Test Equipment & Instrumentation, Hire, Sales & Technical Services SMC PME-20-PH, Phase Angle Meter Home   SMC PME-20-PH, Phase Angle Meter Based on microprocessor technology, the PME-20-PH is an instrument designed mainly as a phase angle meter, although other parameters, such as Frequency and Power Factor can be measured. The instrument has an analogic scale that enables it to be used as a synchroscope. The instrument is mounted in a high resistance plastic box, reduced in size and weight.  The instrument has two inputs, which are individually isolated galvanically. This allows for a voltage input up to 500 V RMS and current input up to 25 A RMS, to be connected directly into the input taps. It is not necessary to change measurement ranges and scales. The phase angle is measured between these 2 inputs, with a resolution of 0.1º, regardless of the input values, magnitude (Voltage, Current), or the combinations used.  With external optional accessories the input values can be raised up to 750V and 1000A.  The instrument is powered with 4 rechargeable batteries, with a capacity of 1.5 V and 1500 A/H, having a use of 6 hours, with a recharge time of 3 hours. An External battery charger is supplied with the instrument.  There is an RS-232 port connector that enables the instrument to be connected to a computer to be calibrated, to download measurements, and update the internal firmware, with corresponding software.  As well, there is a BUS PME connector, which enables the equipment to be connected to other equipment in the PME Range, enhancing the application of the instrument.  The display is a Graphic LCD, with a back light that can be adjusted to suit the ambient conditions. The measurement results are presented simultaneously with the necessary complimentary data, and in the case of the Power Factor measurement, the instrument indicates the phase angle quadrant.  The selection of the measurement modes and connection to the instrument are clearly indicated and made with a membrane keyboard with a strong resilience.  The equipment is supplied with a transport bag, connection cables, clips, batteries, and a battery charger.
