PS4500 - Power Quality Analyzer

THE
POWERSIGHT PS4500 POWER QUALITY ANALYZER is
a versatile, easy-to-use power quality analyzer that is
ideal for comprehensive power quality studies, energy
audits, load studies, harmonic analysis, and more. The
PS4500 couples small size with sophisticated triggering and
event capture to answer your power quality questions.
Our Advanced PowerSight
Manager software improves your efficiency and eliminates
sources of error at each stage of the monitoring process.
|
It Can:
• Catch power quality events such as fast transients
(impulses) to 8 microseconds, voltage sags (dips),
and swells. • Measure total and individual harmonic distortion
to the 50th harmonic • Record energy use (kWh), and log all power
parameters: watts, VA, Power Factor, etc. • Data log RMS voltage and current over time
(days/weeks/months) with down to one second
resolution • Display real time values in meter window – just
like a multimeter • Display oscilloscope waveforms, harmonic spectra,
phasors via a PC and Bluetooth wireless
communications • Measure DC voltage and current • Monitor 50Hz, 60Hz, 400Hz, and variable frequency
systems
HANDS-ON CHOICE!
It's rubberized contoured case and rugged
construction make the PS4500 ideal for field work.
Clearly labeled buttons display present maximum,
minimum, and average values on a back-lit LCD screen
for quickly making spot measurements and over-all
evaluation at panels and equipment. Our patented
SureStart feature automatically checks for wrong
connections before you begin monitoring to ensure a
successful power study every time.
Use it on just about any type of power system in the
world. Redundant communications and data storage so
there is always a way to communicate and get data.
Set logging period from 1 second to 99 minutes for
months of logging. At 1 second logging, capacity is
limited by the size of your SD card (32GB maximum).
Data is saved to internal memory that can be
downloaded to a PC via Bluetooth. Alternatively, the
PS4500 includes a removable SD memory card slot that
allows you to backup power survey data and transfer
the data to a PC via an SD card. PC software and
Report Writer are included.
EVERY CYCLE EXAMINED – FAST!
High-speed sampling to 8 microseconds offers high
performance for capturing spikes and transients.
Cycle-by-cycle RMS measurement provides the greatest
accuracy for data logging. Half-cycle RMS
measurement provides highest resolution for
triggering and tracking voltage fluctuations.
Continuous sampling ensures no cycle is missed on
any input. The meter is never "blind" or idling.
SAFE FOR NFPA 70E AND CSA Z462 COMPLIANCE
The new safety regulations demand safer tools. The
PowerSight PS4500 has a 600V CAT IV safety rating
(1000V CAT III) - the smart choice for working on
systems to 1000V.
Be Comfortable. Be Safe. Get relief from wearing PPE.

Testing & Safety
PowerSight meters and analyzers with Bluetooth
wireless communications are the safest way to test.
After installing the PowerSight analyzer and its
PROBES, you can get safely away from high voltages
and Arc Flash dangers and test remotely. At a safe
distance, cumbersome PPE suits, hoods, gloves, etc.
can be removed. Thus workers can more comfortably
control their PowerSight analyzer, view connections,
phasors, and real-time values, start/stop monitoring
and download data in complete safety (up to 25 feet
away) via their laptop or tablet computer.
