Chapter 1 Product Outline

1.1 Feature Outline

Displaying Instantaneous, Integrated, and Demand
Displays instantaneous, average, maximum and minimum values for current, voltage, active power, apparent power, and reactive power. Switch the screen to display integrated values. Set a demand target value and display the demand values from start to finish. See “Displaying Instantaneous, Integrated, and Demand.”
Starting and Ending Recording
Start recording normally or start by following the Quick Start Naviga­tion, which guides you through the necessary setup for recording. See “Starting and Stopping Recording.”
Displaying Vectors and Checking the Wiring
Displays a vector diagram of voltage and current for the measurement channel and checks the wiring. See “Vector.”
1-1
1.1 Feature Outline
Displaying Waveforms
Displays waveforms of voltage and current for the measurement channel. See “Waveforms.”
Harmonic Analysis
Displays harmonic components superimposed on the voltage and current for the measurement channel. See “Harmonic Analysis.”
Displaying Power Supply Quality Events
Displays the swell, dip, interruption, transient, inrush current, and flicker of the measured voltage. See “Power Supply Quality.”

Setup (SET UP)
Configures the CW500 and measurement. See “Setup.”

1.2 Features

This product is a clamp-type power quality analyzer that supports a variety of wiring systems. It simultaneously performs simulations of instantaneous values, integrated values, demand values for power management, harmonic analysis, power quality events, and phase lead capacitor values for improving the power factor. Voltage and current can be displayed as waveforms and vectors. Measured data can be saved to files in SD memory cards or internal memory, and the files can be transferred to a PC through USB communication.
Safety Design
This product complies with safety standard IEC 61010-1 CAT. IV 300V/ CAT. III 600V/CAT. II 1000V.
Power Quality Measurement
This product supports international power quality measurement standard IEC61000-4-30 Class S. It can perform highly accurate frequency and rms voltage measurements and harmonic analysis as well as simultaneously measure without gaps swell, dip, interruption, transient, inrush current, and flicker that are necessary for capturing and monitoring power abnormalities.
Power Measurement
This product can measure active, reactive, and apparent powers as well as watt-hour, power factor, rms current, phase angle, and neutral line current.
Wiring Systems
This product supports single-phase two-wire (four systems), single-phase three-wire (two systems), three-phase three-wire (two systems), and three-phase four-wire measurement lines.
Demand Measurement
You can monitor in a simplified form the usage condition so that the specified target value (contract demand) is not exceeded.
1-3
1.2 Features
Waveform and Vector Displays
Voltage and current can be displayed as waveforms and vectors.
Saving Measured Data
This product is equipped with a logging function whose recording interval can be specified. Measured data can be saved manually or by specifying the date and time. Further, the print screen function can be used to save image data to SD memory cards.
Dual Power System
This product can be driven by AC power or batteries. For batteries, AA alkaline batteries (LR6) or off-the-shelf rechargeable AA nickel-metal hydride batteries (Ni-MH) can be used. For rechargeable AA nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries, use the battery manufacturer’s charger to charge them. You cannot charge them on the CW500. If a power failure occurs while the CW500 is running off of AC power, the power supply is automatically switched to battery power.
Display Screen
This product has a color TFT LCD.
Easy Wiring and Compact, Lightweight Design
Wiring is easy as this product is a clamp type. Its compact, lightweight design makes it convenient to install and carry around.
Application
Files saved in SD memory cards and internal memory can be downloaded to a PC through USB. Downloaded files can be analyzed easily using the accompanying PC software. It is also possible to configure the CW500 from a PC.
Auxiliary I/O Function
The 2-channel analog input (DC voltage) can be used to simultaneously measure analog signals from thermometers, lux meters, and the like. If a power quality event occurs, a contact signal can be sent to an alarm through the 1-channel digital output.

• Different types of current clamp-on probes are connected to each channel. Use the same type of current clamp-on probes for measurement.
• Current clamp-on probe is not firmly connected to the instrument.
• Troubleshooting
Connect the current clamp-on probe that failed to be
detected to a channel that detection was successful, and test again. If the same channel fails again, the instrument may be malfunctioning. If detection fails on the channel connected to the current clamp-on probe that failed to be detected the last time, the clamp-on probe may be malfunctioning. If you suspect a malfunction, stop using it immediately, and see chapter 10, “Troubleshooting,” on page 10-1.

Notes on Settings
If the current range is set to AUTO, only “Power + Harmonics” or “Power only” can be selected with “1. Select desirable recording item.” If you want to record power quality, change the current range to a fixed range before starting to record. Only wiring and recording settings can be specified in “Quick start guide.” Nominal voltage, nominal frequency, threshold for power quality events (included in the measurement settings), and filter coefficient (ramp) for flicker measurement must be set in advance. Set these items from the SETUP menu. Note that the “+ Clamp” option clamp­on probe setting is automatically set to OFF.

Chapter 5 Setup

5.1 Settings

Before starting measurement, you need to set measurement conditions and data saving conditions. To set these conditions, press SET UP to enter the SET UP mode. The SET UP mode is divided into the following five categories. Use the arrow keys to move between the categories. The settings that you change take effect after you exit from the SET UP
mode and appears in the upper left of the screen.
Note that even if you change the settings, if you turn off the power while in SET UP mode, the settings will not take effect.

Demand Measurement Overview
The average power over 30 minutes (measurement cycle) is typically called the demand. Contract demand for factories and the like is determined by this demand. A method to suppress demand is explained below using an example. Assuming that the maximum demand needs to be suppressed to 500 kW (target value), measurement cycle 1 is not a problem because the demand is 500 kW, but measurement cycle 2 is because 600 kW of power is consumed in the first 15 minutes. In this case, the demand for measurement cycle 2 can be suppressed to 500 kW (the same as measurement cycle 1) by reducing the power of the last 15 min to 400kW. Note that if the power consumption during the first half of cycle 2 is 1000 kW and the last 15 minutes is 0 kW (no load), the average power is also 500 kW. If Inspection is set to 15 min, the buzzer will sound after 15 minutes at measurement cycle 2.

Notes on Setting the Thresholds
Because the SWELL, DIP, and INT thresholds are set as percentages of the nominal voltage, if the nominal voltage is changed, the threshold voltages also change. The default value is the peak voltage (300%). Because the InrushCurrent threshold is set as a percentage of the current range, if the current range is changed, the threshold current also changes.

File Name
File names are automatically assigned with incrementing file numbers. As the current file number is retained even when the power is turned off, it will keep incrementing until the system is reset or until the maximum count is reached. Even if you change the save destination, files are saved with serial numbers. If a file with the same file number already exists at the save destination, the measured data file name is automatically incremented to the next number. Screenshot data and setup data are overwritten with the same file names. Be careful when you reset the system and start saving the files from number zero and when sharing a single SD memory card between several CW500s. Note that if all the file numbers from 0 to 9999 are used up, measured data files are also overwritten. If files are deleted or the folder or files are renamed from a PC or the like, data operations on the CW500 and analysis using CW500 Viewer will no longer be possible. Do not change folder names or file names from a PC.
