KatCon make High Frequency Inline Induction
Preheaters are designed to meet the needs of continuous
production systems. They are used in extrusion lines
for insulating wire conductors to improve the adhesion
of insulation material on the conductor. It ensures
an even flow of insulating as the temperature of the
conductor remains constant throughout the run.
The Preheater operates as a completely
independent standalone unit. It works on a principle
of Induction heating.
Preheater are featuring dynamic and
free running pulleys of shorting (conductive) and insulating
(with Ceramic Rings) type. An alternating electromagnetic
field is applied from a solid state electronic power
controller with accurate and continuous line speed feedback.
It provides correct secondary voltage as per desired
settings and in turn, a correct preheating temperature.
The wire or conductor to be heated, passes through the
induction coils between shorting and insulating pulleys.

Spark
Testers |
|
| |
KatCon make Spark Testers are designed for
testing the insulation or sheathing of the cable during extrusion,
winding processes. The unit is capable of performing non destructive
integrity testing on all types of insulated cables detecting
pinholes, cuts, slits, bare patches, etc. in cable insulation.
The spark tester consists of a high voltage
electrode unit with high voltage transformer and an electronic
control unit which has a highly reliable solid state structure
and requires minimal maintenance.
Ball chain assembly used in H.B. Electrode
Unit which is in contact with the surface of the cable under
test and combines with the resulting corona in H.F. Spark
testers to form an extremely effective contact zone around
the cable insulation.
This unique feature ensures that the actual
voltage displayed on kV meter is applied accurately and consistently
to the cable surface even if the bead chain do not touch the
cable from all sides. A preadjusted and extremely sensitive
fault detection circuit detects all the faults in the cable
insulation at proper voltage setting. These spark tester are
able to detect all the faults which are detected in water
immersion testing of cables.
The interlock with the electrode unit cover
protects the operator from accidental contact with the electrode.

This instrument is used to conduct the high
voltage test on electric cables. It is necessary that a evaluation
of the condition of the insulation, be made by imposing a
higher voltage stress for a specified duration.
This test can be performed in water bath
& at ambient temperature, depending on the application
of cable.
This is a table top instrument with all settings,
indication & controls on the front.
