COMBINED kW/kVA TRANSDUCER

Datasheet (Adobe Acrobat Format)

Applications : Active and apparent power monitoring for indication or maximum demand control purposes.

This transducer converts both active and apparent power in 3-phase 3 or 4 wire systems into their D.C. equivalents, by means of Time-Division-Multiplication techniques.

Not only does this transducer provide accurate active and apparent power measurement, but its internal test points can, with the aid of an oscilloscope, be used to detect incorrect phasing as well as facilitate an assessment of the harmonic content. This information stems directly from observations of the voltage, current and power curves of each phase.

MODE OF OPERATION

This transducer uses time-division-multiplication techniques, operating at high sampling rates, to multiply (3) the transformed voltage (1) and current (2) signals of each phase, and thereby produce the power signal for that phase. These three power signals (one from each phase) are summated (4) and transformed by the output amplifier (5) into a proportional d.c. current signal to provide the active power output.

The apparent power signal is derived by taking these same individual power signals and level shifting them (6) by an amount equal to the component of returned power, which effectively produces the absolute value of these power waveforms. These individual signals are then summated (7) and transformed by the output amplifier (8) into a proportional d.c. current signal to provide the apparent power output.

The auxiliary supply is transformed in P.T. (9), rectified and smoothed in regulator (10) and then used to power the multipliers, summators and output amplifiers.
