High-Precision Power Quality Analysis with ZXDN-3600 Handheld Analyzer

Power quality analysis is essential for maintaining the reliability and efficiency of electrical systems. Technicians and engineers require accurate, portable, and user-friendly instruments to diagnose issues such as harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations, and phase imbalances. The ZXDN-3600 Handheld Power Quality Analyzer stands out as a high-precision tool designed for comprehensive assessment of power quality and electrical parameters in both field and laboratory environments.

Key Features and Capabilities

The ZXDN-3600 offers a wide range of measurements, including voltage, current, active power, reactive power, power factor, phase angle, and frequency. Its ability to display voltage and current waveforms—both single-phase and three-phase—enables detailed analysis of system behavior. The instrument also provides vector diagrams, allowing users to verify wiring configurations and detect incorrect connections quickly.

Unlike bulkier, fixed-installation power quality analyzers, the ZXDN-3600 is handheld and portable, making it ideal for on-site troubleshooting. It supports clamp current transformers (CTs) with multiple range options (5A/25A standard, 100A/500A or 400A/2000A optional), enabling non-intrusive measurement without breaking current circuits. This feature enhances safety and convenience during operation.

Advanced Power Quality Analysis

The device performs detailed power quality measurements in compliance with industry standards, including:

1.Frequency deviation

2.Voltage deviation and fluctuation

3.Flicker measurement

4.Three-phase voltage unbalance

5.Harmonic analysis up to the 63rd order

With a voltage measurement accuracy of ±0.1% and current/power accuracy of ±0.5%, the ZXDN-3600 delivers reliability comparable to benchtop instruments. Its harmonic measurement errors are as low as 0.1% for voltage and 0.2% for current, ensuring high confidence in data quality.

Data Logging and Connectivity

A standout feature of the ZXDN-3600 is its extensive data logging capability. It can store data at user-configurable intervals, with built-in memory supporting continuous recording for over 18 months at one-minute intervals. This makes it suitable for long-term monitoring applications. Data can be transferred via USB to a computer, where specialized software facilitates deeper analysis and report generation.

Comparison with Conventional Tools

Traditional power quality analyzers are often larger, less portable, and require more complex setup. The ZXDN-3600 combines laboratory-grade accuracy with handheld convenience. Unlike basic multimeters or clamp meters, it provides comprehensive power quality metrics, harmonic analysis, and vector diagram visualization—features typically found in more expensive, stationary systems.

Additionally, the instrument includes functions such as load fluctuation monitoring and dynamic recording, which are critical for diagnosing intermittent issues and evaluating the performance of compensation devices.
