Fluke 6100A

Provides a highly accurate, scalable system for calibrating power measurement tools.
 

The most accurate, comprehensive and flexible source of electrical power signals

Deregulation of the power industry and the growth of the global power trading market have resulted in a great deal of variability in power quality. Undesirable phenomena such as harmonic distortion, noise and transients, and sags and swells are now common on power supply networks. This in turn is driving the need to make accurate, consistent measurements of power and power quality. Today's measurement technology is hampered in this effort by a lack of effective, accurate standards to calibrate power measurement instruments.

With the release of the 6100A Power Quality Standard, Fluke Precision Measurement provides a highly accurate, scalable system for calibrating power measurement tools to meet the new demands of the global market.

The First Truly Universal Power Standard

With the Fluke 6100A Electrical Power Standard, power and power quality measurement devices can be checked, verified, and calibrated with one highly accurate instrument. Undesirable phenomena can be reliably generated individually or simultaneously to determine the ability of these devices to detect and measure it under actual conditions. It provides an accurate, controllable source of:

• Pure sinusoidal electrical power
• Harmonically distorted electrical power
• User definable sags and swells
• User definable flicker 

The 6100A is also configurable from one to four phases, allowing users to create a system that matches their needs, but is also easily expanded. Consisting of a master unit, which provides the first phase and auxiliary units that provide up to three additional phases controlled through the master unit, the Fluke 6100A is configurable to the differing power voltages and frequencies that have been adopted globally, enabling the user to select relevant values for the measurements being made. The Windows® user interface provides familiar commands and settings, reducing the training required for user fluency.

Taken together, the 6100A represents the first integrated system on the market which provides users the ability to guarantee the accuracy of the power measurement tools they design, manufacture, verify and calibrate, or use to make measurements. It is the ideal standard for power meters, power factor meters, power quality analyzers, power recorders, and power meters with quality measurement capabilities.

The 6100A provides the signals to allow this process to be completed effectively, quickly and easily. More importantly, it ensures that the process of validation is completed thoroughly, accurately and with all measurements being traceable to national standards.As an Electrical Power Standard, the 6100A has been designed to produce a comprehensive array of electrical power signal types to a very high degree of accuracy. This can be achieved over 1, 2, 3 or 4 phases independently and simultaneously depending on system configuration.
