The CMC 353 is a computer-controlled test set for the testing of:
• protection relays
• transducers
• energy meters
• PQ (power quality) analyzers.
In addition to the test functions, optional high-performance measurement
functions [0 Hz (DC) ... 10 kHz] for ten analog inputs are available.
The CMC 353 is part of the OMICRON Test Universe which, in addition to
the physical test set, consists of a test software for a computer with
Windows
1
operating system, and, when needed, external voltage and/or
current amplifiers, GPS or IRIG-B synchronization units or other
accessories.
Any other use of the CMC 353 is considered improper and may result in
damage to property or persons.
Features of the CMC 353:
• Output of test quantities:
-4 × voltage
- 3 x current
• Capability of protection testing with IEC 61850 devices.
• Control of external amplifiers (up to 12 additional test signals) through
the low-level interface.
• Supply of DC voltages to the test object.
• Output of binary signals.
• Capture of binary signals and counter impulses.
