1. APPLICATION The Multi-transducer is a programmable digital instrument destined for the measurement and parameter conversion of 3 or 4-wire three-phase power networks, in balanced and unbalanced systems. It ensures the measurement and conversion of measured values into standard analog current signals. Relay outputs signal the overow of selected quantities, and the pulse output can be used for the consump- tion monitoring of the 3-phase active energy.
The transducer possesses an archive, in which 9000 last mean power values, with time marker, suitably synchronized with the clock (15, 30 or 60 minutes) are stored. Maximal and minimal values are measured for all quantities. Additional- ly, there is the possibility to accommodate the transducer to external measuring transducers.
Before switching the transducer on, one must check the correctness of connections to the network. The removal of the transducer housing during the guarantee contract period may cause its cancellation. The transducer is destined to be installed and used in industrial electromagnetic environment conditions.
