COMPLETE CONTROL

The MENTOR 12 is the most advanced three-phase relay test set available

for type and field testing of electromechanical and digital protections of any

kind, in traditional or IEC-61850 based substations, providing the most

complete and straightforward Manual Control of the market.

The optimized Basic Control Panel refers to the control of the equipment in

Manual Mode for total control over all its functions:

- Power source controls: Current source/ Voltage source, Amplitude, phase

angle, low level outputs, harmonic content, channel selection, on/off

activation, channel combination, frequency control (2 Frequency Buses).

- Measurement display: multifunction timer, countdown timer, analogue

input measurement, binar y input pulse counter and frequency

measurement.

- Function keys: channel selection, memory and Dynamic fault shortcuts.

- Battery simulator: Auxiliary DC supply setting for relay powering.

- I/O states: monitoring of power sources, binary inputs, binary outputs

activation/status.

- On-screen access to Alarms reports.

- Output Power trimmer: Energy saving system with auto-adjustment to load

and regulation of working cycle.

- Fine/coarse tuning.

- Real-time representation of power vectors.

- Timer operation/trip setup and preferences, binary I/O setting.

- Event Logger, with event description and time of the event. Automatic

recording for all events, such as sources switching and I/O states.

- External measurement configuration, for testing of transducers, energy

meters and sensors.

- Hardware configuration and maintenance, with internet upgrading

capacity.

- Remote control activation/setup.

- Results Manager, and storage of results.

- STT: Importing RIO files and ROOTS test, execution of tests with no

need of PC, just a USB pendrive.

- Advanced built-in Test Functions: Fault, Ramp, Double Ramps, Pulse

Ramps, Binary Search, State Sequencer, Fault Playback.

The MENTOR 12’s standard equipment build up one of the most advanced

basic configurations available on the market for quick, simple and easy testing,

for both commissioning and maintenance, without the need of any PC.

MODULARITY

One of the biggest advantages of the MENTOR 12 is the "plug & play"

modularity. New amplifiers connected by the user are automatically

recognized and added to all the test and configuration screens by the

MENTOR 12, with no software adjustment. User can start with a basic 6-

channel unit –or even lower- and add more channels later on. The plug and

play technology makes adding or replacing channels an easy operation, with

no need to return the unit to the factory. It allows to have spare amplifiers,

to be inserted in MENTOR 12 equipment with smaller channel configurations,

or exchanged among units, providing at the same time a lower maintenance

cost. Regarding replacement modules, contact us for more details on our

unique Mentor Express Service.

The outstanding number of power outputs available in the Mentor 12 allow

for endless combinations, which along with the serial or parallel connection

of the output channels, extends the application field of the test set even to

great power demanding electromechanical type relays.

Mentor works on a Windows® CE platform which is configured to preserve

the applications and data against the typical maintenance and security

problems of personal computers, avoiding its disadvantages, but also

keeping the unit up to date, with automatic and safe internet upgrading.
