Introduction
The Dranetz PowerXplorer® PX5, Power Guide 4400, and the Power
Visa are three portable, hand-held, eight-channel power quality
meter/monitors, very similar in operation though the PX5 and 4400 have
some additional parameters not in the Power Visa, and the PX5 has a
high speed sampling board for capturing the details of very fast
transients. The common features are covered in this document, and the
PX5 name will be used to represent all three instruments. These cutting-
edge power quality instruments are designed with a color liquid crystal
display (LCD) 1/4 VGA, using touch screen technology. They can
monitor, record and display data on four voltage channels and four
current channels simultaneously.
PX5 is designed to meet both the IEEE 1159 and IEC 61000-4-30 Class
A standards for accuracy and measurement requirements. It can do PQ-
optimized acquisition of power quality related disturbances and events. It
is designed with a statistical package called Quality of Supply (QOS),
with monitoring and setup protocols set to determine voltage
measurement compliance required for EN50160 monitoring. European
standard EN50160 requires that measurement parameters must be
within a specified percentage for 95% of the time.
The PX5 firmware can monitor power quality phenomena for
troubleshooting and/or compliance purposes. It can record inrush
conditions, carry out long-term statistical studies to establish
performance baselines, and perform field-based equipment testing and
evaluation for commissioning and maintenance. The firmware integrates
an intuitive instrument setup procedure to ensure the capture of all
relevant data for additional post process analysis, report writing, and
data archiving using other compatible Dranetz software applications such
as NodeLink® and DranView®.
