The Vanguard WRM-40 Winding Resistance Ohmmeter is designed to accurately measure the winding resistance of highly inductive power transformers. The unit’s dual resistance-reading input channels can measure two winding resistances simultaneously, and four-wire (Kelvin) connections provide high accuracy and require no lead compensation. The WRM-40 provides stable resistance readings of very large transformers by utilizing a 36Vdc power supply capable of outputting up to 40 Amperes. The resistance reading of a 500MVA transformer can be achieved in 5 minutes or less. The unit’s power supply is cooled by four heavy-duty fans designed for continuous operation. For greater flexibility in the field, the WRM-40 comes with a built-in 2.5-inch wide thermal printer used for printing test reports.
