The evolution of protection, automation, and control testing systems demands increasingly flexible, precise, and integrated tools. With the growing use of digital real-time simulators—such as RTDS®, OPAL-RT®, and Typhoon HIL®—there is a critical need to amplify analog signals generated by these environments to levels compatible with real equipment, such as IEDs and protection relays.
With this in mind, Conprove has developed an efficient, robust solution fully aligned with the digitalization trend in testing: the Real-Time Simulator Amplifier, using the CE-LVA1 (Low Level Analog Adapter).
A Smart Solution for Hybrid Environments
The CE-LVA1 allows Conprove test sets to function as amplifiers for analog signals coming from digital simulators. This makes it possible to perform advanced tests using signals generated in real-time with total fidelity, integrating the physical and digital environments as precisely as possible.
This approach enables tests such as:
- Complete testing of IEDs and protection relays
- Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing
- Control logic validation
- Protection testing with dynamic scenarios
- Integration between digital simulation and real equipment response
Compatibility with Market-Leading Simulators
The CE-LVA1 transforms Conprove test sets into amplifiers capable of working directly with the world’s most used simulators:
- RTDS® (Real Time Digital Simulator)
- OPAL-RT®
- Typhoon HIL®
This interoperability ensures that engineers can build realistic, stable, and variable scenarios, exploring the full potential of simulators with real-world results.
Physical Versatility: Rack or Portable
Conprove equipment stands out not only for technical performance but also for physical flexibility. They can be deployed according to different environments and needs:
- Rack installation, ideal for laboratories, research centers, and universities.
- Portable configuration, allowing safe transport and use in the field or at other facilities.
This mobility facilitates commissioning, audits, diagnostics, and validations across different locations without performance loss.
Why is this solution important?
The integration between digital simulators and real equipment is increasingly essential to:
- Validate complex protection algorithms
- Analyze dynamic behaviors of power systems
- Safely reproduce rare or critical scenarios
- Prepare teams for modern and digital systems
- Ensure compliance in high-demand tests
The CE-LVA1 extends the reach of simulators and brings the necessary realism for complete and reliable testing.
