Waveform data streaming option enhances award winning Yokogawa WT5000 Precision Power Analyzer
The WT5000 Precision Power Analyzer has been further enhanced with a waveform data streaming option
that brings significant benefits when measuring the efficiency or energy consumption of electronic devices being developed for environmentally friendly applications
Protective cover ensures outdoor VSD operation whatever the weather
to operate in outdoor areas while remaining protected from weather conditions. The enclosure avoids the need to purchase more costly VSDs with higher IP ratings. IP65 or IP66 are often specified for outdoor VSD installations, on the assumption that these higher ratings are sufficient protection against the weather. However, a high IP rating does not mean weatherproof and can be more expensive than VSDs with lower IP ratings. ABB’s weatherproof solution provides a suitable enclosure to ensure that VSDs are adequately protected outdoors, enabling the use of IP55 drives. The weatherproof solution can be used with the ABB range of general purpose drives, HVAC drives, and water industry drives. A range of frame sizes is available to cover VSD variants and power ratings. The backplate is fixed to a wall using the same fixing holes as the drive itself, ensuring a streamlined and easy installation, while still leaving access to the keypad for commissioning. The cover can be removed quickly to carry out drive maintenance.

weatherproof enclosure is available which allows standard, wall-mounted ABB variable speed drives (VSDs)
Precision Power Analyzer. The enhancements are designed to help companies improve performance when developing or evaluating electronic devices such as EV- related equipment or systems for solar and wind power installations. The new DS option centres on waveform data streaming, while the focus of new G7 option is IEC harmonic, voltage fluctuation and flicker testing. In addition, a new firmware version is released that offers Modbus/TCP and raw socket communication, a navigation settings menu, webserver functions and the evaluation of multi-phase motor control. The Yokogawa WT5000 is a Precision Power Analyzer

that offers exceptional measurement accuracy of ±0.03% combined with stability, noise immunity and plug-in modular flexibility to meet the measurement needs of those developing energy-efficient systems.
Ideal Industries supports future electrical skills
with Warrington & Vale Royal College partnership I
deal Industries, the global specialist in electrical
accessories, tools and testing equipment, has developed a partnership with Warrington & Vale Royal College as part of a planned outreach programme with the further education sector across the UK.
Keen to invest in helping to embed a culture of best practice, safety and installation consistency in the next generation of electrical sector professionals, Ideal Industries has donated a large supply of its In-Sure Push-In and Lever Wire Connectors to Warrington & Vale Royal College. The connectors will enable students to train and take exams with this simple- to-use, faster and more consistent alternative to connector strips. The College will also benefit from a number of safe isolation kits and testing equipment donated by Ideal Industries.

okogawa has released two new options and implemented a firmware upgrade for its WT5000
“The WT5000, which is the flagship model of our
power analyzer WT series, now offers greatly extended capabilities for companies measuring power consumption and efficiency as part of their development cycle,” explains Terry Marrinan, VP Sales & Marketing Yokogawa Europe and South-East Asia. “Utilizing the latest power electronics technology, engineers can capture the variations of electric energy in more detail and use this information to optimize the development and design effort.” In the development or evaluation of EV or renewable
energy systems, continuous waveform output or synchronization between numerical data and waveform data is required.
