Megger MPQ1000

The Megger MPQ1000 Basic Kit 8 Channel 3-Phase Handheld Power Quality Analyzer with Standard Accessories (Current Clamps Not Included) features an advanced handheld 3-phase analyzer. It is a highly intuitive analyzer that delivers unmatched capability in a smart ergonomic platform. View RMS data, waveforms, demand data, phase angles, harmonics, unbalance, flicker and more in real time with the MPQ1000 scope mode and DVM mode. When data needs to be recorded, the MPQ1000 record verification will automatically identify the current clamps (sold separately), recognize their range and verify the unit is connected properly. Simply connect it and push the record button. The MPQ1000 can record for extended periods of time because of its massive memory. It utilizes an SD card, which makes expanding the memory as easy as installing a new SD card. The recorded data can be viewed on the MPQ1000 color VGA display or the data can be transferred to the high power Megger PQ Power Quality Analysis software via USB cable, USB stick, Ethernet or directly from the SD card.

The MPQ1000 handheld power quality analyzer has features which make it ideal for troubleshooting, compliance testing and energy audits. Auto CT identification eliminates potential errors due to wrong CT range settings. The analyzer will automatically identify the CT (sold separately) and verify it is connected correctly. This means you can be confident you will have the correct data.

Behind the sturdy exterior is an intelligence that is focused on smart testing, with industry-leading software that enables you to minimize errors while testing, and quickly and easily analyze your results. For example, you can create your own company standard templates that can be stored and compared, as well as check your results against compliance standards. This saves time, effort and costs, making your entire testing process more efficient.

The software automatically creates custom configurations based on the issue you are troubleshooting, whether it be equipment tripping out, transformer or motor issues, EN50160 analysis or general PQ analysis. This ensures the analyzer will capture the power quality phenomenon that causes those problems. You do not have to be a PQ expert to carry out a comprehensive analysis.
