Three-Phase Power
Quality Analyzers
Pinpoint power problems
faster, safer and in greater detail
The Fluke 434 and 433 three-phase power quality
analyzers help you locate, predict, prevent and troubleshoot problems in power distribution systems.
These easy-to-use handhelds are a “must have” for
any person who maintains or troubleshoots three
phase distribution. The new IEC standards for
flicker and power quality are built right in to take
the guess work out of monitoring.

System-Monitor: Multi-parameter power
quality health check on one display
A single push of the MONITOR button delivers a
single dashboard display of rms voltage, harmonics, flicker, interruptions, rapid voltage
changes, swells, unbalance and frequency. The
dashboard is updated live, showing compliance
of each parameter to EN50160 limits or your own
limits. Color-coded bars clearly show which
parameters are inside (pass) or outside limits
(fail). During a Monitor session, you can easily
drill down to more detail of any parameter and
view and capture its trend for a report.
