Capabilities
The analyzer provides comprehensive measurements of power quality
parameters in class S, in accordance with IEC 61000-4-30,
which
guarantees high accuracy of results. Even when the temperature
reaches -20ºC, the measurements are reliable and the device
operation is
stable - all thanks to the built-in heater.
Thanks to the internal battery, the analyzer does not turn off after
a power failure, but maintains recording - up to 6 hours.
Data is recorded
on a removable 2 GB memory card. Logs can be downloaded using a USB
connection or using an external reader. Then they can be analyzed in
free Sonel Analysis software.
Displaying data
All recorded parameters - including indicated events - can be easily
read using the dedicated Sonel Analysis software. The
advanced features of
the application allow you to view the collected results and save
them on your computer’s hard drive - in the form of raw data or
reports.
Sonel Analysis is constantly updated and developed. This
means that the user will keep up with the latest requirements of
norms and standards.
Application
PQM-700 fulfills its role in industry - in hands of electricians,
maintenance services etc. - as a cheap, multi-functional load
parameter recorder.
It is also used by consumers and producers of renewable energy (wind
farms, solar farms), where a 4-quadrant power analysis is required.
SONEL ANALYSIS
Sonel Analysis software – application delivered as standard
accessory, indispensable for working with PQM-series analyzers.
Depending
on the mating instrument used, the software enables:
- analyzer configuration,
- data reading from logger,
- preview of network parameters in real time
(with capability of reading via GSM modem),
- deletion of data in the analyzer,
- data presentation in tables,
- data presentation in charts,
- data analysis and generating reports in
compliance with standard EN 50160 (reports) and other user
defined reference conditions
- also for PV micro-installations up to 50 kW, a breakdown
for active power states P>0,
P<0 and P=0 and taking into account the graphs Q1=f(U1/Un)
and cosφ=f(P/Pn),
- independent support of multiple
analyzers,
- analyzer firmware updates.
The software enables readout of selected parameters and their
visualization in real time. These parameters are measured
independently from the registration
saved on the memory card. The user can view:
- charts of voltage and current progression
(oscilloscope),
- charts of voltage and current over
time,
- phasor diagram,
- measurements of multiple parameters,
- harmonics and harmonic powers (estimating the
direction of harmonics),
- interharmonics.
