Power Analyzer
Where Accuracy Meets Versatility
Featuring Spiral Shunt™ technology, the new Tektronix PA4000 Power Analyzer delivers consistently accurate measurements, even with challenging power waveforms. While most power analyzers rely on zero-crossing point to detect and track fundamental frequency, the PA4000 Power Analyzer uses a unique method to lock onto signals, no matter how complex. Add in wide current and voltage input ranges, built-in test modes and standard PC interfaces, and you have a power analyzer that’s as versatile as it is accurate.
Features & Benefits |
- 1 to 4 Input Modules allows several configurations to match your application
- High measurement accuracy of 0.04% (basic voltage & current accuracy) for demanding test requirements
- Dual internal current shunts for each module maximize accuracy for high- and low-current measurements
- Unique Spiral ShuntTM design maintains stability over variations in current, temperature, etc. (patent applied for)
- Proprietary frequency detection algorithms ensure rock-solid frequency tracking even on noisy waveforms
- Application-specific test modes simplify instrument setup and reduce the likelihood of user error
- Easy data export to USB flash drive or remote PC software, for reporting and/or remote control
- Many standard features such as comm ports and harmonic analysis eliminate costly upgrade options
