Fluke 438-II/BASIC Offers

The ideal portable tool for motor analysis testing, the 438-II can help locate, prevent, predict and troubleshoot power quality problems in three-phase and single-phase power distribution systems, while giving technicians the mechanical and electrical information they need to evaluate motor performance effectively.

Features

• Measure key parameters on direct-on-line motors including torque, RPM, mechanical power and motor efficiency

• Perform dynamic motor analysis by plotting of motor de-rating factor against load according to NEMA guidelines

• Calculate mechanical power and efficiency without the need of mechanical sensors, just connect to the input conductors and you're ready to go

• Measure electrical power parameters such as voltage, current, power, apparent power, power factor, harmonic distortion and unbalance to identify characteristics that impact motor efficiency

• Identify power quality issues such as dips, swells, transients, harmonics and unbalance

• PowerWave data technology captures fast RMS data, and shows half-cycle averages and waveforms to characterize electrical system dynamics (generator start-ups, UPS switching etc.)

• Waveform capture function captures 100/120 cycles (50/60 Hz) of each event detected event, in all modes, without set-up

• Automatic transient mode captures waveform data at 200 kS/s on all phases simultaneously up to 6 k

Applications

• Industrial Manufacturing Plants

• Electrical Contracting and Consulting

• Commercial and Institutional Facility Management Departments
