High-accuracy amplifier and measuring units
With high-accuracy amplifiers, a wide range of measurement inputs and, last but not least, simple handling and operation, ARTES 460 is the ideal solution for professional 3-phase relay testing.
All amplifier outputs can be set separately and independently of one another as regards phase, amplitude and frequency and are equipped with overload and short-circuit protection. The range of the 4 voltage amplifiers can be switched from 300 V to 150 V for low-voltage, high-power applications.
The current amplifiers provide a maximum test current of 6 x 16 A. Parallel operation of the current outputs allows output of up to 3 x 32 A for 3-phase applications.

Operation in an upright position
All connections and interfaces are located on the front panel. This means that ARTES 460 can be operated in an upright position if there is not enough space or if no table is available.

LEDs for status indication
LEDs on the front panel indicate the states and operating modes of the inputs and outputs. The user can tell at a glance which outputs are active and can easily identify the states of the binary inputs and outputs.

Integrated TJCP operator interface
The internal TJCP operator interface is a special feature. Its high-resolution 3.5“ touch screen with smart touch technology enables many tests to be carried out quickly and easily without having to connect an external PC. The clear user interface guides the user intuitively through to complete the task in hand.
User actions carried out with the ergonomic jog wheel, such as amplitude, phase angle or frequency adjustments, are processed in real time and executed without delay.
An illuminated ring integrated in the jog wheel and additional acoustic signals indicate system status during settings and tests.
