The Series consists of the Fluke Norma 4000 Three-Phase Power Analyzer and the Fluke Norma 5000 Six-Phase Power Analyzer. These rugged, high-precision analyzers provide unmatched price performance for easy and reliable use in the field, or as a bench unit in laboratories and on test benches.

Applications

• Electric motors and inverter drive systems - Through detailed spectrum analysis and dynamic torque calculation capabilities, switching losses caused by the inverter are accurately measured, and a thorough evaluation is made of torque transients and harmonics at higher frequencies.
• Inverter drive system - Simultaneous measurement of all electrical and mechanical power parameters in the same time window enables users to observe the influence one component has on another, or on the whole system.
• Lighting systems - A wide bandwidth of up to 10 MHz and a high sampling rate up to 1 MHz provide detailed signal analysis at ballast outputs. A unique shunt technique enables power measurements at very high frequencies. Simultaneous measurement of input and output power provides instant calculation of ballast losses.
• Transformers - Synchronous six-phase power measurements enable highly accurate efficiency and loss calculations of large power transformers even at very low power factors. Synchronous multiphase resistance measurements of transformer coils are also possible.
• Automotive - Synchronous electrical input and mechanical output measurements provide complete data on the efficiency and losses of individual components as well as the whole drive system.
• Switching power supplies and UPS - Very wide bandwidth enables detailed and accurate power measurements in the switching link of switching power supplies. Unique coaxial shunt technology delivers precision results in high frequencies of several 100 kHz.
• Charge pumps/boost converters - Wide measurement bandwidth combined with wide dynamic range enable precise measurements of charge pumps with very high switching frequency in the link circuit.
• Current transducers - Detect very small phase shift errors between the various current and voltage channels for support the calibration of current transducers.
• tan δ (dissipation factor) measurement - Measure power at very small power factors and calculate tan δ from voltage and current at very low loss angles.
• Calibration and test laboratories - High measurement accuracy enables use as a standard for power calibration and for the certification of voltage, current, power and distortion.

Measure, Test and Analyze with High Precision and Ease

Measuring system

Fluke Norma 4000 and Fluke Norma 5000 power analyzers accurately measure current and voltage and calculate active, reactive and apparent power and calculate other derived values from these high-precision measurements.

Accuracy is not affected by either the waveform shape or frequency over a wide range. Phase shift accuracy is maintained due to the input channel design. Harmonics are calculated up to half of the sampling rate.

The DSO function represents measured input parameters as waveforms. Voltage and current can be measured directly via the instrument's integrated voltage dividers and shunts. It is also possible to connect external voltage dividers as well as shunts or current probes for specific applications. Options such as additional interfaces, analogue inputs and outputs are also available. The analyzer firmware can be updated via the standard RS232 interface.

Intuitive keypad operation

Fluke Norma Series power analyzers are very easy to use. With their simple keypad layout and large display, it is possible to select the desired screen and quickly see the important data.

With the arrow keys, users can change phases or move the cursor to highlight individual fields, which can be accessed using the ENTER key. Settings can be changed to suit the application at hand. Configurations most used can be saved for later use.

High precision measurements

Fluke Norma Series power analyzers are designed to measure signals in a wide frequency range from dc to MHz. The input stages are dc coupled and designed to handle high rise time signals. A zero and offset calibration against a stable voltage reference runs automatically over short time periods to stabilize the accuracy.

All voltage and current channels are separated by a unique technology of barriers for high channel isolation and common mode rejection. This makes Fluke Norma Series power analyzers suitable for special applications, such as the switching waveforms present on variable frequency drives or high efficiency lighting loads.

Non gapping

The exceptionally high processing power enables precise measurements without gapping, ensuring good results even with rapidly changing signals.

Longtime accuracy

Fluke Norma Series power analyzers maintain high performance and reliable accuracy within the industry's longest recommended recalibration interval of two years. This long interval reduces downtime and saves service costs.

Standard configurations

There are four different measuring channels available for each Fluke Norma Series power analyzer. For the highest level of flexibility and simplicity, you can choose from a variety of standard configurations. This enables users to select the power analyzer best suited to their application's power measurement requirements.

Each power phase module differs in basic accuracy, current measuring range, sampling frequency, and bandwidth. For detailed information about the available optional modular power phases, please refer to Page 6 of the specifications section.

The input modules can handle up to 10 A or 20 A directly or measure current via wideband precision shunts. The available range of shunts enables measurements up to 1500 A and can be used in conjunction with all of the available input modules.

Powerful NormaView PC software

The Fluke NormaView software improves operation efficiency of the analyzers by enabling instrument setup settings to be saved and stored along with the measurement data. Instrument setups can be used for particular measurement tasks. Settings can be easily uploaded to the instrument with just a few mouse clicks. The software also enables quick and easy data download, analysis and report writing.

Optional process interface

The optional process interface can be used with both Fluke Norma 4000 and Fluke Norma 5000 power analyzers. It provides the simultaneous recording of torque (M), speed (N) and mechanical power (Pm) of up to four motors. Each of the eight inputs is switchable between analog (voltage) or digital (frequency) input. This interface provides synchronous capture at a sample rate of 34 kHz. The interface also provides four analog outputs, which are updated after every average interval. By inputting the additional analog and digital values it is possible to fully evaluate electrical and mechanical efficiency in real time.

Modular Power Phases

The Fluke Norma 4000 power analyzer can be equipped with up to three power phases, and the Fluke Norma 5000 power analyzer can be equipped with up to six power phases. Users can select the type of power phase best suited for their application from a variety of optional power phases. Specifications vary depending on the model of the power phase.

Each modular plug-in power phase consists of a voltage and a current measurement channel. Each measuring channel is available for each basic unit. However, only one kind of channel can be used per unit (see standard configurations).
