KBR multimess D9-PQ Safety instructions Follow the operating instructions. Keep the operating instructions with the device. Ensure that the device is operated only in a perfect condition. Never open the device. Ensure that only qualified personnel operate the device.
D9-PQ for low, medium-voltage grids is the central component of a system with which all measurement tasks in electrical grids can be solved. The multimess D9-PQ can be used as either a Power Quality Interface in accordance with grid quality standards or as a measuring device for all physically defined variables in three-phase grids.
Time-clock uncertainty Flagging Transient influence quantities The multimess D9-PQ has been developed for measurements perfromed within public grids as well as for recording PQ data within an industrial environment up to 690V (L-L) measurement voltage. No moving parts (fans, hard drives etc.)
