Listed below are some of the Frequently Asked Questions we receive for Callistonx. Please contact us if you need more information.
Q: What EMC and Type Testing standards does the product conform to?
A: Please provide us with your details and we will send them to you.
Q: Can you provide me with information giving details of the Callistonx cassettes/modules power consumption?
A: Yes – please provide us with your details and we will send them to you.
Q: What is the burden of the AC Cassettes when measuring a CT or a VT?
A: CT – the burden of our current cassette varies depending on which range is being used. At full load the burden is 140uW for the 1 amp range and 875uW for the 5 amp range. VT – each leg of the voltage measuring cassette offers an impedance of approximately 950K ohm to system 0V (usually neutral).
The Callistonx is cost-effective RTU with a range of features and options. Callistonx is compliant to IEC 61850 with 0.1% measurement accuracy for AC measurements, disturbance and event recording and has a wealth of protection functions.
Two independent processors ensure consistent high performance with a powerful DSP dedicated to time-critical AC and protection functionality, with a separate ARM9 processor managing higher level applications and communications. SOE time-stamping to 1ms is standard and the optional integrated GPS, which provides both time and position, ensures consistency across geographically remote installations. Communications can be either via the built-in Ethernet port or over traditional serial channels wit ha host of international standard protocols available for both mechanisms: IEC 61850, DNP3, IEC 60870-5 and Modbus.
Callistonx is a high performing remote terminal unit, with easy-to-use configuration tools, an industry standard IEC 61131-3 logic application and secure web browser technology. These software tools, along with a high contrast LCD, ensure efficient deployment and ongoing ease of maintenance through common product knowledge to support installations from EHV through to LV networks.
