Horstmann SMART NAVIGATOR
Faulted Circuit Indicator (FCI)

Overhead FCI SMART Navigator Series
The SMART NAVIGATOR is an Overhead Faulted Circuit Indicator that is designed and engineered for Smart Grid – Distribution Automation applications. The SMART NAVIGATOR is installed on Overhead Distribution Circuits and transmits event based fault information in addition to continuous circuit status information.
The SMART NAVIGATOR is integrated into an existing Smart Grid system and can operate in combination with either the Smart Receiver and an RTU or the Navicomm where different WAN environments such as cellular, radio, etc. A pole mounted Sensus NaviComm RTU with an integrated SMART CONTROLLER acts as a WAN access point.
The SMART NAVIGATOR detects fault current in the same manner as the stand-alone Navigator-LM Overhead Indicator. The feature of load leveling with load memory enables the unit to automatically set the fault trip threshold in relation to peak load current. Once the unit identifies fault current above its trip rating threshold, the SMART NAVIGATOR sends a signal to the SMART CONTROLLER located in the NaviComm RTU. Local indication is provided by a bright red flash-ing LED. Several combinations of reset methods are available includ-ing current, time and manual.
In addition to event based fault identification, the SMART NAVIGATOR also can report fault data, load current, temperature and status data.
Sensus Distribution Automation (DA) has partnered with Horstmann to develop the NaviComm™ system, a self-contained communicating faulted circuit indictor (FCI) solution for overhead distribution lines. The NaviComm system is an integrated FCI receiver and communications unit that monitors and controls up to 12 Smart Navigator wireless faulted circuit indicators which provide fault current magnitude and load metrics. Its unique load monitoring and reporting capabilities give utilities access to critical operational and planning information in real-time along with traditional fault indication. The NaviComm system communicates using GSM cellular networks or Sensus FlexNet TM private networks.

Load Tracking - Load Memory
c/w Pulse/Pause/Zero
FCI - LT Series Fault Indicators are primarily designed for utility
underground cables, where phase to phase spacing is limited. The
closed core, cable clamping mechanism is designed to significantly
reduce the proximity effect of adjacent cables and for easy installation
and/or removal with a hot stick.
