Threshold free setup for power quality
February 1st 2010 Fluke has introduced the 1750
Power Recorder, which is designed
to provide users with long-term
visibility into installation or
distribution systems to address
intermittent or hard-to-diagnose
power quality issues.The Fluke
1750 features a capture algorithm
that enables users to record every
measurement on every event on
every cycle without first applying
thresholds. Its built-in wireless PDA
interface provides a window into
what the instrument is recording
and enables remote configuration
in awkward test locations.
The Fluke 1750 Power Recorder
uses IEC 61000 4-30 algorithms for
all power quality parameters. It
eliminates the time-consuming and
often complex set-ups and the blind
spots associated with thresholddriven
equipment by enabling users
to apply thresholds after data is
collected. Fluke Power Analyser
Software enables analysis of
captured data and rapidly generates
reports – the new EN50106 power
quality data compliance report is
created automatically. It requires
only single-lead voltage
connections; automatically detects,
scales and powers current probes;
and automatically begins recording
once power is applied.With the
Bluetooth PDA interface, users can
view waveform displays,meter
screens and phasor diagrams in real
time; swap channels internally
without reconnecting wires; and
control multiple Fluke 1750 Power
Recorders from a distance.
The 1750 Power Recorder
provides analysis of power quality,
harmonics, flicker, power and
energy with cross-channel current
and voltage triggering on all 10
input channels simultaneously.
