Measure
Power Factor
-
4
Voltage Inputs - A, B, C, and Neutral for single phase and three phase
circuits.
-
100
Measurements Each Second - Answers to all common questions about
electric power: present values, summaries, and estimates.
-
Monitor
Demand, Harmonics, or Disturbances - Summary data available on the
display, data log may be uploaded to a computer for display and analysis.
-
12
Voltage Measurements - Maximum, minimum, average, and present value
for each phase-to phase, phase-to neutral, and DC voltage.
-
16
Current Measurements - Maximum, minimum, average, and present value
for A, B, C, and Neutral currents.
-
True

- Maximum, minimum, average, total, and present value.
-
Fundamental
Frequency
-
Accurate from 45 – 66 Hz and 360 – 440 Hz.
-
Duty
Cycle
- Average
"On" Time – Power Cycles – Estimated power cycles per hour,
per day, per week. Excellent diagnostic tool for
thermostatically-controlled loads.

Transient/Swell/Sag
Detection
-
Magnitude, duration, rise time, and time/date of worst transient. All
swells and sags of at least 1 second in duration are recorded while
monitoring consumption.
-
Harmonic
Analysis of Any Voltage or Current
- THD of any of the 3 voltages or 4 currents upon demand (through the 15th
on meter and through the 50th with software). Magnitudes of
individual harmonics (with Harmonic Analysis Option installed).

Clock/Calendar
-
Present time and elapsed time of monitoring may be displayed at any time.
Monitoring may be started or stepped at pre-set times.
-
Straightforward
User Calibration
-
Calibrate voltage, current, and frequency if desired. Set input ratios for
voltages and current for automatic compensation in all calculations.
-
User
Control of Measurement Settings
- Set logging interval from 1 second to 99 minutes. Set utility rate from
$0.00001 to $999,999 per KWH for U.S. and international currencies.
