Description
1P2W×3
(PW3336: 1P2W×2)
Allows you to measure three 1-phase/2wire circuits. (PW336: Allows you to
measure two such circuits.)
1P3W&1P2W
(PW336: 1P3W only)
Measures a 1-phase/3-wire circuit with
CH1 and CH2. The PW3337 can simultaneously measure a 1-phase/2-wire
circuit with CH3.
3P3W&1P2W
(PW336: 3P3W only)
Measures a 3-phase/3-wire circuit with
CH1 and CH2 and measures active
power using the two-power-meter
method. The PW3337 can simultaneously measure a 1-phase/2-wire circuit
with CH3.
Display
Description
3P3W2M
Measures a 3-phase/3-wire circuit with CH1 and CH2 and
measures active power using the two-power-meter
method. Calculates line voltage and phase current, which
are not actually measured, using vector calculations and
displays the result as the CH3 voltage and current.
3V3A
Measures a 3-phase/3-wire circuit with connections for all
line voltages and phase currents and measures the
active power using the two-power-meter method.
3P3W3M
Measures a 3-phase/3-wire circuit. Uses the same connections as the 3V3A wiring mode but converts line voltages into phase voltages by means of vector calculations
and displays the results.
3P4W Measures a 3-phase/4-wire circuit.
Press to select the wiring mode.

5. Selecting the voltage and current ranges
To select auto-range operation,
set after pressing .
The lamp for the selected range key will light up, and the display value will correspond to the range.
Voltage range Current range
Example: Voltage range: CH1, 300 V; current range: CH1, 20 A
Switches the channel for which the
range is being set (applies to both
voltage and current ranges).
2 Integration will start, and the RUN lamp will light up.
6. Performing integration
Integration is performed to measure the amount of power consumed in the set amount of time. In the example shown, the
integration time has been set to 24 hours.
Performing integration Stopping integration
1 Press .
2 Integration will stop, and the RUN lamp will flash.
1 Press while the RUN lamp is lit up.
Troubleshooting
While integration is being performed ( the RUN lamp is lighting) or stopped (the RUN lamp is flashing), range, wiring
mode or other settings cannot be changed. To change settings or perform functions, follow the procedure describ ed
below. Integrated value will be reset by this operation.
Procedure
If integration is stopped (if the RUN lamp is flashing), skip to Step 2.
1 Press to stop integration.
The RUN lamp, which had been lit up, will start flashing.
2 Press to place the instrument in the shift state.
The blue lamp will light up.
3 Press .
The RUN lamp will turn off, and integrated values will be reset.
You can now change settings.

stopped)
If the instrument displays an error, see “Troubleshooting” in the instruction manual (for example , etc.).
If an error is being displayed
Even if the keys are pressed, no settings can be changed
( is displayed).

7. Turning off the instrument
: Power OFF
Once measurement is complete, turn off the
instrument and disconnect connection cables
and other wiring.
Turn off the POWER switch.
