Fluke introduces intuitive logger
17 Sep 2013
The 1730 three-phase energy logger from Fluke is designed to simplify the discovery of electrical energy waste.
The Fluke 1730 enables a broader category of maintenance professionals to gather energy data, while the accompanying Fluke Energy Analyze software scales from the analysis and reporting needs of the facility manager to the advanced analytical requirements of electrical engineers.
Even well-run facilities can experience energy waste, most commonly through equipment and system inefficiencies or by operating at expensive times of the day.
The Fluke 1730 negates the need for expensive power quality analysers operated by engineers with advanced training, whose cost and skill barriers have made energy audits impractical for many facilities, Fluke suggests.
The company states that the 1730 is a streamlined energy logging tool with a straightforward, intuitive design, allowing technicians to carry out load studies and energy logging right out of the box.
The compact Fluke 1730 energy logger conducts key measurements of voltage, current, power, and power factor to identify areas of energy waste and all measured values are logged automatically and can be reviewed during logging.
Data logged by the 1730 can be imported into the Fluke Energy Analyze software for further processing and archiving.
The software allows users to analyse energy or load profiles, including zoom-in and zoom-out on details, add comments, pictures, and other information to data, overlay different logging sessions, create reports and export measurement results.
