Unfortunately, we have been unable to obtain further supplies of some of the parts required to manufacture our main product the TDR200 Rotor RSO Reflectometer and we can no longer supply this equipment
As this has been our main product, we have reluctantly decided to close Rowtest Ltd. for further business.
We shall continue to offer technical support to existing users of this equipment via an associate company and will maintain this website for the forseeable future, so if you require technical support please contact us at enquiries@rowtest.com.

ROTOR WINDING TESTING MADE
EASY
|
We specialise in the design, manufacture and supply of Test Equipment for detecting and locating faults in the field windings of large
cylindrical turbo-alternator rotors.
Our 2 main products are the TDR200 Rotor RSO Relectometer and the RFM 200 Rotor Magnetic
Flux Probe Monitor. The RSO test is carried out on generators which are isolated and off-load, while the Flux Probe test is performed
with the generator running and on-load.
The TDR200 Rotor Reflectometer
The TDR200 Rotor Reflectometer,
uses the RSO (Recurrent Surge Oscilloscope) off-line test
method to detect faults in power turbogenerator
alternator rotor windings. It replaces our original TDR100
version, which displayed the test waveforms on
an analogue or digital oscilloscope and was previously
manufactured by our associate company, Convex Design Ltd.(CDL). For further details, please click
here.
The RFM200 Rotor Flux Probe Monitor
The RFM200 Rotor Flux Probe Monitor detects winding faults by processing the output signal from a magnetic flux probe (search coil)
located in the air gap between a rotor and its stator. It is an on-line test method which is used with the generator
in its normal operating mode. For further details, please click here.
