Yokogawa WT300E Digital Power Analyzer
The WT300E series digital power analyzer provides extremely low current measurement capability down to 50 micro-Amps, and a maximum of up to 26 Amps RMS. This instrument is ideal for engineers performing stand-by power measurements, Energy Star®, SPECpower and IEC62301 / EN50564 testing, battery charger and other low-level power measurements.
The WT300E's wide range of functions and enhanced specifications, allows handling of all the measurement applications from low frequency to high frequency inverters using a single power meter.
Accuracy with fast display and update rate:
The WT300E series with the fast display update rate of 100ms, offer’s engineers a short tact time in their testing procedures. The basic accuracy for all input ranges is 0.1% rdg + 0.05% rng (50/60Hz) and DC 0.1% rdg + 0.2% rng.
Simultaneous Measurement:
U/I/P/Freq/Integ(+/-)/Harmonics components/ THD with max. 100ms cycle.
In addition to standard power measurements, the WT300E series measures all DC and AC parameters. Additionally, the WT300E series can measure harmonics and perform integration simultaneously without changing the measurement mode. The accompanying WTViewerFreePlus software can monitor and save the 200 parameters used.
Auto ranging function available in selected ranges.
The auto-range function is used to select or change the ranges automatically, within specified ranges. This results in shorter range changing times, allowing more efficient testing.
Auto Ranging Function For Integration Measurement
Typically, when power meters operate in an integration mode to measure power consumption and standby power, the measuring ranges need to be fixed. However, if the level of the input exceeds the maximum of the selected range, the test will need to be repeated. The WT300E Series has a high-speed automatic ranging capability in integration mode, which removes the need to repeat any test.
Bandwidth: DC and 0.1Hz to 100 kHz (WT310EH is up to 20 kHz for 40A).
Direct Input: Maximum direct input of up to 600V and 20A, or 40A (incase of WT310EH). The wide current input ranges on the WT310E series, give users the option to measure current as low as 50 micro-Amps to as high as 40Arms (incase of WT310EH).
High-speed data update (up to 10 readings per second.)
-The WT300E series offers a wide range of communication interfaces such as USB, GP-IB or RS-232 (selectable) and Ethernet Modbus/TCP (Optional)
Wide current input range
Users therefore have the flexibility to choose a variety of settings according to their application needs e.g. from production lines to engineering test benches. Users can use WTViewerFreePlus software to set up all basic and advanced measurements. Additionally, the numeric values, waveform display* and trend graphs of the measurement data can be displayed and saved.
*Waveform display requires the /G5 Harmonic option
Connectivity of Modbus/TCP*1 with YOKOGAWA’s recorders and Ethernet*1 with PLC
Digital data measured by the WT series can be acquired by YOKOGAWA’s recorder GP10*2, *3 and GM*2, *3 via Ethernet or Modbus/TCP directly. It is also possible to make use of the GA10*2 data logging software to monitor and record data.
The WT300E series can also be connected with YOKOGAWA’s PLC, FA-M3V*2 using Modbus TCP protocol for production fields.
*1 /C7 Ethernet option is required.
*2 GP10/GM/GA10/FA-M3V are manufactured by Yokogawa Electric Corporation.
*3 /E2 and /MC options are required.
D/A output for measurement recording
The D/A option is used to output Voltage, Current, Power, and other measured data for recording to data loggers using the +/-5Vdc scaled outputs.
Comparator Mode
This mode will compare measured, computed, and integrated values with previously set determined values by the communication command, and output (from -5V to +5V) determined results by D/A output.
Automatic Zero Adjustment
The WT300E series compensates for any drift in the zero level by automatically performing a zero adjustment when the input ranges are changed. This is achieved in less than 100 ms and does not require disconnecting wires.
-The WT300E series power meters are easy to use, cost effective, and accurate for a wide range of applications, such as production, testing, evaluation, and research and development.
For home appliances and office equipment
Production line or QA testing of electric devices
The simultaneous measurement of power consumption parameters such as U, I, P, frequency, power factor and harmonics for production line or QA testing, results in reduced tact times, thereby, reducing time and cost of testing. The D/A outputs and communication interfaces enable data to be remotely and flexibly captured. *“Modbus/TCP” function is available with the Ethernet (/C7) option.
Development and evaluation tool for home appliances
The range skip function reduces the transition period between range changes. The WT310E can measure both large and small currents accurately in a single test. This can reduce the total evaluation period or remove the need to use two, rather than one, power meters for the application, thereby saving on capital cost of testing.
Testing to international standards, such as IEC62301, Energy Star and SPECpower*1
The WT310E together with the Power Consumption Measurement (PCM) software enables users to perform standby power testing in accordance with international standards.
*1 Coming soon
*2 The IEC62301E2.0 is a reference standard in the EN50564: 2011 Directive. This software corresponds to a test method of those two standards.
Evaluation of large current equipment
The WT310EH allows 40 Arms to be directly connected to the input without the requirement to use current clamps or current sensors. This not only provides more precise measurement but also saves on investment costs. The wide current ranges are from 1 A to 40 A and voltage ranges are from 15 V to 600 V.
Users can use it to evaluate special waveform driven devices such as, IH cookers and heaters.
For industrial equipment and transportation
Automotive- Battery or DC driven device evaluation
Duration testing and efficiency measurement for industrial motors and rotating machinery
Conformance and evaluation testing of uninterruptable power supplies (UPS)
The WT300E series enables users to conduct conformity tests according to UPS performance testing standards. The WT300E series is used to measure and calculate input & output levels, efficiency, frequency and THD. The average active power data also provides accurate values of power consumption. This equipment along with the WTViewerFreePlus software helps to simultaneously measure all necessary parameters required to test a UPS, thereby reducing the evaluation time.
