Power Quality Logger

Fluke 1738

Power Quality Logger

Poor power quality is one of the primary causes of costly downtime and detrimental long-term effects on the health of Food and beverage facility equipment and systems. The Fluke 1738 Three-Phase Power Quality Logger provides visibility into your recorded data to help you make critical power quality and energy decisions in real time. This will help you optimise your site’s reliability and cost savings.

  • Automatically capture and log voltage, current, power, harmonics, and associated power quality values

  • Load study measurement

  • Capture dips, swells, and inrush currents with event waveform snapshots and high-resolution RMS profiles

  • Easily download and analyse every detail of energy consumption and power quality health with automated reporting software
