1 00:00:18,516 --> 00:00:28,125 Comparative Analysis of AMT105, AMT205, AMT103, and AMT203 Devices 2 00:00:28,516 --> 00:00:35,626 In this video, we’ll carry out a comparative analysis of the hardware features of several models from Vebco’s product line 3 00:00:35,781 --> 00:00:36,781 Voltage Sources 4 00:00:37,031 --> 00:00:42,265 Starting with the AMT105, this device is equipped with two voltage groups 5 00:00:42,656 --> 00:00:51,484 one three-phase group rated at 150 volts, and one single-phase group also rated at 150 volts. 6 00:00:51,797 --> 00:00:59,687 In total, it provides four 150-volt sources, each capable of delivering up to 500 milliamps per phase 7 00:00:59,844 --> 00:01:08,515 The minimum sampling rate for measuring real-time values in this device is 1.2 milliseconds. 8 00:01:08,906 --> 00:01:16,875 This applies both to the applied voltage and the drawn current, ensuring accurate and timely data acquisition. 9 00:01:17,266 --> 00:01:27,343 Additionally, the AMT105 includes an independent DC voltage source with a maximum output of 212 volts. 10 00:01:27,734 --> 00:01:36,328 This DC source operates separately from the other voltage outputs, allowing for greater flexibility in various testing scenarios. 11 00:01:37,188 --> 00:01:44,922 In contrast, the AMT205 device offers two groups of three-phase 300-volt voltage outputs 12 00:01:45,078 --> 00:01:56,015 each with a maximum amplitude of 1.2 amperes. The sampling rate for measuring actual values is at least 25 microseconds 13 00:01:56,328 --> 00:02:03,203 which applies to both the supplied voltage and the drawn current. These voltage sources 14 00:02:03,553 --> 00:02:14,881 can be converted into 1.2-ampere current sources, capable of providing up to 300 volts of electrical potential for current injection 15 00:02:15,115 --> 00:02:25,193 This feature enables the device to inject extremely small currents — as low as 20 microamperes — with high precision 16 00:02:25,506 --> 00:02:31,990 The device does not include a separate DC source, so if a DC source is required 17 00:02:32,459 --> 00:02:36,286 , the user must dedicate one of the six available phases to that purpose. 18 00:02:36,521 --> 00:02:38,787 Current Sources 19 00:02:39,178 --> 00:02:44,646 The AMT105 device includes two groups of 32-ampere current outputs 20 00:02:44,881 --> 00:02:54,568 each capable of supplying 12 volts per phase. The sampling rate for measuring the actual values from these sources is at least 1.2 milliseconds, 21 00:02:54,803 --> 00:02:57,927 and it is used to monitor the drawn current. 22 00:02:58,162 --> 00:03:04,724 In contrast, the AMT205 device includes two groups of 32-ampere current outputs 23 00:03:05,271 --> 00:03:12,536 each capable of supplying 22 volts per phase. The sampling rate for measuring actual values 24 00:03:12,771 --> 00:03:22,068 values from these sources is at least 25 microseconds, and is used to monitor both the injected current and the voltage supplied by the device 25 00:03:22,615 --> 00:03:31,286 These current sources can be converted into 22-volt voltage sources with a maximum current of 32 amperes. 26 00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:40,193 This feature allows the device to apply very small voltages — as low as 40 microvolts — with high precision. 27 00:03:40,506 --> 00:03:47,849 The Neutrik port on the AMT105 device provides three-phase voltage and three-phase current outputs 28 00:03:48,083 --> 00:03:53,083 for use in impedance and directional testing. It can also 29 00:03:53,474 --> 00:03:58,318 be reconfigured into six current phases for differential testing. 30 00:03:58,474 --> 00:04:05,505 However, on the AMT205 device, the Neutrik port provides only three-phase voltage 31 00:04:05,818 --> 00:04:12,693 and three-phase current outputs for impedance and directional testing, and does not support reconfiguration. 32 00:04:13,021 --> 00:04:21,224 The AMT105 device includes eight binary/analog inputs, which can operate in either DRY (binary) mode 33 00:04:21,459 --> 00:04:32,552 or WET (analog) mode. In analog mode, the device supports three input voltage ranges: 4.5 volts, 30 volts, and 188 volts. 34 00:04:34,349 --> 00:04:40,130 The sampling rate for measuring values can be selected starting from 400 microseconds 35 00:04:40,443 --> 00:04:47,083 and higher. Naturally, as the measurement range increases, the accuracy tends to decrease. 36 00:04:47,631 --> 00:04:56,380 The AMT205 device also features eight binary inputs, which can operate in both DRY (binary) and WET (analog)modes 37 00:04:57,318 --> 00:05:02,943 . However, unlike the AMT105, in addition to the 4.5-volt 38 00:05:03,099 --> 00:05:09,661 30-volt, and 188-volt ranges, it also includes a 500-volt range. 39 00:05:09,974 --> 00:05:16,224 The sampling rate for measuring values can be selected from 12.5 microseconds and above. 40 00:05:16,537 --> 00:05:22,708 As expected, when the measurement range increases, the accuracy of the measurement tends to decrease 41 00:05:27,787 --> 00:05:38,177 The AMT105 device includes two AC/DC analog inputs: one dedicated solely to current measurement, with a maximum range of 750 milliamperes, 42 00:05:38,568 --> 00:05:45,911 and the other dedicated to voltage measurement, with a maximum range of 400 millivolts. 43 00:05:46,381 --> 00:05:52,240 The sampling rate for measuring values can be selected from 400 microseconds and above. 44 00:05:52,709 --> 00:05:59,974 The AMT205 device also includes two AC/DC analog inputs, but with extended capabilities 45 00:06:00,287 --> 00:06:07,239 For current measurement, it offers four selectable ranges: 250 microamperes, 39 milliamperes 46 00:06:07,474 --> 00:06:12,240 , 750 milliamperes, and 10 amperes 47 00:06:12,786 --> 00:06:16,614 . For voltage measurement, it provides four ranges as well 48 00:06:17,162 --> 00:06:23,255 10 millivolts, 50 millivolts, 120 millivolts, and 400 millivolts. 49 00:06:23,490 --> 00:06:30,052 The sampling rate for measuring values can be selected from 12.5 microseconds and above. 50 00:06:30,521 --> 00:06:36,302 These inputs offer higher precision, especially when measuring smaller signals. 51 00:06:37,865 --> 00:06:43,333 The AMT105 device features four binary outputs with relay switches 52 00:06:43,724 --> 00:06:47,708 , where neither the switch type nor current measurement can be changed. 53 00:06:48,178 --> 00:06:53,802 In contrast, the AMT205 device also includes four binary outputs 54 00:06:54,037 --> 00:07:03,646 , but with the option to select between transistor-types and relay-type switches. The relay type offers higher current capacity 55 00:07:04,427 --> 00:07:13,880 but has a slower switching speed, while the transistor type provides very high switching speed but can handle lower current levels 56 00:07:15,756 --> 00:07:20,677 A key advantage of the AMT205 is that its binary outputs 57 00:07:20,755 --> 00:07:25,364 can measure current, a capability not available in the AMT105. 58 00:07:32,631 --> 00:07:45,443 The AMT205 device can be connected to a laptop via both LAN and Wi-Fi. Thanks to its support for IEC 61850 testing 59 00:07:45,834 --> 00:07:54,740 the device is equipped with three LAN ports, which can be used to create a ring connection between the device and two other IED systems. 60 00:07:55,053 --> 00:08:01,225 The AMT105 device also supports connection via LAN and Wi-Fi, but it does not support 61 00:08:01,693 --> 00:08:07,396 IEC 61850 testing and includes only one LAN port. 62 00:08:10,131 --> 00:08:16,224 The AMT103 device shares the same technical specifications as the AMT105 63 00:08:16,693 --> 00:08:22,474 , with a few key differences: it includes four 150-volt voltage sources 64 00:08:22,883 --> 00:08:28,976 and three 32-ampere current sources, and it does not have an independent DC source. 65 00:08:29,211 --> 00:08:34,289 The number of binary/analog inputs has been reduced from 8 to 4 66 00:08:34,523 --> 00:08:42,257 , and on the Neutrik port, the number of voltage and current sources is fixed at three voltage outputs and three current outputs. 67 00:08:42,648 --> 00:08:49,054 The AMT203 device shares the same technical specifications as the AMT205 68 00:08:49,367 --> 00:08:54,445 with a few key differences: it includes four 300-volt voltage sources 69 00:08:54,680 --> 00:09:00,929 and three 32-ampere current sources. Additionally, the number of binary/analog inputs 70 00:09:01,164 --> 00:09:03,820 has been reduced from 8 to 4.
