Fluke’s power quality and energy analyser

May 2016 Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration

South Africa’s cost of power is increasing at an alarming rate, hence industry and facilities alike are looking for ways to conserve energy in order to reduce escalating energy bills.

Fluke has engineered a solution for this crisis, which has the ability to quantify energy losses in monetary terms. The answer is the Fluke 430 Series II Power Quality and Energy Analysers. The energy analysis capabilities of the 430 Series II gives electricians the ability to determine how much power is going to waste, and calculates the extra consumption costs.

Fluke 434, 435 and 437 Series II models help to locate and troubleshoot power quality problems in three-phase and single-phase power distribution systems. Additionally, the Fluke-patented energy loss algorithm, Unified Power Measurement, measures and quantifies energy losses due to poor power quality such as harmonics and unbalance issues, allowing users to pinpoint the origin of energy waste within a system and make the necessary repairs.

The 434 Series II energy analyser is specifically designed for facilities ­engineers, building managers (energy costs), residential and commercial electricians and basic power quality users and delivers power and energy analysis using patented algorithms – energy loss calculator monetises cost of poor power quality.

The 435 Series II power quality and energy analyser finds application in waveform capture and power inverter efficiency, where determining the efficiency of inverters in solar, wind and UPS applications is required.

Top-of-the-range 437 Series II power quality and energy analyser targets the military defence, avionics and other transport-focused industrial electricians and technicians for the capture of power quality measurements for avionic and military power systems with 400 Hz frequency needs.
