Multifunctional meter of electrical installation parameters Sonel MPI-540-PV WMPLMPI540PV

This is an advanced tool created especially for measuring parameters of photovoltaic installations. With the help of one device, it is possible to perform a whole range of tests on the DC and AC side in accordance with the guidelines of the PN-EN 62446 standard. In addition, Sonel MPI-540-PV is also used to carry out all measurements used to determine the safety of households and industrial electrical installations. The presented meter is a device with advanced capabilities, dedicated to specialists operating in the installation and electrical industries.

During the measurement of the parameters of the photovoltaic installation, the meter automatically converts the parameters to the STC reference conditions (Standard Test Conditions). Measurements of voltages, currents and power on the AC and DC side of the inverter will verify its efficiency. After transferring the data stored in the meter's memory to the Sonel PE6 program, it is possible to generate a test report on the parameters of photovoltaic installations.

With a view to automation of measurements, the Sonel MPI-540-PV meter has been additionally enhanced with the function of testing RCDs in Auto mode. The device also has measurement sequences pre-programmed by the manufacturer (so-called self-tests), which can be extended with your own sequences if necessary. The capabilities and functionality of the meter will be additionally increased by a properly selected additional accessory, e.g. in the form of an AutoISO-1000C adapter, which enables automatic measurements of the insulation resistance of 3-, 4-, and 5-core wires.< /p>

Photovoltaics under supervision

MPI-540-PV is an extremely versatile meter, designed in particular for testing photovoltaic installations. We will use the device to perform a set of tests on the DC and AC side – in accordance with the guidelines of the PN-EN 62446 standard. By measuring the parameters related to the photovoltaic installation, the device will automatically convert them to the STC (Standard Test Conditions) reference conditions. Measurements of voltages, currents and power on the AC and DC side of the inverter will verify its efficiency. Saving the results in the meter's memory will make it possible to prepare a report on the tests carried out in the Sonel Electrical Measurements program.

Comprehensive analysis of network parameters

< p>The built-in three-phase recorder allows you to observe the current state of the network and record its parameters, such as voltage, current, power, harmonics, THD. The meter allows you to read selected quantities and display their graphical presentation on the screen in real time. Parameters are measured independently from the recording saved on the memory card. The device can present:
• graphs of voltage and current waveforms (oscilloscope),
• graphs of voltage and current in time,
• phasor diagram,< /li>
• measurements of many parameters in tabular form,
• chart of current and voltage harmonics.

Easy to read

The device is equipped with a color, touch LCD screen with a diagonal of 7” and resolution of 800x480 pixels. This guarantees ease of use and easy reading of parameters and time courses. A large screen means more information is available when using the meter. The interface is readable in all conditions – also thanks to the appropriate size of the displayed symbols. The attached stylus allows you to work also with dielectric gloves.

Built-in help system

The device has built-in help screens with measurement diagrams. Thanks to this, you can easily and quickly check how to connect a given system depending on the type of measurement.

Increased resistance to environmental conditions

The meter  ;MPI-540-PVwill cope well in harsh environmental conditions. Protection against dust and water penetration is ensured by a unique housing with an IP51 tightness level. It is resistant to mechanical damage, and the special design allows you to easily protect the touch display by sliding the meter cover. In addition to the fact that it protects against damage, it also allows you to conveniently carry and use the device in various positions.

Communication and software

< p>The advantage of the device is the multitude of communication interfaces and cooperation with external software. Through the USB port, removable SD memory card or via wireless communication (Bluetooth*, Wi-Fi) you can transfer the measurement data to a computer. In order to generate a test report in the field of electric shock protection, the Sonel Electrical Measurements program should be used. Sonel Reader saves the downloaded resources to the simplest formats and prints them out. The specialist Sonel Analysis program is used to read and analyze data from the recorder.
