The WT5000 is a versatile platform that delivers extraordinary precision and exceptional performance for the most demanding applications. Equipped with 7 user swappable and reconfigurable input elements plus 4 motor channels, the WT5000 is an ideal instrument for both electrical and mechanical power and efficiency measurements. Now listed as an accepted device for SPEC Power® testing and IEC harmonic and flicker standards. Its highly responsive touchscreen, intuitive menu operations, and out of the box software solution make the WT5000 an ideal instrument for your testing needs.
Unmatched Accuracy
The WT5000 is the world’s most accurate precision power analyzer with a basic power accuracy of ±0.03%. Its accuracy specifications are guaranteed from 1% to 130% of the selected voltage and current ranges. With minimum influence of low power factor (0.02% of apparent power) the unit is also accurate at large phase shifts and frequencies.
- AC power accuracy: 0.01% of reading + 0.02% of range
- DC power accuracy: 0.02% of reading + 0.05% of range
- 10 MS/s 18 bit ADC
Multi-channel Measurements
Measure from up to 7 different power phases at 10 MS/s (18 bits). The high resolution, 10.1 inch WXGA display allows split screen viewing of up to 7 waveforms and can display up to 12 pages of diverse measurement parameters, making it ideal for efficiency tests of inverter driven motors, renewable energy technologies and traction applications like pumps, fans and electric vehicles. Measurements are also displayed in vector format or trending in time.
Intuitive Operation
Operable by touch and/or hardware hot-keys independently, the WT5000 offers a seamless and intuitive experience that makes connecting, configuring and measuring easier than ever before. The 10.1 inch WXGA touchscreen delivers excellent noise immunity even in high noise environments such as motors and inverters.
Advanced Filtering
In addition to low pass frequency filters and line filters, the WT5000 features advanced filtering capabilities that provide unprecedented control to analyze even the toughest of waveforms with precision.
- Synchronization source filter: Instead of synchronizing to zero crossings, users can select any specific point of the synchronization source signal.
- Enhanced frequency filter: Allows users to simultaneously measure fundamental and switching frequencies without influencing any other parameter.
- Digital Parallel Path filters: Supported by a high frequency anti-aliasing filter, two separate line filters for normal and harmonic measurements ensures accuracy without aliasing in wide band and harmonic measurements. Users can limit the number of harmonic orders to eliminate attenuation in low bandwidth measurements.
Advanced Harmonic Analysis
Evaluate and compare input and output harmonics of inverters, motors or power conditioners up to the 500th order. The WT5000 allows users to not only measure harmonics and power simultaneously but also offers side by side comparison of harmonics from two different input sources.
The effects of noise and aliasing are minimized by antialiasing and line filters with Digital Parallel Path technology allowing simultaneous power analysis of wide band and narrow band components.
Harmonics Regulation Test
Combined with the /G7 option and IEC Harmonic /Flicker measurement software, the WT5000 measured harmonic data can be saved into a PC and tested according to IEC regulations. To support large equipment over 16 A/phase (IEC61000-3-12) the CT200 current sensor model can be used.
- Harmonics: EN61000-3-2, IEC61000-3-2, EN61000-3-12, IEC61000-3-12 and JIS C 61000-3-2
Numeric and Waveform Synchronized Data
The waveform data is streamed without any gaps up to 2 MS/s and is synchronized with the numerical data. Abnormal findings in numerical data can be directly linked and be evaluated in the waveform data. For example, one can find numeric parameter variations caused by the influence of imposed high-frequency noise.
Custom Triggers and Computations
Define and use event triggers and custom computations as per application needs. The event trigger function allows users to set limits to capture readings that fall within or outside a specific range of power, current or other parameters. Users can also define and use up to 20 different expressions for custom calculations. Data that meets the trigger conditions can be stored, printed, or saved to a USB memory device.
