The PQ3100 aids in reliable power analysis by delivering analytical capabilities that reliably captures the full range of power anomalies along with exceptional ease of use.
Inrush current (half-wave), RMS value, waveform peak, unbalance rate (reverse phase/forward phase), K factor, Current DC
1/2 RMS value (half-wave offset wave calculation), crest factor
Power:
Active power, reactive power, apparent power, power factor, displacement power factor, active energy, reactive energy
Apparent energy, electrical charges
Flicker: Support for flicker measurement planned with a future firmware update.
Harmonics: 0th order (DC) to 50th order, voltage/current/power, phase angle (voltage/current), voltage/current phase difference, total harmonic distortion ratio (voltage/current)
Inter-harmonics: 0.5th order to 49.5th order, voltage/current
Circuit management - Record power quality on the utility grid
Equipment malfunctions - Analyze issues with power supplies
DC Power - Measure AC/DC power
Settings are a breeze with QuickSet - Launch QuickSet to navigate everything from connection procedures to wiring checks and measurement settings on the instrument’s screen.
External power supply not required - The PQ3100 powers all sensors, eliminating the need to use AC adapters. Flexible current sensors provide a convenient way to make measurements in tight spaces, including power supply circuits with double and triple wiring.
Complete recording of normal recovery - Where legacy models only recorded post anomaly waveforms for 1 sec., the PQ3100 extends recordings to 10 sec. The ability to also record 1 sec. before the anomaly occurred is useful when you need to analyze waveform characteristics before and after the event.
