C.A 8436 Qualistar+, the new all-terrain power and energy quality analyzer from Chauvin Arnoux, offers robustness and watertightness with IP67 protection. It is suitable for industrial applications, in factories, production workshops... and also on outdoor distribution cabinets. For preventive or corrective maintenance, the C.A 8436 can be used on all types of low-voltage installations.
For greater autonomy, the C.A 8436 is self-powered directly from the phase from 100 V to 1000 V, AC or DC. Thanks to its 5 voltage and 4 current inputs, the C.A 8436 can record all parameters continuously and simultaneously. Multiple alarms provide optimum network monitoring. The entire Qualistar+ range can be used to draw up the power balances required for energy efficiency diagnostics. Qualistar+ analyzers comply with IEC 61000-4-30, and can be used to produce measurement reports in compliance with EN 50160.
Performance
The C.A 8436 measures voltage, current and power parameters useful for the complete diagnosis of an electrical installation. Low-level current measurements (100 mA - 10,000 A) are possible thanks to the use of MiniFLEX flexible sensors. Power measurements take all parameters into account: the breakdown of reactive power, with the notion of non-active power (N), deforming power (D), and reactive power (Q1 ). All parameters (transients, alarms and waveforms) are captured and recorded simultaneously. Harmonics measurement (in %f and %r ) offers a complete breakdown of harmonics, including on the neutral conductor, with calculation of distorting voltages and currents.
Ergonomics & accessories
The C.A 8436 is equipped with a large color TFT display, which features an inverted day/night display for more comfortable viewing. Communication between the C.A 8436 and a PC via USB is fast. In addition to its proven ease of use, the C.A 8436 comes with a wide range of IP67 accessories: power cord, voltage cord sets, MiniFlex and AmpFlex.
