Functions and features of the UMG 801

All-in-one power analyzer

  • All in one device

    • The basic device has:
      • 8 current measurement channels with 1/5 A inputs
      • 4 Multifunction channels, optionally configurable as RCM, temperature measurement channels or additional current measurement channels
    • Extensive measurement data memory with 4 GB for storage of measurement data
    • Two groups with four digital IOs each (tariff changeover and pulse input, logic states)
    • Analog output (DC 0/4-20 mA)
  • High-precision measurement

    • High sampling frequency (51.2 kHz voltage)
    • 1024 Samples for the voltage measurement
    • High measurement accuracy on all channels (V: 0.2% / A: 0.2% / kWh: class 0.2)
    • Maximum safety: 1000 V CAT III
    • Extensive power quality parameters
