ULS-PZ Linear matching device – tunable with grounding knife



Device description

A linear matching device - tunable with a grounding knife "ULS-PZ" together with coupling capacitors or capacitive voltage transformers is a circuit of a transformer band-pass filter (PF) or a high-pass filter (HPF), which ensures matching of the wave impedance, high-frequency subscriber equipment and the RF channel communication, formed by high-voltage wires, cables, ground wires in the nominal frequency band.

"ULS-PZ" is designed to work on power lines with voltage from 24 to 750 kV and lightning protection cables.

The main feature of "ULS-PZ" is the possibility of its restructuring at the facility when changing the capacity of the connection or the operating frequency range.

"ULS-PZ" is capable of solving problems that are currently being solved by connection filters "LMU5000" (Areva T&D, France), BLM (TesmecS.p.A, Italy), UAPA-1 (ZIV, Spain), MCD80 (ABB Ltd., Germany), SCA/SGA (SeltaS.p.A., Italy) and others for a similar purpose. It is manufactured on a modern technical basis, taking into account development trends and the needs of the energy industry. Transformers are made on modern high-quality ferrite cores.

ULS-PZ is equipped with a single-pole disconnector that acts as a grounding knife. The grounding knife on the ULS-PZ can withstand a current of 300 A.

ULS-PZ are designed for RF signal power of at least 200 W.
