The Hioki PW8001 High-Precision Power Analyzer sets the benchmark for precision power analysis, offering unmatched accuracy and flexibility for evaluating motor and inverter efficiency. Supporting DC and frequencies from 0.1 Hz to 5 MHz, it features an 8-channel measurement capacity, enabling simultaneous analysis of complex systems like EV drivetrains, renewable energy sources, and high-efficiency SiC/GaN semiconductors.
Equipped with advanced features such as automatic phase correction, intuitive Power Spectrum Analysis (PSA), and CAN/CAN FD integration, the PW8001 excels in capturing high-speed switching power fluctuations and harmonics. Its compatibility with high-voltage systems (up to 1500 V) and seamless connectivity with industry-standard software like LabVIEW and MATLAB ensure it meets diverse testing needs. With its robust design, real-time waveform visualization, and comprehensive motor analysis functions, the PW8001 is the ultimate tool for power conversion efficiency analysis.
The AZX Series (Regenerative AC / DC Power Source) is a family of high power, single, split and three phase, AC, DC and AC+DC output capable Power Sources with full energy recovery to the AC mains when sinking power from the equipment under test. Available models range from 30 kVA to 440 kVA. Using a modern color touch screen based user interface for ease of use, the AZX Series is cost effective and fully programmable for both basic frequency conversion and advanced AC power line or DC power disturbance test applications requiring up to 1000 Hz fundamental frequency.
The energy recovery capability allows both sourcing and sinking of current and power up to 100% of rated power. Adding the Load Option (Option L) adds full electronic regenerative AC & DC Load programming capability to the AZX.
