Monitoring modes
PX5 allows users to monitor events in the following setup categories:
Standard Power Quality, Current Inrush, Fault Recorder, Long-term
Timed Recording, Continuous Data Logging, and EN50160 Power
Quality mode. Selecting any setup category automatically sets trigger
and capture conditions. Advanced users re free to mix and match
settings (see Chapter 6 Advanced Setup Options).
Standard Power Quality, Demand, Energy: PX5 algorithms automatically
evaluate existing rms and waveform conditions to optimize setups to
reliably capture data. This feature ensures that the first-time user gets
the expected results, while providing the experienced user with the ability
to tweak settings for specific applications. Either way, the necessary data
used to identify critical events and optimize mitigation solutions is
recorded into the data card as it occurs.
Current Inrush: Determining system characteristics during current inrush
conditions such as impedance changes during motor energization or the
I2t curve of a breaker trip is key to preventative maintenance and
enhanced power system performance. Inrush type events such as motor
start-up typically requires extended duration cycle-by-cycle recording.
With PX5, users can capture and store detailed data to evaluate system
performance against specifications and previous benchmark data. Under
the current inrush mode, triggers are current-based. By operating in the
inrush mode, the instrument will capture and store highly detailed data to
