Fluke 430 Series II Three-Phase Power Quality and Energy Analyzers Technical Data More detailed power quality analysis capability, and a new Fluke-patented energy monetization function The new 430 Series II Power Quality and Energy Analyzers offer the best in power quality analysis and introduce, for the first time ever, the ability to monetarily quantify energy losses. The new Fluke 434, 435 and 437 Series II models help locate, predict, prevent, and trouble- shoot power quality problems in three-phase and single-phase power distribution systems. Additionally, the Fluke-patented energy loss algorithm, Unified Power Measurement, measures and quantifies energy losses due to harmonics and unbalance issues, allowing the user to pinpoint the origin of energy waste within a system.

Unbalance also wastes energy. Using Energy savings UPM can minimize or eliminate that energy waste, thus saving money. Traditionally energy savings are achieved by monitoring and targeting, or in other words, by Harmonics finding the major loads in a facility and optimiz- UPM also provides details of the energy wasted ing their operation.
