I have gotten to the point in my new business where I could really use a three phase test set. I don't typically do acceptance type protective relay testing, but lately am doing a lot of transducer and controller calibrations, and frankly the rental units I've been getting have not been very reliable.
I have excellent previous experience with Omicron's CMC156, but appears to have been replaced and before I plunk down some $20k USD of my money I'd like to see what other options the group may be aware of in a capability to the 156. The new Omicron offering near what I'm looking for is the CMC353, anone have any experience with that unit?
I've gotten some info from ISA on both the BER/3 and the DRTS, but have never used either and don't know anyone with any experience with them. How do they compare to the hardware wise to the CMC156?
I've tried to get info from SMS multiple times from their website, but no response, anyone have any experience with the two piece three phase test system?
I have also asked for info from both Kingsine (their k68i) and Ponovo (their S40A), neither has a demo in the USA and can't find anyone who knows either one, anyone with experience, good or bad out there?
Ideally I would love to find a good used CMC156, however it seems like no one has any, and that anyone who does have one holds on to it. If anyone knows a possible source I'd appreciate hearing about it.
Any info would be appreciated, thanks.
