More visibility, reduced uncertainty and better power quality and energy consumption decisions

Compatible with the Fluke Connect® mobile app and desktop software, this unit provides you the data required for you to make critical power quality and energy decisions in real-time. Ideal for conducting energy studies and basic power quality logging, this automatically captures and logs over 500 power quality parameters, giving you more visibility into the data you need to optimize system reliability and savings.

Features an optimized user interface and an intelligent measurement verification function that enables you to decrease measurement errors by digitally verifying and correcting common connection errors makes setup easier and reduces measurement uncertainty. Access and share data remotely with your team via the Fluke Connect® app so you can maintain safer working distances and make critical decisions in real-time, reducing the need for protective equipment, site visits, and check-ins. You can also quickly and easily chart and graph measurements to help identify issues and create detailed reports with the included Energy Analyze Plus software package.

Features

  • Measure all three phases and neutral with 4 flexible current probes
  • Comprehensive logging: More than 20 separate logging sessions can be stored on the instruments. In fact, all measured values are automatically logged so you never loose measurement trends. They can even be reviewed during logging sessions and before downloading for real-time analysis
  • Capture dips, swells, and inrush currents: Includes event waveform snapshot and high resolution RMS profile, along with date, timestamp and severity to help pinpoint potential root causes of power quality issues
  • Bright, color touch screen: Perform convenient in-the-field analysis and data checks with full graphical display

Webinar: Electrical Power Testing


It’s no secret that power quality can have a big impact on productivity and safety in the workplace. That’s why there’s been a rapid increase in the demand for electrical power measurement equipment recently. With that in mind, having an effective frontline troubleshooting and reliability tactic should be a priority. Keeping track of the power quality in your facility plays an important part in avoiding costs related to poor power quality management like productivity costs, reduced efficiency, higher energy bills, and capital equipment degradation and failure.

Webinar: Facilities Maintenance with Fluke


Proactive maintenance and energy savings strategies are essential for cost savings in facilities.

We’ve teamed up with Fluke to provide you with a thorough discussion on proactive maintenance strategies – approaches, tools, and the proper “health” measurements on critical assets. As managing energy costs are also critical, we will also explore how implementing an onsite compressed air and gas leak detection program, facilities can save tens of thousands of dollars annually and production equipment downtime. The latest test equipment advances have made it possible for users to perform leak inspections with little to no training in a fraction of the time versus conventional tools.

During this short webinar on Facilities Maintenance, we covered:
  • Monitoring critical assets with fewer resources
  • Bridging the skills gap
  • Why are we replacing the same bearings and seals over and over?
  • What are the best tools to use?
  • How do we justify the cost of the tools and resources?
  • How do we start a Proactive Maintenance program?

Webinar: Introduction to Portable Precision Power Analyzers with Fluke


This wideband precision analyzer is accurate enough for the lab, yet it's built for the field. Offering you more freedom than ever before to make high accuracy power measurements wherever you need to. Whether in the lab or in the field. Designed for portability and eliminates the need to carry large, fragile, expensive analyzers into the field, allowing you to make measurements directly at the load in nearly any environment. By measuring directly at the load, you can discover how the equipment operates under real-world conditions, with real-world variables, not just at a test bench or in the lab.

Webinar: Electrical Power Testing


It’s no secret that power quality can have a big impact on productivity and safety in the workplace. That’s why there’s been a rapid increase in the demand for electrical power measurement equipment recently. With that in mind, having an effective frontline troubleshooting and reliability tactic should be a priority. Keeping track of the power quality in your facility plays an important part in avoiding costs related to poor power quality management like productivity costs, reduced efficiency, higher energy bills, and capital equipment degradation and failure.

Webinar: Facilities Maintenance with Fluke


Proactive maintenance and energy savings strategies are essential for cost savings in facilities.

We’ve teamed up with Fluke to provide you with a thorough discussion on proactive maintenance strategies – approaches, tools, and the proper “health” measurements on critical assets. As managing energy costs are also critical, we will also explore how implementing an onsite compressed air and gas leak detection program, facilities can save tens of thousands of dollars annually and production equipment downtime. The latest test equipment advances have made it possible for users to perform leak inspections with little to no training in a fraction of the time versus conventional tools.

During this short webinar on Facilities Maintenance, we covered:
  • Monitoring critical assets with fewer resources
  • Bridging the skills gap
  • Why are we replacing the same bearings and seals over and over?
  • What are the best tools to use?
  • How do we justify the cost of the tools and resources?
  • How do we start a Proactive Maintenance program?

Webinar: Introduction to Portable Precision Power Analyzers with Fluke


This wideband precision analyzer is accurate enough for the lab, yet it's built for the field. Offering you more freedom than ever before to make high accuracy power measurements wherever you need to. Whether in the lab or in the field. Designed for portability and eliminates the need to carry large, fragile, expensive analyzers into the field, allowing you to make measurements directly at the load in nearly any environment. By measuring directly at the load, you can discover how the equipment operates under real-world conditions, with real-world variables, not just at a test bench or in the lab.
