The FC 5000 is for live cable identification of up to 440V AC. This device provides safe identification of low voltage live insulated cable before a live connection operation or before de-energised operation (peak and cut). It also provides core (phase) identification on three-phase voltage system. Its specific modulator draws a coded current that can be only detected between the modulator connection point and the power source (HV / LV transformer).
Detection is available on high-loaded cables.
It can be used to find the right cable among other low or high voltage cables in a trench or a duct. The device can be used to find the phase to make a connection, and the phase of any customer. The FC 5000 has a voltage range of 180V - 440V and a frequency of 50Hz and 60Hz.
The modulator comes in a yellow shock-proof all weather case containing modulator and carrying accessories. The modulator features 3 phases or phase and neutral supply for cable identification and 3 phases for core (phase) identification. Other features include - 800V protection, weighs 9kg, low current connectors, an average current of 4A, a peak current of 18A at a max of 400V, a 1kHz signal, a transmission of signal on live cables, a built-in ÔAllcheck' to simulate cable and phase identification and a maximum internal temperature of 72¡C.
