Overview

The BURNMAKER-2 system is a universal kit for locating a damaged electric heating cable in underfloor heating systems. The kit consists of a “combined” unit and a flaw detector receiver. The “combined” block includes:

insulation resistance meter;
shaper of the conducting channel (“burning”);
generator for cable tracing;

The kit allows you to find all types of faults: cable breakage, short circuit of cable cores and lowering of the insulation resistance of the cable core relative to the screen. Works with heating cables of any diameter.

Features

Determination of the nature of the malfunction (cable break, short circuit and insulation lowering) by simultaneous measurement of three resistances: CORE1 ‑ CORE2, CORE1 ‑ SHIELD, CORE2-SHIELD.
Formation of a stable conductive channel at the point of failure using high voltage (up to 5600 V).
Three algorithms for the formation of a conductive high voltage channel for various types of heating cable.
Formation of a signal with a frequency of 2 kHz for tracing a cable by a receiver with a flaw detector.
Four levels of generator output in cable tracing mode.
The function of canceling external noise in the cable tracing mode.
Rotation of the receiver head in 3 planes.
