WT1800E High Resolution Display

Guaranteed accuracy across a wide range

Measure accurately at a wide range of voltage, current and frequency conditions. The basic power accuracy of the WT1800E is guaranteed between 1% to 110% of the selected voltage and current range. This equates to voltages from 15 mV to 1100 V rms and currents from 0.1 mA to 5.5 A rms (for a 5 A input element) and 10 mA to 55 A rms (for a 50 A input element). The unit is also accurate during large phase shifts and high frequencies thanks to the minimized influence of the low power factor error (±0.07% of apparent power).

Range configuration

Track signal changes faster by eliminating unnecessary range changes. The WT1800E’s range configuration function allows users to select input ranges based on their specific use cases so that optimal range settings are achieved quicker. This reduces the time during repetitive production tests, such as setting to OFF, 100 V, OFF and so on, which is performed frequently on the production line.

Harmonic analysis

Analyze harmonics up to the 500th order for a 50/60 Hz fundamental even at a data update interval of 50 milliseconds. The WT1800E features two options for analyzing harmonics in addition to power parameters.

  • Harmonic measurement mode (/G5 option) for fundamental wave, harmonic components and total harmonic distortion (THD)
  • Dual Harmonic option (/G6 option) for side by side measurement of harmonics on two different sources for example input and output of inverters, variable speed motors, lighting ballasts, UPS, etc.

WT1800E Harmonic Analysi

Power integration and auto ranging

Measure energy bought/soldn grid connections or charged/discharged in batteries. The WT1800E’s Power integration function integrates instantaneous values for both positive and negative readings. It also measures total energy (Wh) and current (Ah) when load conditions vary widely such as in devices transitioning from standby to operation mode. Should an input signal start to fall out of the expected range, this function can automatically adjust the range while continuing to integrate the measured values.

High-speed data capture

The high-speed data capturing function can measure Sigma-Urms, Sigma-Irms, and Sigma-P from DC signal and three phase devices every 5 ms when External Synchronization is OFF. It can also update at 1 ms to 100 ms when External Synchronization is ON depending on the frequency of the clock signal.

Flexible & automatic data updates

Manually or automatically set measurement intervals. The WT1800E offers 9 data update interval between 50 ms to 20 s but can also follow fluctuating input frequencies by changing the data update rate automatically. This is useful when measuring devices like motors whose input signal frequency varies with RPM.

Inverter and motor testing

WT1800E Inverter Motor Testing

Overview

Electric and hybrid vehicles have many electrical and mechanical components and therefore an overall performance evaluation requires the efficiency measurement of both. With 6 channels of power inputs, flexible operation and a wide bandwidth, the WT1800E is ideal for efficiency tests between the input and output of inverters. An optional motor evaluation function enables the measurement of rotation speed and changes in torque.

WT1800E Phase

Delta computation

Obtain the line and phase voltages from the sums and differences of the instantaneous values of voltage and current in each element.

  • Line voltages and phase currents that are not measured are computed in the three-phase three-wire system (Figure 1).
  • Star-delta conversion: Line voltage is computed from the phase voltage using the three-phase four-wire system data.
  • Delta-star conversion: Phase voltage is computed from the line voltage in the three-phase three-wire system (3V3A system) (Figure 2).

WT1800E Advantages


Wide bandwidth and High speed sampling

The WT1800E is capable of 16-bit high resolution and 2 MHz sampling making it possible to measure faster signals with higher precision.

Motor evaluation: Electrical angle/rotation/ direction

Measure rotation speed, torque, and output (mechanical power) of motors from analog/pulse inputs of rotation or torque sensors.

Harmonics and dual harmonics

Simultaneously measure distortion factors like THD, fundamental and harmonic components. Harmonics up to the 500th order can be measured even at 50 ms data update rate. Users can also measure harmonics on two different sources simultaneously.

Battery charge/discharge measurements

In integrated measurement, the battery charge and discharge can be evaluated. Instantaneous positive and negative values captured at a high-speed sampling rate of 2 MS/s are integrated.

Line filter to remove high frequency components

In the power evaluation of inverter waveforms, measurement values are affected by high frequency components. A digital filter function makes it possible to remove unnecessary high frequency components superimposed on signals. The filter can be independently set for each input element. An analog filter for 1 MHz/ 300 kHz, and a digital filter that can be set from 100 Hz to 100 kHz in increments of 100 Hz are available as standard.

Efficiency of renewable energy systems

WT1800E Power Flow Of Photovoltaic Power

Overview

Energy generated by photovoltaic cell modules and wind turbines is converted from DC to AC by a power conditioner. Minimizing losses in these conversions improves the efficiency in the overall energy system. The WT1800E provides up to 6 power inputs per unit for measuring voltage, current, power, and frequency (for AC) before and after each converter, as well as the converter and charging efficiencies.

WT1800E Typical Voltage Curret And Power

Measuring instantaneous peak power

In photovoltaic power generation, an MPPT control varies the voltage to maximize energy harvested from the solar panel. The WT1800E can measure not only the voltage, current, and power but also the voltage, current, and power peak values for both plus (+) and minus (−) sides.


WT1800E Advantages


Multiple channels and wide input range

Evaluate Power conditioner efficiency using 6 input channels for simultaneous measurements from the inputs and outputs of boost converter, inverter, and storage battery. Direct input terminals (voltage range: 1.5 V to 1000 V and current range: 10 mA to 5 A or 1 A to 50 A) make it possible to perform high-precision measurements without using a current sensor.

Harmonic distortion factor measurement

Voltage fluctuations and harmonics flow into the power system due to reverse power flow. A harmonic measurement function enables measurement of harmonic components to compute and display total harmonic distortion (THD).

Ripple factor and power loss measurements

A user-defined function makes it possible to compute power loss, DC voltage and DC current ripple factors between the input and output. Up to 20 arithmetic expressions can be set. Display names for the arithmetic operations F1, F2, and so on can be freely changed.

Typical arithmetic expressions

  1. DC voltage ripple factor = [(Voltage peak value (+) – Voltage peak value (−))/2 × DC voltage value (mean)] × 100
  2. Power loss = Output power – Input power

Energy bought/sold and charged/discharged

Measure the amount of power sold/bought in grid interconnection and of battery charge/discharge. Measure the amount of power sold/ bought in grid interconnections and in battery charge/discharges. The WT1800E enables the integration of current (q), apparent power (WS), reactive power (WQ), as well as the effective power integration in sold/bought power and charge/discharge modes. Furthermore, a user-defined function makes it possible to calculate the Average active power within the integration period.

Efficiency of inverter-motor in electric vehicles

WT1800E Inverter Motor In Electrical Vehicle

Overview

WT1800E Advantages


Wide bandwidth and High speed sampling

The WT1800E is capable of 16-bit high resolution and 2 MHz sampling making it possible to measure faster signals with greater precision.

Harmonics and dual harmonics

Motor testing is performed at various rotation speeds. The WT1800E supports a lower limit frequency of 0.1 Hz to enable measurement of harmonics at a very low motor rotation speed without using an external sampling clock.

Motor evaluation: Electrical angle/rotation/direction

Measure rotation speed, torque, and output (mechanical) power of motors from analog/pulse outputs of rotation or torque sensors.

Individual null function: offset correction for each input

A common problem when testing inverter motors is the presence of ambient noise that can mean test values are non-zero even before testing begins. The WT1800E’s null function allows users to enable, disable or reset the offset values for voltage, current and motor input signals of each element separately.

DA output and remote control

Users may want to check changes in data, along with other measurement data (temperature, etc.) at the same time that communication data, such as voltage, current, power, and efficiency are required. A DA output function allows users to generate analog signals on up to 20 channels.

Visão Geral:

Energy consumption in low-power and standby modes is an important issue due to increased awareness that energy resources are becoming limited and demand for energy-saving household electrical appliances continues to grow. IEC62301 Ed2.0 (2011) and EN 50564:2011 define standby mode as the lowest energy consumption of an appliance not performing its main function, when connected to the mains. IEC62301 Ed2.0 (2011) defines test methods and requirements for both the mains supply and the test equipment. It is crucial that design and test engineers choose highly accurate power measurement tools to confirm that their devices meet these requirements.
