High-speed power analysers are designed to provide the scientist, engineer and technician with more electrical and mechanical signal information than is normally found in one single instrument
Precision instrument specialist Tinsley has introduced the 4107A range of high-speed power analysers.
The range of ten variants provides a series of multipurpose instruments designed for laboratory and field use, for production testing and quality control.
They offer high accuracy, wide frequency range, and high common mode rejection for precision measurements on inverters, light ballasts, and ultrasonic transducers.
Each version has six soft key menu controls and five soft key cursor controls.
Configuring the display and interface, storing settings such as the scaling factors, selecting the operating mode, selecting the input ranges, and many more features are self-explanatory.
Furthermore personal instrument settings can be saved and the units can start-up with these personal configurations at power-on.
Efficient data processing permits simultaneous measurements on all three phases of a three phase system and yields comprehensive signal information including RMS and power values, harmonics, phase angles and, where applicable, mechanical power output, torque, efficiency, and slip.
A programmable data logging function permits transfer of up to 500RMS and power values per second to a personal computer.
The Tinsley operating software produces plots of power versus time or speed, or current versus time or frequency.
The 4107A determines electrical motor torque applied to its load and torque transducers are not needed.
A speed transducer is required for induction motors and DC motors but not for synchronous motors.
An operating mode for dynamic torque measurement in the air gap of a generator or motor provides plots of torque versus speed, frequency or time, and helps to detect undesirable peaks.
The range includes single and three-phase units with varying facilities and accuracy levels from 0.3% to 0.05% to suit different applications and budgets.
Several accessories and options are also offered.
