NEW accessory: A 1398 PQA


Power quality analysers (PQA) are one of those instruments, which require many accessories to function, depending on specific requirements for the selected measuring procedure or, more broadly, measuring application. The best example are probably current clamps, which have to be able to measure currents ranging from a few milliamperes and up to several kiloamperes, and preferably with the “smart clamp” (the PQA automatically recognizes them) feature.
Like the new 1398 PQA current clamp that is intended for secondary measurements (on the secondary side of a current transformer) and can measure currents up to 20 A. It boasts excellent accuracy and very low phase angle error and the ubiquitous smart clamp feature.
Intended applications:
  • Power factor measurement (as a part of calculating compensation – size of capacitor banks).
  • Power/energy efficiency measurement.
  • Power/energy measurement.
  • Accuracy measurement of kWh electricity measurements.
  • Current distortion measurement.
  • Inrush current measurement.
  • Functional testing of appliances, machines etc. 

Technical characteristics:
  • Nominal current (INom): 10 A
  • Nominal current range: 5 % INom … 200 % INom
  • Maximal current (IMax): 20 A
  • Crest factor @ nominal current: 4,0
  • Peak current: 40 A
  • Bandwidth: 40 Hz … 400 Hz
  • Uncertainty: ± (0,5 % of reading ± 10 mA)
  • Phase error: ± ≤0,45° (50 – 60 Hz)

Dimensions & mechanical data:
  • Current sensor type: D
  • Length of connection cable: 1,2 m
  • Jaw opening: 13 mm
  • Maximum conductor sizes: fi < 13 mm
  • Length of connection cable: 1,2 m
  • Dimensions (W x H x L): 27 mm x 52 mm x 170 mm
  • Weight: 340 g
