Product Description

The AEMC DTR® Model 8511 Digital Transformer Ratiometer is a fully automatic, field-ready instrument designed for precise turns-ratio testing of power transformers, voltage/potential transformers (VT/PT), and current transformers (CT). It modernizes the trusted DTR® 8510 with higher test power, improved diagnostics, and enhanced usability.

Transformer Turns Ratiometer Testing Features

  • Wide ratio measurement range: Up to 8000:1 in VT/PT mode, up to 1000:1 in CT mode
  • High excitation current up to 2 A with optimized 64 Hz test frequency
  • Fully automatic operation—no calibration, balancing, or range selection required
  • Displays turns ratio, excitation current, polarity, and % deviation from nameplate
  • Built-in continuity testing to detect open windings
  • Automatic checks for lead reversal and wiring errors
  • Stores up to 9,801 test results internally

Transformer Test Data Management & PC Connectivity

  • Includes DataView® software for configuration, data retrieval, analysis, and report generation
  • Isolated USB connectivity for safe PC communication
  • Real-time comparison against stored nameplate values for pass/fail confirmation

Transformer Acceptance, Commissioning & Maintenance Applications

  • Transformer acceptance and commissioning tests
  • Routine maintenance of power, pad-mount, and pole-mount transformers
  • CT and VT/PT ratio verification
  • Switchgear and control power transformer testing
  • Quality control in transformer manufacturing and rewinding
