PCE Power analyser PCE-PA 8500

The power analyser redefines the standards in electrical measurement technology and offers a comprehensive range of functions for precise and detailed measurements. The power analyser enables accurate measurements of electrical voltage, current, frequency, harmonics, harmonics and starting currents. In addition, precise power and energy measurements can be made, enabling accurate monitoring and optimisation of energy consumption.
The graphical display of waveforms and vector graphics allows users to visually capture and analyse electrical signals. These functions provide insights into the quality of the electrical current and help to identify problems in the grid. The device can also recognise and display dips, peaks or flickering in the supply network.

This wide range of measurements or the desired selection allows the integrated data logger with a generous 8 GB memory to save and archive extensive measurement data for later analyses. This ensures continuous data acquisition, which can also be time-controlled. The power analyser is equipped with LAN and USB interfaces for convenient data transfer and remote control. These interfaces offer seamless integration of the power analyser into existing networks and systems.

Included flexible current clamps with a capacity of up to 3000 A facilitate the measurement of high currents and enable accurate results, even in demanding applications.
The power analyser complies with international test standards (IEC61000-4-30, 61000-4-15, 61000-4-7, EN50160), which guarantees the quality and accuracy of the measurements and ensures that it meets the demanding requirements of professional applications.

Whether you need to test the operating characteristics of transformers, lighting systems or switching electronics such as frequency converters or power supply units - our power analysers guarantee maximum accuracy and are capable of precisely analysing even complex signal shapes.
