The PowerPad® Jr. Model 8230 is a single-phase power quality analyzer that is easy-to-use, compact and shock-resistant. It is intended for technicians and engineers to measure and carry out diagnostic work and power quality work on single- or three-phase balanced load networks. Users are able to obtain instant waveforms of an electrical network’s principal characteristics, and also monitor their variation over a period of time. The multi-tasking measurement system simultaneously handles all the measurement functions and waveform display of the various magnitudes, detection, continuous recordings and their display without any constraints.

Features:

• Measures up to 660Vrms or VDC
• Measures up to 6500AAC or 1400ADC (probe dependent)
• Displays Min, Max and Average Volts and Amps, Crest Factor, Peak value and K-Factor
• Calculates and displays Watts, VARs and VA, Power Factor and Displacement Power Factor for single-phase and balanced three-phase
• Displays total harmonic distortion (THD-F and THD-R) for voltage and current
• Displays individual harmonic values and % for Volts and Amps through the 50th harmonic
• Captures, displays and stores inrush current waveforms and statistics
• Stores up to eight screen captures
• Stores up to 1MB of trend recorded data
• Configurable from DataView® software or front panel
• Download stored data to DataView® software via optical with isolated USB port
• Captures up to 4096 alarm events using up to 10 different thresholds
• Displays and records up to 17 different power quality parameters
• Includes DataView® software FREE.

 
Applications:

• Motor start-up analysis
• Verification of power distribution circuits
• Measurement and recording of power system quality (kW, VA, VAR)
• Energy metering (kVAh, VARh, kWh)
• In-plant troubleshooting of power distribution panels and individual machinery
• Determine harmonic problems originating from source or load
