machine windings/ Traces earth faults on thermocouples/Traces and locates multiple

faults on systems/Locates Earth faults on live DC circuits/ Does not effect system

integrity/ Unaffected by load current or ripple/ Can be tuned to the fault current only

For more technical details send in request using contact form.

Who are the manufacturers of Grouser ?

GFAL Limited

Time schedule for supply of equipment ?

Minimum of 180 days from the date of placing written confirmed order (Check for

actual delivery schedules

Manufacturers product guarantee for workmanship and performance 12 months from

the date of manufacture and supply – Float Power Systems & Controls offer additional

180 days extended warranty and other benefits (Sure buy customers can seek details

using contact form)

What is the maximum fault which the instrument can detect ?

Sensitive to faults as high as 68k ohm

How is the fault traced ?

By using the sensing probe attached to the receiver in synchronization with the

Transmitter ( Seek for live on-line demonstration)

What are the problems which has been over come during the course of the

development of the product ?

Grouser will not interfere with sensitive equipment connected to the DC system and is

unaffected by ripple, or switching transients/ Grouser has overcome problems such as

spillover, inductive coupling, interference, capacitive coupling, spurious noise, etc.

What is the Principle of the Grouser ?

The principle of operation is straight forward inject small current at a specific

frequency, trace only the current flow at that specific frequency, where the current

flows to earth is where the fault or faults are.

Are the sensing heads available in one size or in different sizes ?

Four different sizes are available from 6mm, 30mm and 45mm, these are supplied as standard. A 55mm and 95mmhead are available as an optional extra.

What are the Frequencies at which the Grouser operates?

Transmitter

Battery powered transmitter outputs 9 volt RMS open circuit, 50mA short circuit. The

output frequency is pre-set at between 11.0 Hz and 12.0 Hz and factory matched to

the receiver frequency.

The unit can operate on live circuits up to 300 volt DC, it is fuse protected and has

semi rotary controls to prevent accidental operation.

Receiver

The frequency range is factory set between 11.2 and 11.8 Hz, this low, very precise

frequency enables the Grouser to operate with a clean signal even in “noisy”

conditions. There is also a 10 turn capacitive balance control that enables the

operator to cancel out capacitive signals and view the fault signal independent of

other factors.

What is Grumbler Instrument used for ?

Grumbler for LIVE LV/MV Cable Identifier The instrument is designed to assist users

in the identification of cables

Will Float Power Systems & Controls be able to import any equipment ?

Yes,any equipment , testing and measuring instruments as applicable to the Power

Sector and Telecommunication sector, and such equipments where the customer

places a specific request while providing the technical specification of the required

product

What are the other products that Float Power Systems & Controls would be able to

supply ?

Refer Product Line .

Some details with reference to Analyzer Unit / Tracking Unit?

Ground faults on battery operate DC Multi feeder Distribution System are very difficult

to find without proper instrumentation and training.
