Fluke has launched a new series of three-phase, handheld power quality analysers with innovative features that enable power quality problems to be accessed faster and in greater detail
Fluke handheld ATEX-certified process calibrator
Fluke has introduced a new loop calibrator, the first of a new line of test tools developed specifically for use in hazardous environments such as petrochemical plants, oil platforms and refineries
It verifies batteries, troubleshoots harmonics up to the 30th, investigates nuisance tripping due to inrush currents with a special Inrush mode, and measures peak currents up to 2000A without the need to break the circuit.
The Fluke 345 Power Quality Clamp Meter features a large, colour display with a user interface which offers enhanced ease-of-use.
Data can be displayed numerically, graphically or as a bar chart.
The tool offers long term logging to identify the most intermittent faults, with the capability of fast downloading to a PC via a USB port.
Easy-to-use Fluke Power Log software included within the comprehensive set of accessories provides powerful analysis of graphs and generation of reports.
The Fluke 345 is particularly useful for measuring distorted AC and DC currents when commissioning variable speed drives, for quantifying energy consumption before and after installation of energy saving devices, for uncovering harmonic issues which can damage or disrupt critical equipment, and for monitoring inrush currents which may cause circuit breaker tripping during motor start up.
As well as the Power Log software, the Fluke 345 includes voltage leads, clips and probes, a USB interface cable and a soft carrying case. Request a free brochure from Fluke (UK) ...
