Анализатор качества электроэнергии класса А Metrel MI 2892 — прибор класса А согласно требований ГОСТ Р 51317.4.30, предназначен для сертификации электрической энергии (в соответствии с ГОСТ Р 54149). Анализатор имеет цветной большой дисплей с интуитивно удобным интерфейсом, крупные значки визуально облегчают анализ результатов. Есть возможность увеличения памяти анализатора MI 2892 с помощью карт памяти до 32 ГБ. Передача данных возможна через сеть Ethernet, также через USB и RS 232. Конфигурация регистрации ПКЭ в соответствии с ГОСТ Р 54149 – уже предустановлена в приборе анализатора качества MI 2892. Доставка прибора анализатора качества MI 2892 осуществляется с государственной первичной проверкой. В анализаторе MI 2892 предусмотрена возможность получения протоколов измерения, что рекомендованы ГОСТ Р 53333 при помощи ПО POWER VIEW. Прибор имеет высокую частоту дискретизации (51,2 кГц). Также возможен просмотр данных без остановки регистрации. При покупке дополняется комплектом клещей А1227 30/300/3000 А.
