3 Phase Power Meter - PA 600

 


PA-600 (here in after called PA) is a state of art technology developed by Gopal Electronics, as a result of continuous & steady research and development of our qualified engineering staff.

PA is powerful Instrument for testing Single Phase and Three Phase AC Machines due to it’s high sampling rate, simultaneous measurements for all channels, and capability to perform accurate measurements of Active Power, Trms Value, Mean value and Peak value of Voltage and Current. PA is Micro-Controller based Instrument and hence, performs accurate calculations of PF, CF, FF, S, Q, with any load and signals of frequencies from 30 Hz to 800 Hz. Isolated inputs have a high immunity against electrical disturbances, high dynamic common-mode rejection and feature of multiple measuring ranges: For Current directly from 80mA to 80A and for voltage directly from 6 V to 600V.

PA is designed for user-friendly operation with features like two displays: one LCD and another LED (LED for long distance view) and 16 push buttons, to perform easy operations. Input terminals have been designed to withstand in momentary over load condition up to 200A. PA has no adjustable component inside, therefore it’s accuracy remains for long time without tampering.

PA is enhanced by RS-232 port to interface with computer. Free demo software viz. “DATA TRANSFER TOOL“ has been provided for communication. The software is capable to collect basic data in real time (or from internal memory) and transfers it to specified cells of MS-Excel sheet for further calculation hence, a user can generate his own test report of device under test (e.g transformer / motor etc) as per his desire. We understand our clients better and have tried to fulfill the maximum need of measurement in Transformer and Motor, as a result we have provided four 10 Volt DC channel for interfacing of various types of Transducer for measurement of Temperature , Torque, RPM, Pressure, flow etc.

Application of PA is to test and measure single phase/three phase AC Machines like Transformer, Motor, Food processor, Air conditioner, Fan, Heater, lighting Ballast, Energy meter , calibration of AC meters etc.

Internal Non-Volatile Memory is provided to save up to 125 test results and all test results can be transferred to computer one by one using Data transfer tool so there is no need to note down test results by hand.

Note:
1. If the input contains distorted wave, the calculation based parameters may not match to those of the other measuring
    instruments based on different measuring principles.
2. If either voltage or current falls to 10% of the range rating or less, then the apparent power (S), power factor (pf) & reactive    
    power (Q) may be displayed with errors.
3. No sign of power factor is displayed when current lags the voltage and negative sign is displayed when current leads the voltage.
