Power analyser covers simple to
complicated tasks
Power analyser can be used for jobs as simple as measuring the power requirement of a coffee machine or as complex as determining power parameters of a frequency inverter system.
Tinsley has introduced the 4106A power analyser that can be used for jobs as simple as measuring the power requirement of a coffee machine to a task as complex as determining the pertinent power parameters of a frequency inverter driven system Single and three phase versions are available and, unusual for an instrument at this price level, the 4106A will cope with the extreme signals generated by frequency inverter drives and will maintain accuracy regardless of input signal wave form

Machinery levelling mounts resist chemicals
Nylon machinery levelling mounts are available in carbon and stainless steel, have a glass filled nylon plastics base and a non-skid elastomer rubber pad that resists most chemicals.
SKF bearings resist temperatures up to 350 deg C
SKF's latest Y-bearing units for extreme temperatures also resist aggressive fluids, gases and particulate matter yet they require little or no lubrication.
It has a large and bright display with 9mm high digits that can be easily read from a distance of up to 4m, even in darkened environments.
The user menu simplifies setup and operation.
Measured values can be printed, sent to a PC via IEEE/RS232 interfaces, or to a chart recorder via the analog outputs.
Options can be chosen individually from a wide range so that customers can tailor the instrument to their specific requirements The analyser inputs are all galvanically isolated, are broad band DC-300kHz, have a wide input range (0.3V - 1000V, 15mA - 40A) and feature common mode rejection for use in frequency inverter driven systems.
Accuracy is 0.1% but 0.05% versions are available.
The LCD monitor displays up to 10 measured values and the three-phase variant provides up to 32 measured values on screen.
Wave forms, bar graphs or trend plots can be shown and the instrument can display a combination of meter mode and graphic mode.
With future developments, and when features are added to the 4106A, users will be able to obtain cost effective upgrades through Tinsley and its distributors.
The instrument is supplied with a traceable calibration certificate.
