Comtest is pleased to introduce Fluke's 1750 Power Recorder designed to provide users with long-term visibility into installation and distribution systems to address intermittent or hard-to-diagnose power quality issues.
Fluke's 1750 Power Recorder features a unique capture algorithm that enables users to record every measurement on every event and 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 Power Recorder eliminates the time-consuming, complex set-ups and blind spots associated with threshold-driven equipment by enabling users to apply threshold after data is collected.
Fluke's Power Analyser software enables easy analysis of captured data and rapidly generates reports- the new EN50106 power quality data compliance report is created automatically. The power recorder requires only single-lead voltage connections; automatically detects, scales and powers current probes; and automatically begins recording once power is applied. The Bluetooth PDA interface enables users to view waveform displays, meter screens and phasor diagram in real time; swap channel internally without reconnecting wires; and control multiple Fluke 1750 Power Recorders from a distance.
The Power Recorder is designed to provide a complete analysis of power quality, harmonics, flicker, power and energy with cross-channel current and voltage triggering on at 10 input channels simultaneously. The snapshot mode enables users and analyse waveforms the defined intervals, and users can flag events in the data stream with notes in voice, data or photo format using a PDA. For applications requiring long-term recording, Fluke's 1750 features internal flash memory for data storage and enables users to download data directly onto the included memory card or transfer data to a computer via an Ethernet
connection.
