DPA 500N - FULL-COMPLIANT SINGLE PHASE HARMONICS AND FLICKER ANALYZER

Harmonics and interharmonics are caused by modern electronic power conditioning modules. Such, mostly non-linear,
modules to control loads and to reduce power consumption is the source of voltage at unwanted frequencies superposed on
the supply voltage.
Voltage fluctuations caused by varying load currents may influence the luminance or the spectral distribution of lighting
systems. The impression of the unsteadiness of visual sensation induced by this light stimulus is called flicker.
The DPA500N harmonics and flicker analyzer is used for single phase applications.

PARAMETRY TECHNICZNE

BENEFITS

THE FULLY COMPLIANT HARMONICS AND FLICKER
ANALYZER

The DPA 500N is a fully compliant analyzer for harmonics
and flicker as per the latest IEC/EN 61000-3-2, IEC/EN
61000-3-3 and JIS C 61000-3-2 requirements. It follows
the design specifications as per IEC/EN 61000-4-7:2002
and Am.1:2008 (for Class A instruments) and IEC/EN
61000-4-15:2010.
Based on a real-time kernel and equipped with its own
harddisk it allows to record the measuring data
continuously without any gaps or overlapping. The
rectangular measurement window is synchronized to each
group of 10 or 12 cycles of the mains supply frequency
(50Hz or 60Hz) by means of a digital PLL (Phase Lock
Loop). A wide-range current input (up to 50A) avoids loss
of measured data due to range switching that would occur
when using different shunt resistors.
The classification of the measurement can be selected at
any time, before or after the measurement has been
performed. During all measurements the AC supply
voltage is measured simultaneously with the current.
The built-in flicker impedance, which is automatically
selected when doing flicker measurement, makes the
DPA 500N a complete single-box unit for both harmonics
and flicker analysis.
By means of an external current clamp (optional) the
current range can be extended up to 140Arms and more.

OTHER MODELS

DPA 500 HARMONICS AND FLICKER ANALYZER SERIES

EM TEST offers two models of analyzers for harmonics and
flicker for single phase applications (DPA 500N) and
three-phase applications (DPA 503). The three-phase
analyzer DPA503 can be used for single phase analysis as
well.

AUXILIARY DEVICES

ACS 500N3 - SINGLE PHASE AC VOLTAGE SOURCE 3KVA

The ACS 500N3 single phase AC voltage source is used to
provide a pure AC supply voltage for harmonics and flicker
analysis as recommended by IEC/EN 61000-3-2, IEC/EN
61000-3-3 and JIS C 61000-3-2. It offers a rated power of
3kVA and the output voltage ranges up to 300V. This AC
voltage source is used for low-power applications.
The ACS 500N3 AC voltage source is controlled by
dpa.control.

SOFTWARE

DPA.CONTROL - THE CONTROL AND ANALYSING
SOFTWARE FOR HARMONICS AND FLICKER

dpa.control is the software tool needed for the operation
of the harmonics and flicker analysing system. It offers all
features to control the DPA 500N, to upload the recorded
measuring data and for the classification and analysis. It
includes analysis as per the latest standards as well as
procedures following the former standard requirements.
An easy Fail/Pass function allows fast analysis while
detailed data is available for extended analysis and EUT
evaluation purposes.
dpa.control offers a powerful documentation capability
with direct export to Word.
