PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

Partial Break detectors are used to detect partial breaks in mining trailing cable conductors.

The cable under test is fed through a suitable cable hammer, which vibrates the cable during the feeding operation.

Conductor breaks will make partial contact during the vibration cycle and produce a signal.

This signal is detected, amplified and converted into an audible signal, which is fed to a headphone set, where it can be clearly heard by the operator.

Breaks as low as 10% can easily be detected through this method.
