Key Features Recently Added to the Dash 8XPM | |
EN50160 Reporting: EN50160 is a European standard that defines the main characteristics of voltage at the customer’s supply terminals. This feature allows the user to make power monitoring recordings with pre-defined set-up defined by EN 50160 and report them using AstroPower Review. |
Flicker Meter Reporting: Flicker is a term used to describe a random or continuous voltage fluctuations no more than 10% lower or higher than the normal voltage waveform. This feature allows the user to record and monitor short and long term flicker measurements as defined by International (IEC 61000-4-15) and European (EN 50160) electrical standards. |
AstroPower Review ITIC Plot Reporting: The ITIC (Information Technology Industry Council) plot describes a 120V/60HZ AC input voltage envelope, which typically can be tolerated by most Information Technology Equipment. This feature allows the user to generate an ITIC plot report with D8XPM data using AstroPower Review. |
Consumption Analysis Tab: Absolute, Active and Reactive energy are now reported in real-time.Time Start “Trigger” Feature: This convenient feature allows the user to set a specific start recording time and recording length. |
Snapshot Event Zoom: The user can now zoom in to critical portions of transient events by adjusting the time and phase leg voltage/current parameters. |
Improved Interface: This upgrade provides larger icons and an improved touch screen interface for easy setup, recording and review of critical power monitoring data. |
