Congratulations to your choice of FRAX Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer by Megger. We

at Megger have done our best and will continue do our best to satisfy our customers. Please

visit our home page at www.paxdiagnostics.com and do not hesitate to contact us directly.

Most dielectric and mechanical failures in large power transformers are preceded by

mechanical changes in the winding structure. These displacements in the winding structure

may be the result of transportation damage, short circuit forces, or natural aging effects on

the insulating structures used to support the windings. Detection of these displacements

before dielectric failure reduces maintenance costs, and improves system reliability.

FRAX Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer (SFRA) is designed to detect winding

displacements in power transformers or faults in the magnetic core. The system provides

attenuation signature curves that can easily be compared for deviations which indicate:

Core movements

Winding deformations and displacements

Faulty core grounds

Partial winding collapse

Hoop buckling

Broken or loosened clamping structures

Shorted turns and open windings

Unique features of FRAX:

High accuracy

Small size and low weight

Powerful analysis tools that are intuitive and easy to use

Wireless, Bluetooth, communication between laptop an instruments allows flexibility in the

field (FRAX-101 only)

Galvanic isolated USB interface for personnel and equipment safety

1.1 Safety First

FRAX is a Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer designed for measuring of power transformers

in the field and at manufacturing sites.

Always follow local safety regulations.

Make certain that all personnel working with FRAX instrument have been trained in its use

and that all applicable safety precautions are taken.

Always connect the instrument to protective earth/ground using the separate earth/ground

cable. The earth/ground cable should be the first connection made and the last removed.

Do not use any accessories that are not intended for use together with the FRAX.

Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
