Clamp inputs (.. 2 V a.c.).*

a.c. Voltage inputs

Power Supply: 12 V c.c. / Serial input

* IN only in AR5-L models

Setup: Analyzer’s setting is completed through a system of spreadable menus that provide a friendly-use and intuitive configuration process.

Data visualization: By means of a liquid crystal graphical display, 160 x 160 pixels and with backlight ability, the user can view instantaneous, maximum and minimum values of each parameter at each phase.

Internal battery: permits the user to accomplish with analysis works without the need of an external auxiliary power supply. The analyzer is equipped with an intelligent battery charging system, which expands the battery life span. For recharge the battery is necessary to connect the power supplier.

Installation: Analyzer is suitable for analysis works over any type of electric networks (single-phase, bi-phase, 3-wire and 4-wire).

Measuring: Measurement of average values of main electrical parameters, as well as, recording of maximum and minimum values. To execute these measurements, the analyzer is equipped with three a.c. voltage inputs and four a.c. current inputs (through current clamps ../ 2 V a.c.).

Data collection: The analyzer has a 1 Mb on-board memory to save into all the parameters measured or calculated by the analyzer, in order to be further retrieved from a PC.

PC software: together with the analyzer, it is also factory supplied a friendlyuse, powerful software that permits data downloading from the internal memory to a PC and a further complex analysis of recorded data.

2.2.- Other characteristics

6

—Small size, low weight, portable instrument.

—True R.M.S. measuring system.

—Instantaneous, maximum and minimum values of each discrete electric parameter.

—Electrical energy meters incorporated

—Harmonic measurement

—Neutral current measurement (only in AR5-L model)

—Automatic data collection in memory at regular user-definable periods.

Depending on the type of circuit under analysis, following enumerated parameters are measured and can be saved in memory:

NOTE: It’s not allow to save cosϕ data in memory. Only can be read on display.

•4-wire three-phase system:

7

•3-wire three-phase system:

3.- KEYBOARD FUNCTIONS

The analyzer has a 9 buttons keyboard to perform configuration and control actions of all the instrument options.

—[ON] to turn the analyzer on.

—[OFF] (Quick press) to turn on/off the display back-light.

—[OFF] (5 seconds press) to turn analyzer off.

—[6], [5], [4] & [3]. To select among several options.

—[SET] to access setting options.

—[ENTER] to validate a setting option or to program some parameters of the visualization screens.

—[ESC] to select different visualization screens or to exit the setting actions.

However, most of keys are double functional: The own instrument understands the meaning of the order at each case.

4.- Installation AND START-UP

The manual you hold in your hands contains information and warnings that the user should respect in order to guarantee a proper operation of all the instrument functions and keep its safety conditions.

If the instrument is not used according to manufacturer’s specifications, the protection of the instrument can be damaged. Note that with the instrument powered on, cover opening or elements removal actions may allow accessing dangerous parts. Therefore, before any adjustment, replacement, maintenance or repairing operation is carried out, the instrument must be disconnected from any power supply source.

When any protection failure is suspected to exist, the instrument must be immediately put out of service. Contact then with a qualified service representative.

4.1.- Steps necessary for the START-UP

9

For the Star-up of the equipment and to let it ready to begin to register is necessary to make the following steps.

1)Plug the battery, see point 11.-CHANGING THE BATTERY
