SINGLE-PHASE POWER AND QUALITY ANALYZER

The C.A 8230 is designed for tradesmen and installers working in the
construction industry and maintenance departments. The broad range of
measurements it provides also makes it ideal for technical and
technological teaching.

Extremely easy to use, it is suitable for testing electrical installations,
especially if they are equipped with systems based on power electronics.
Suitable for use on the ground, it can also be used on a tabletop, thanks
to its retractable support.

User-friendly, it has a large graphic screen and automatically recognises
the type of sensor connected.

■ Voltage & current:

From measurement of the real effective instant
display of AC+DC at the period to peak values
and overall harmonics rates, the instrument also
provides instant display of the waveform.
Measurement of short term Flicker is also available.

■ Complete analysis of power and energy:

In single-phase and balanced three-phase, all necessary
and useful measurements enable the user to simply obtain
a complete analysis of power and energy.

■ Harmonics up to order 50:

The C.A 8230 enables the various values to be measured up to order
50 RMS value, fundamental %, mini/maxi in single-phase only.
Additional advantage: the expert mode enables direction
of harmonics to be determined.

■ Recording period up to several days:

All values measured by the instrument can be recorded
over a period of up to several days. The Inrush mode
allows us to analyse and display at engine start-up signal period.

■ Personalised setting of alarms:

Alarms can be entirely set by the user and enable each event to be captured.

Geared firmly towards electrical engineering and testing of rotating machines, the C.A 8220 is designed for
maintenance and testing teams.

Equipped with a liquid crystal segment screen, compact and shockproof, its user interface ergonomics make it
easy and pleasant to handle via intuitive use.

Just like the C.A 8230, the C.A 8220 makes it possible to obtain an instant image of the main characteristics of
a single-phase or a balanced three-phase network.

In addition, it measures all features necessary for testing rotating machines.

Accurate, thanks to a broad range of sensors, it covers measurements from several milliamps to several kilo
amps.

THE ENGINE MAINTENANCE AND POWER ANALYZER

■ Rotation speed: For predictive maintenance, it

is necessary to regularly test rotation speed on
rotating machines. The C.A 8220, an all-in-

one instrument, meets this requirement
simply and effectively.

■ Temperature: Nowadays rotating engines and

machines are equipped with temperature
probes that are easily accessible on a terminal
board. By simply connecting the C.A 8220 to

this terminal board, it is possible to directly
measure the engine’s internal temperature.
