RIF‑9

Digital impulse reflectometer

117 550.big

Time-Domain Reflectometer RIF-9 is designed for determining the distance to a fault in communication and power cables.

Digital impulse reflectometer RIF-9 allows:

  • Determining the distance to a fault or discontinuity in symmetric and asymmetric cables using a location (time domain reflection) method;
  • Measuring the length of a cable (including those wound on a drum) or distance to a fault or a short circuit;
  • Storing and processing the results of measurements;
  • As part of a cable test van, determining the distance to a fault or discontinuity in cables with length of up to 100 km for all possible fault types without the need of preliminary full cable sheath burning.
