Power analyzer figures out fluctuations and flicker
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 6/1/2006
UK-based Thurlby Thandar Instruments has introduced the HA1600A power analyzer that measures line harmonics and flicker to standards EN61000-3-2 and EN61000-3-3. As an upgraded version of the earlier HA1600, the new model provides firmware to meet the latest standards, and it enables users to self-certify compliance with the standards for CE marking.
The analyzer has a 16-A current capability and uses shunt resistance of 3 mV. An LCD provides both graphical and numeric readout. In addition to RS-232C and USB interfaces, isolated monitor outputs provide reconstructed voltage and current signals. The analyzer provides numerical and graphical analysis of the 1st to the 40th line harmonics, which it displays as lists or histograms with compliance limits.
