Description
The PDA1252 is a portable
power quality analyzer designed to monitor, isolate
and troubleshoot power system disturbances. Using
our advanced analysis software, Communicator EXT,
view real time data presented in a simple and
powerful format. Maximize Communicator EXT's power
with the optional AIReports to generate disturbance
solutions and advanced power reports. The
unit is ideal for load surveys, monitoring transformer
banks and indoor/outdoor electrical monitoring.
The PDA 1252 is mounted in its own watertight
carrying case and uses watertight connectors to
connect voltage and current leads. Based on the
Nexus 1252 platform, the PDA 1252 is easy to use
and operate.
Reveal
$avings
Using the PDA 1252 you can
analyze circuit energy consumption and demand.
With
this information, curtail your peak loads
by sequencing equipment startups to reduce peak
demand.
You
can also trend PF distribution and current imbalance
to reduce energy costs by identifying inefficient
power systems. Increase reliability to bring down
maintenance expenses, avoid costly downtime and
equipment damages. |

Superior
Mechanical Design
The unit was designed using a watertight outdoor
rated enclosure. All terminations are additionally
watertight. This allows the analyzer to be used
in harsh environments or outside the incoming
utility feed to building. The unit can be powered
using line voltage or through a separate line
cord.
Two Models
Low
Voltage - PDA1252-1A
This version of the unit offers a 1 amp secondary
input for low voltage applications. This allows
the unit to work with up to 600
Volts Phase to Phase. There are 3 clamp on probes
available for 100 amps, 1000 amps and 3000 amps
primary circuits.
Hi-Voltage
– PDA1252-5A
This version of the unit takes a direct 5 amp
input for use with test leads on existing hi-voltage
installed current transformers or with 5 amp
rated probes. This allows the unit to be used
as a circuit analyzer as well as a portable
power quality monitor. Using this mode, the
unit can be used as a circuit analyzer allowing
users to verify CT and PT connection wiring
to meters and protective relaying equipment.
Power
Line or Power Port Power Supply
The PDA 1252 is designed to be powered using
two different methods. The first method allows
the unit to power from a 208 - 480 V AC Phase
B–C Voltage line connection. The unit
also utilizes a wall plug for remotely powering
the unit. The wall plug allows the unit to be
used in conjunction with a UPS to remain powered
through power outages. |
Advanced
Touch Screen Display
The PDA 1252 utilizes a touch screen display
that allows real-time data to be viewed easily.
Stored logs and recordings are viewed with a
simple RS232 port.

Charting, Graphing & Analysis
Communicator
EXT’s charting and graphing
functions allow users to easily
access any desired data and
provide fast and simple analysis.
Getting the data you need quickly
is as important as collecting
the data in the first place.
Communicator EXT excels at providing
data easily and quickly. Data
analysis features include:
|
-
Tabular Data Format with Direct
Microsoft Excel® Compliance
-
6-Pen Charting and Graphing
-
Circular or XY Chart Formats
-
Max./Min. Values Printed Directly
on Plot
-
Unlimited Zoom & Pan
-

Waveform Records with Comprehensive
Data Analysis Features
View
stored waveforms on events caused
by power quality problems, faults,
transients and many other conditions.
Using Communicator EXT, you
can:
-
View & Superimpose Multiple
Waveforms
-
Zoom & Pan Events
-
Place hash marks directly
on waveform graphs to calculate
delta time & differing
event durations.
-
Conduct harmonic analysis
on waveform data using harmonic
magnitudes, peak value and
RMS readings per cycle.

Power Quality Charting and Graphing
Communicator
EXT allows you to calculate
power quality on a scatter graph
providing users with CBEMA plotting
information. The CBEMA plot
gives definition to the severity
of events and their effect on
equipment. If many events fall
outside the CBEMA tolerances,
they may be damaging the monitored
equipment. The software provides
3D plots and histograms with
frequency and severity. |

ODBC
Databases for All Collected Data
In today’s information age,
collecting data is simple. Managing
data is the task at hand. Communicator
EXT uses an ODBC database structure.
ODBC structure means that the
data is easily accessible by most
other 3rd party applications.
This allows data to be managed
as well as collected. The database
also auto configures itself so
that the users do not have to
be versed with database knowledge
to maintain the data. |
| |
Programming
and Configuration
Communicator
EXT also allows users to program,
configure and optimize metering
systems to meet the exact application
needed. Unlike most other systems,
Communicator EXT was painstakingly
designed to make programming
and configuration simple and
easy to use. This takes much
of the guesswork out of configuring
a meter and gets the system
up and running simply and quickly.
