Power analyser offers ‘leading’ accuracy and performance
Expanding its family of precision power analysers, Tektronix has introduced a single phase solution which it says offers the best performance in its class, with 0.05% basic accuracy and 1MHz measurement bandwidth.
Featuring a patent pending Spiral Shunt design, the PA1000 includes two internal current shunts – one for current measurements up to 1Amp and another for measurements up to 20Amps.
It also comes with a colour graphical display and one button access to measurement results, power waveforms, harmonic bar graphs and menus.
Tektronix says the device enables engineers to obtain accurate power measurements in the shortest time possible.
Application specific test modes for standby current, lamp ballast testing and energy integration have been included to help simplify optimisation of instrument settings, saving time and reducing mistakes.
