate a specifically coded audio frequency signal that is applied either directly or inductively. The Ferrolux® Rx receiving system selects this signal when the device is positioned above the target line and determines the direction of the signal flow.
- Signal flow from generator to far end
- Signal flow from generator to far end
- Functions irrespective of cable length
- For any type of line (cable, pipe)
- Direct or inductive signal coupling
- Display of signal quality for additional safety
Ferrolux® Rx also automatically determines the quality of the SignalSelect signal and, for example, can warn if there are parallel lines in a higher position.
