Hioki portable power meters and analyzers are best in class power measuring instruments for measuring single to three-phase lines with a high degree of precision and accuracy. The PQ3100 is a comprehensive but easy-to-use power quality analyzer for monitoring and recording power supply anomalies, allowing their causes to be quickly investigated, and also for assessing power supply problems such as voltage drops, flicker, harmonics, and other electrical issues.
Reliable power supply maintenance, management, troubleshooting, and analysis.
The power grid is the single most important piece of infrastructure in our society, and regular maintenance and management are essential in order to prevent problems. When power supply issues are caused by factors such as equipment malfunctions or rapid surges in power demand, personnel are called upon to analyze the underlying causes quickly and precisely. The PQ3100 aids in reliable power analysis by delivering analytical capabilities that reliably captures the full range of power anomalies along with exceptional ease of use that facilitates each step of instrument operation, from connecting it to the circuit to recording data.
Recording power quality data for the grid
The PQ3100 records data including voltage, current, power, harmonics, and flicker* simultaneously along a single time axis, and the included PQ ONE application software makes it easy to create reports.

Analyzing device power supply issues
When you need to resolve issues with a device that unexpectedly malfunctions or suddenly stops, the PQ3100 captures all power anomalies, including instantaneous outages, voltage drops, and frequency fluctuations, while simultaneously recording trend data
Measuring AC/DC power
Used in combination with an AC/DC auto-zero current sensor, the PQ3100 can accurately measure DC currents over extended periods of time. Since the instrument supplies power to connected sensors, there’s no need to use an additional power supply for sensors.
Simultaneously measure all parameters at once
Measuring all parameters at the same time
The PQ3100 makes it easy to verify current conditions by displaying all measurement parameters simply by toggling the screens.
Simultaneously recording trend graphs and event waveforms
The PQ3100 records trend data for all parameters at once. When the PQA detects a power anomaly, the event is immediately recorded. Since maximum, minimum, and average values are recorded during each interval, you’ll never miss peak values.
