PEL 104 Power & Energy Logger
The Chauvin Arnoux PEL104 Power Energy Logger is an exceptionally well-built piece of kit designed to be suitable for all types of electrical networks. Automatically recognising the sensors connected, the PEL 104 includes 4 voltage inputs alongside 3 current inputs and crucially, can be operated without having to cut off the mains power supply. This power logger measures and records all the relevant data for energy consumption diagnostics, recording continuously with only a brief interval of 200ms between each measurement. Capable of 5 readings per second and recorded simultaneously on each phase, all data is captured as per the IEEE 1459 standard. Thanks to vast measurement ranges, voltage up 1,000 VAC/VDC and current up to 10 kVAC / 5 kVDC, the PEL 104 can log power values up to 10 GW/GVar/GVA, and energy up to 4 EWh/EVAh/EVarh. This makes the 104 ideal for energy usage analyses, load studies, energy surveys and complying with the energy audit requirements of ISO 50001 and EN 16247-3.
The PEL104 Power Energy Logger performs the following measurements:
- RMS and DC measurements with 128 samples/cycle – simultaneously on each phase
- AC and/or DC voltages up to 1000 V
- Current up to 10 kA AC or 5 kA DC (depending on the current sensor)
- Energy values up to 4 EWh / 4 EVAh / 4 EVarh & total energy (4 quadrants)
- Phase data: cos φ, tan Φ, power factor (PF)
- Crest factor
- Harmonics up to the 50th order for currents and voltages
- DC, 50 Hz, 60 Hz and 400 Hz measurements
Chauvin Arnoux and the PEL104 are dedicated to improving energy efficiency within sustainable, economical buildings. Indeed optimisation of energy consumption is in fact vital to fulfil the latest regulatory requirements.
