WARNING
Always connect the powermeter input (including clamp) to the
secondary side of the breaker. On the secondary side of a breaker,
even if the lines are shorted the breaker can trip and prevent an
accident. On the primary side, however, the current capacity may be
large, and in the event of a short-circuit there may be a serious
accident.
The maximum input voltage and current for this unit depend on the
input unit being used. Do not apply an input exceeding the maximum
input voltage and current specified for the input unit. Exceeding the
maximum input voltage or current could damage the unit or cause a
serious accident.
Before turning on the power, make sure that the voltage of the power
supply being used matches the supply voltage indicated on the rear
panel of the unit. If an attempt is made to use an improper supply
voltage, there is danger of damage to this unit and of life-threatening
risk to the operator.
The power switch has a microgap construction, and it is therefore
essential to use it close to a power outlet. When the unit is not in
use, and while making connections to the circuit being tested, isolate
the unit electrically from the power supply, for example by removing
the power cord plug from the outlet.
To avoid electrical accidents and to maintain the safety
specifications of this instrument, connect the power cord provided
only to a 3-contact (two-conductor + ground) outlet.
Do not remove the case of the unit. There are components inside
carrying high voltages or becoming hot, and this could cause an
electric shock accident.
Do not use the unit where it may be exposed to corrosive or
explosive gases. The unit may be damaged, or explosion may occur.
・ Should the unit emit smoke, or a strange smell or strange sound,
immediately stop testing operations, power the unit off, and remove
the power cord from the outlet, shut off the circuit being tested,
disconnect the unit, and consult your HIOKI representative.
Continued use of the unit could lead to fire or electric shock
accidents.
・ Do not insert foreign objects through the ventilation holes in the top
and bottom of the case. Particularly if metallic, liquid, or combustible
substances get inside the case, this may lead to fire or electric
shock, or to malfunction. When using several devices at the same
time, do not stack them.
・ Never allow the ventilation holes in the top and bottom covers to
become blocked while using this unit. Blocking the ventilation will
cause internal temperature to rise, possibly resulting in fire or
damage to the equipment.
・ To prevent electric shock, do not allow the unit to become wet and
do not use the unit when your hands are wet.
・ This unit is designed for indoor use and can be safely used at
temperatures ranging from 0℃ to 40℃ and should be operated at
80% RH or less.
・ This unit is not constructed to be waterproof or dustproof, so do
not use it in a very dusty environment or in one where it will get
wet.
・ Do not store or use the unit where it will be exposed to direct
sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, or condensation. If
exposed to such conditions, the unit may be damaged, the insulation
may deteriorate, and the unit may no longer satisfy its
specifications.
・ To avoid damage to the unit, do not subject the equipment to
vibrations or shocks during transport or handling. Be especially
careful to avoid dropping the equipment.
・ Do not place the unit on an unstable stand, or in an uneven
location. It may fall to the ground, or fall over, and either of these
events may lead to malfunction or accident.
・ Do not use the unit near any device which generates strong
electromagnetic radiation or near a static electrical charge, as these
may cause errors.
・ Avoid treading on or pinching the cable so as not to damage the
cable sheaths.
・ When unplugging the power cord from the power receptacle or from
the unit, grasp the plug, not the cord, in order to avoid damaging the
cable.
・ To avoid damaging the sensor cables or probes, do not bend or pull
・ All options for this unit are factory-fitted, but it is also possible to add
options at a later date after purchase. In this case, however, it is necessary
for the unit to be returned to HIOKI headquarters.
・ With the appropriate combination of direct connection input units, this unit
can function as either an AC power meter or dual AC/DC power meter.
When used together with clamp input units, depending on whether the clamp
sensor used is for AC or DC, this unit can function as either an AC power
meter or dual AC/DC power meter. When used as an AC power meter, it is
not possible to measure a DC component superimposed on the AC signal
(half-wave rectification, or full-wave rectification upper and lower excluded
waveform).
・ Note that limits are specified for the range in which voltage and current level
accuracies are guaranteed.
・ In order to assure accurate measurements, allow this unit to warm up for at
least 1 hour before using it.
・ This power meter uses the calculations indicated in the specifications in
order to determine apparent power (S), power factor (
λ
), and reactive power
(Q) on the basis of the measured voltage (U), current (I), and active power
(P). The values displayed by this power meter may differ from those
produced by other testers that are based on different principles of operation
or testers that use different calculations.
・ Display of a polarity symbol (-) together with reactive power (Q), power
factor (λ) or phase angle (φ) occurs only when TYPE1 is selected as the
calculation type, and indicates that current is delayed with respect to
voltage. For reasons related to circuit design, the polarity symbol is
displayed even when input is "0".
・ Due to measuring error or a disproportionate load, the effective power may
exceed the apparent power, resulting in a power factor of 1 or more. In such
a case, this system is designed to make the apparent power equal to the
effective power.
・ There are two sorts of measurement: using analog calculation by the input
unit or by digital calculation using the harmonic analysis/flicker
measurement function, and since these have entirely different principles of
measurement, frequency range, and accuracy, and as a result the final
measured values may be different.
・ Accurate measurement may be impossible in locations subject to strong
external magnetic fields, such as transformers and high-current conductors,
or in locations subject to strong external electric fields, such as radio
transmission equipment.
・ For the current measurement of the 9600 AC/DC DIRECT INPUT UNIT, the
DC-CT (current transformer) method is used, so after measuring a large
current, there may be a very slight residual offset signal. The offset signal
produces the largest error effect in the minimum ranges; in this case, shut
off the current input, and carry out degaussing (DMAG).
・ The 9600, 9601, and 9602 active power measurement units operate with an
auto-zero circuit at 2.442 kHz. For this reason, an input signal with a
frequency of 2.442 kHz will result in a periodically fluctuating display
indication.
・ When the input is less than a certain level of measurement range, depending
on using the input unit, the display value is forced to zero. See the
specifications of the input unit to be used.
・ When measuring a high frequency voltage to earth (for example the
secondary side of an inverter), errors may occur in the measurement values.
・ To maintain the measurement accuracy of the unit, bear the following
cooling measures in mind:
Do not obstruct the ventilation holes
Keep away from sources of heat
If rack mounted, install a cooling fan
Do not stack up the device.
Do not place anything on the device.
・ This unit switches the power supply voltage automatically. Voltage
fluctuations of 10% from the rated supply voltage are taken into account.
・ This unit has no external fuse. Thus if the unit does not operate when the
power switch is turned on and power is supplied, there is a fault. Disconnect
the power cord and measurement lines, and contact your dealer or HIOKI
representative.
・ This instruments may cause interference if used in residential areas.Such use
must be avoided unless the user takes special measures to reduce
electromagnetic emissions to prevent interference to the reception of radio
and television broadcasts.
The 3193 POWER HiTESTER is a power meter that can test any type of
line ranging from single-phase lines to three-phase four-wire lines.
Based on the voltage, current, and active power measurements, this unit
calculates and displays reactive power, apparent power, power factor, phase
angle, and efficiency. It further has a wide range of measurement functions
including frequency measurement function, peak measurement function,
current integration, active power integration, analog outputs, monitor outputs,
and harmonic analysis/flicker function (option).
The 3193 POWER HiTESTER features a safe design that complies with the
IEC61010-1 safety standard.
(2) Capable of measuring power on all types of power lines
This single power meter is capable of measuring power on all types of power
lines, ranging from single-phase lines to three-phase four-wire lines by
installing the input units.
(3) Simultaneous measurement of multiple systems
Up to six input channels can be installed, so that for example, a single unit
can simultaneously measure the input power and output power of a threephase inverter.
By combinations with the optional external input units, the input power and
output power of an inverter and the output of a motor can be measured and
calculated with a single unit. Further, by using the efficiency calculation
function, the efficiency and overall efficiency of up to three points can be
measured simultaneously with one unit.
(4) Wide current measurement range
With a direct connection input unit, and no external current transformer, it is
possible to measure a maximum of 50 A rms. The internal current
transformer design keeps the losses in the current measurement meter
extremely low. Using a current sensor input unit, existing current sensors can
be used to measure up to 500 A.
(5) High accuracy
The basic accuracy of±0.1% rdg.±0.1%f.s. is high.
(6) Wide frequency range: DC and 0.5 Hz to 1 MHz (using optional
9600
The wide frequency response supports the evaluation of inverter-motor
systems, inverter fluorescent lighting systems, ultrasound motors, switching
power supplies, and so on.
AC/DC DIRECT INPUT UNIT
)
(7) Built-in low pass filter
The cut-off frequency can be selected from three values. This function allows
an inverter fundamental frequency to be extracted, and also supports data
exchange with conventional devices.
(8) Three types of calculation expression selectable
Three types of calculation for apparent power and reactive power can be
selected, to support compatibility with conventional devices.
It is possible to measure peak values of a voltage or current waveform.
Also, using the peak hold function, motor surge current peak values, and the
peak values of effective values can be measured.
(10) Separate integration values for each polarity
For current and active power, positive, negative, and total integrated values
are provided.
Each channel can be integrated separately.
(11) Three averaging functions
Time average, sliding average, or exponential average can be selected as the
averaging mode.
(12) Three-channel frequency measurement function
The unit has a three-channel frequency measurement function, allowing
separate frequency measurement when multiple systems are being tested.
(13) Analog signal input from an external device (using optional 9603
EXTERNAL SIGNAL INPUT UNIT)
It is possible to input a separate analog output (or pulse signal) from the
system undergoing power measurement, for easy on-screen conversion.
For example, inputting the analog outputs from a torque meter or rotation
counter enables the converted torque or rotation values to be shown on the
screen. The power can also be computed from the torque or rotation values.

(14) Harmonic analysis/flicker measurement function (option)
The harmonic analysis function can analyze up to the 50th harmonic of the
voltage, current, or active power waveform, for fundamental frequencies
from 5 Hz to 440 Hz.
(15) High visibility color LCD
The color LCD screen has a wide viewing angle, and allows simultaneous
display of different information without requiring screen switching, giving an
at-a-glance grasp of the overall state of the measured system. In combination
with the optional harmonic analysis/flicker function, it is possible to use
different colors to distinguish harmonic analysis graphs and waveforms.
The built-in floppy disk drive facilitates data saving when required, and
automatic saving at preset times.
It is also possible to save the unit settings and reload them to restore the
previous state. Upgrades of the unit are also supported.

These indications appear on the screen below the channel number, the
voltage indication on the left and the current indication on the right, so that
even a "PEAK" state can be detected even for channels not currently

NOTE
These indications are only valid within the range of the maximum input
voltage and current for each input unit.
Always connect the powermeter input (including current sensor) to
the secondary side of the breaker. On the secondary side of a
breaker, even if the lines are shorted the breaker can trip and
prevent an accident. On the primary side, however, the current
capacity may be large, and in the event of a short-circuit there
may be a serious accident.
Once the connections are made, do not touch the input terminals,
and the voltage and current transformers. There are exposed live
parts, and a danger of electric shock or serious accident.
Check that the terminals are tightened securely. If the connections
should become detached, there is a danger of a short-circuit or
electric shock accident. Additionally, if the connections are not
properly tightened, the contact resistance increases, which may
lead to the generation of heat, or fire.
The maximum input voltage and current for this unit depend on the
input unit being used. Do not apply an input exceeding the
maximum input voltage and current specified for the input unit.
Exceeding the maximum input voltage or current could damage the
unit or cause a serious accident.
In order to prevent electric shock and short-circuit accidents, shut
off the power to the line to be measured before connecting the
direct connection voltage and current cables to the terminals.
Be sure to connect the voltage input terminals, current input terminals
correctly. Measurement which is attempted with the wiring connected
incorrectly may cause damage to the unit or a short-circuit.
To avoid electrical accidents and to maintain the safety
specifications of this instrument, connect the power cord provided
only to a 3-contact (two-conductor + ground) outlet.
When using an external voltage transformer, do not leave the
secondary side short-circuited. If a voltage is applied to the primary
while the secondary is short-circuited, a high current will flow
through the secondary, which could lead to fire or malfunction.
When using an external current transformer, do not leave the
secondary side open-circuit. If a current flows through the primary
while the secondary is open-circuit, this can generate a high voltage
on the secondary, which is extremely dangerous.
・ To avoid electrical accidents, use wiring with more than adequate
current carrying capacity and voltage insulation properties.
・ When the power is turned off, do not apply voltage or current to the
voltage input terminal, current input terminal, or clamp sensor. Doing
so may damage the unit.
NOTE
・ For 3P3W, 3V3A measurement, the active power values for each channel are
found from the voltages between lines and the currents on each line, and
have no individual significance.
・ If the maximum values of the voltage or current on the lines being measured
exceed the measurement range of this unit, use an external voltage transformer
(PT) or current transformer (CT). In this case, by setting the corresponding PT
and CT ratios with the scaling function of this unit, you can directly read off
the measured values. See Section 4.5, "Setting the Scaling."
・ For combinations 1P3W and above, there are restrictions on the
combinations of input units. See Section 4.1, "Setting the Wiring Mode."
・ When using an external voltage transformer (PT) or current transformer
(CT), its precision, phase accuracy, frequency characteristics, and so on, may
greatly affect the error in the measured power value. Use transformers with
adequate frequency characteristics and small phase error for the frequency
band of the line being measured.
・ When using a voltage transformer (PT) or current transformer (CT), ground
Before using the instrument the first time, verify that it operates normally to
ensure that the no damage occurred during storage or shipping. If you find
any damage, contact your dealer or Hioki representative.

CAUTION
To avoid electrical accidents and to maintain the safety
specifications of this instrument, connect the power cord provided
only to a 3-contact (two-conductor + ground) outlet.
The power switch has a microgap construction, and it is therefore
essential to use it close to a power outlet. When the unit is not in
use, and while making connections to the circuit being tested, isolate
the unit electrically from the power supply, for example by removing
the power cord plug from the outlet.
・ Should the unit emit smoke, or a strange smell or strange sound,
immediately stop testing operations, power the unit off, and remove the
power cord from the outlet, shut off the circuit being tested,
disconnect the unit, and consult your HIOKI representative. Continued
use of the unit could lead to fire or electric shock accidents.
・ When the power is turned off, do not apply voltage or current to the
voltage input terminal, current input terminal, or clamp sensor. Doing
so may damage the unit.
1. Confirm that the voltage of the power supply being used matches the
supply voltage indicated on the rear panel of the unit.
2. Confirm that the power switch on the front panel is off.
3. Connect the supplied power cord to the AC inlet on the rear pane.
4. Connect the power cord to a grounded three-pin outlet. If no grounded
outlet is available, use the supplied ground adapter.
5. Turn on the power switch on the front panel.
6. The unit starts the self-test. It is completed after about 10 seconds.

Self-Test
In the self test, the following tests are carried out, then after about 10
seconds the measurement screen automatically appears.
If there is a problem in the settings, this screen remains displayed and the
unit stops. If this happens again after powering off and on, the unit has
developed a fault. Stop measurement, and shut off the line being measured,
then power off the unit. Disconnect the test wiring and the power cord.

This unit is designed to have low measurement losses, and an extremely
small effect on the power measurement values, but the following variant
connection methods may be used to further reduce the effect of measurement
losses.
(1) When the voltage input is connected to the power supply side, the
measurement includes losses from the input resistance of the current input
terminals, but this yields the minimum measurement losses when the
measured voltage is high and the measured current is low.

If the display data was being held when power was lost, all of the data that
was being held is not retained.
Integration data ・ Manual integration
A power failure is treated as a zero input and zero elapsed time; after the
power is restored integration restarts.
・ Timer integration
A power failure is treated as a zero input and zero elapsed time; after the
power is restored integration restarts, and stops when the timer time has
elapsed.
・ Real-time control integration
If the power failure starts and ends while the unit remains on standby, there
is no effect.
If a power failure starts while the unit is on standby, and ends after the set
start time, integration starts from the time when the power is restored. In this
case the interval from the set start time until the power is restored is treated
as a zero input. The elapsed time is shorter than time from start to stop.
A power failure during integration operation is treated in the same way as
for timer integration.
This unit can have up to six input unit channels, allowing a single unit to

(1) Setting the Time Average (AV-T)
The time average function sequentially sums the data values obtained during
the time interval (interval control time, timer control time, or real-time
control time), and divides by the number of samples. This can be used, for
example, while integrating at particular intervals, to output the average of
some other measurement value during those intervals.
・ The time average requires a setting of an interval control time, timer control
time, or real-time control time.
・ Operation with the START/STOP key also affects integration. Therefore,
after completion of averaging or following forced termination, press the
SHIFT key, then press the START/STOP key to reset integration.
・ When used in conjunction with a timer control time or real-time control
time, when the set time elapses the overall average value is displayed and
held, which the unit stops. When this hold state is ended, the unit returns to
normal measurement.
・ For the time average function, floppy disk and printer settings are also

・ In the hold state, it is not possible to change settings.
・ In the auto-ranging, the range when the
HOLD
key is pressed is fixed.
・ In the hold state, external output values (for floppy disk or printer, through
the GP-IB or RS-232C interface, or D/A output) are the values displayed on
the screen. When combined with the interval timer, the display is updated at
the specified interval. In this case the previous value is held until the next
interval time.
・ For timer and real-time control, the display is updated at the stop time, and
then held.
・ The HOLD key operates at any time, including prior to and during timer
operation.
Combination with external control signal
When the unit is in the held state, the display can be held or updated using
an external control signal to the EXT. A/D START terminal of the OUT
(ANALOG WAVE D/A), EXT. CONT connector on the rear panel.
When the peak hold function is activated, only items exceeding the previous
maximum value are updated continuously. For example, this can be used for
measuring transient currents in an electric motor.

first stop the peak hold function, then change the range.
・ The maximum value refers to the maximum absolute value. For example,
after an input of "+50 W", an input of "-60 W" causes the display to be
updated, because the absolute value of "-60 W" is greater.

6.2.1Combination with Control Times
When an interval time is set, the maximum value within each interval can be
measured. When a timer time or real-time control time is set, the maximum
value from the start time to the stop time is found, and then the unit stops.

・ The time of occurrence of the maximum value is not shown.
For a 1P2W system in DC mode, the integration function in this unit can
simultaneously integrate positive, negative, and total values for current (I)
and active power (P) for all channels. There are six ways of controlling
integration by the various time settings, as listed below. All of these ways
can be combined with the floppy disk drive and printer.
Load factor (LF) calculation is also possible using the interval timer.

NOTE
・ Because of the internal circuit design, the maximum integration time is
10,000 hours, and the integration automatically stops if this time elapses.
・ Start, stop, and reset control of integration by either a panel operation or the
external control connector applies simultaneously to all items being
integrated. However, the GP-IB or RS-232C interface provides separate
control for each channel. For details see Chapter 12, "GP-IB and RS-232C
Interface."
・ The items which can be integrated depend on the connection mode and
・ Data for each interval of the interval time setting is displayed on the screen
in hold state. When the value is not held, it must be combined with the
floppy disk drive or printer function to display.
・ Calculation results (DC voltage) from the various input units are integrated
at the rate of 64 samples per second. Therefore, integration results may vary
with instruments that use different response speeds, sampling rates or
calculation methods.
・ During integration operation, if the integration item is "o.r" (out-of-range),
the value of 130% of range is integrated. In this case, the integration value
indication is red.
・ In the DC mode, current is integrated from instantaneous current waveforms.
In the AC+DC/AC mode, it is integrated as RMS or MEAN values.
・ In the DC mode, power is integrated from instantaneous power waveforms.
In the AC+DC/AC mode, it is integrated as effective power.
・ Once integration starts, items for which auto ranging is set have their ranges
fixed from the start time. Set the range so that it will not be exceeded before
beginning integration.
・ During integration (even "on standby" under real-time control), all settings
except changing screens and the hold and peak hold functions are disabled.
・ While the hold function is activated, the display is frozen, but internally the
integration continues normally. When the floppy disk drive or D/A outputs
are used, however, the held values continue to be output.
・ While the peak hold function is activated, the integration operation is not
affected.
・ After integration ends, until the integration values are reset, it is not possible
to change settings.
・ The calculation results (for DC voltage) from each input units are integrated
64 times per second.
Operation Procedure
1. Set the required time settings (interval, timer, or real-time control).
For the manual integration, make the time settings to OFF, however, the
timer time operates as 10000 hours.
2. Set the external output for FDD, printer, D/A if necessary.
See Chapter 10, Chapter 11, Chapter 13
Using the three time control functions provided by this unit, it is possible to
control time averaging, the floppy disk drive, printer, and integration
functions.
NOTE

minimum setting of the interval timer changes, according to the amount of
data being written. See Chapter 11, "Using the Floppy Disk Drive.",Chapter
13, "Using the Printer (Option)."

・ The load factor is calculated from the positive value integration only.
Therefore, the load factor does not match the normal average. The negative
integration value is also taken as zero.
・ On the screen, the load factor only is displayed.
・ If no interval time is set, the load factor is not displayed.
・ When combined with the floppy disk drive or printer, the maximum average
power (Wmax) and load factor (LF) recorded during operation for each
interval are output.
・ This function can operate simultaneously with integration.
・ Once load factor measurement starts, items for which auto ranging is set
have their ranges fixed from the start time. Set the range so that it will not
be exceeded before beginning load factor measurement.
・ During load factor measurement (even "on standby" under real-time control),
all settings except changing screens are disabled.
・ After load factor measurement ends, until reset, it is not possible to change
settings.
・ When combined with a timer setting, after the timer period has elapsed, if
the process is started again the load factor is calculated including the data
for the previous timer period.
