Pinpoint power problems faster, safer and in greater detail!
The Fluke 434 three-phase power quality analyzer help you locate, predict, prevent and troubleshoot problems in three- and single- phase power distribution systems. Troubleshooting is faster with on-screen display of trends and captured events, even while background recording continues.
The Fluke 434 offers unique features like AutoTrend, which records everything on the screen automatically, and System-Monitor, a quick diagnosis of system performance against user defined limits and Logger Function (optional functionality can be added with upgrade kit Fluke 434/LOG). Together the features help to quickly diagnose problems and build benchmarks for predictive maintenance.The new IEC standards for flicker, harmonics, and power quality are built right in to take the guess work out of power quality.
Simple to use with immediate results
Designed for power quality specialists as well as electricians and
plant technicians working in industrial, healthcare, business, and
public services settings, the Fluke 434 has functions typically only
found on expensive power recorders. Yet its menu-driven interface
allows users to be hooked up and recording in minutes.
Full measurement capability and the highest safety rating
With a CAT III, 1000 V / CAT IV, 600 V safety rating the Fluke 434 can
measure all phases, neutral and ground on virtually every connection in
a low voltage electrical distribution system. The meter's measurement
capabilities encompass all power system parameters including true-rms
voltage and current, frequency, power, power consumption (energy),
unbalance and flicker. They also automatically capture events like
transients (as fast as 5 microseconds and as high as 6kV),
interruptions, rapid voltage changes and dips and swells.
Rugged design for field use
Optimized for mobile applications, these rugged instruments operate up
to seven hours on a single battery charge. The large data (8 MB) memory
stores up to 50 screens and up to 10 measurements each comprising 32
parameters - including setups and trend data - recorded for more than a
year, all of which can be transferred to a PC via FlukeView® software
for analysis or use in reports.
- Frontline Troubleshooting - Quickly diagnose problems on-screen to get your operation back online
- Predictive Maintenance - Detect and prevent power quality issues before they cause downtime
- Quality of Service Compliance - Validate incoming power quality at the service entrance
- Long-term Analysis - Uncover hard-to-find or intermittent issues
- Load Studies - Verify electrical system capacity before adding loads
- Energy Assessments - Quantify energy consumption before and after improvements to justify energy saving devices

Enhancements:
- Expanded voltage configurations with 2 and 2.5 element modes
- Phase angle resolution improved to 0.1º resolution and referenced to L1/A voltage
- Phase rotation indicator provides clear indication of the phase rotation direction to determine correct connections.
AutoTrend - Quickly see the trend
Unique AutoTrend gives you fast insight
into changes over time. Every displayed reading is automatically and
continuously recorded without having to set up threshold levels or
interval times, or having to manually start the process. You can
quickly view trends in voltage, current, frequency, power, harmonics or
flicker on all three phases plus neutral. And you can analyze the
trends using the cursors and zoom function – even while background
recording continues.
AutoTrend automatically records all displayed parameters in the background.
SystemMonitor - Check performance against EN50160 with ease
With a single push of a button, the
unique System-Monitor gives you an overview of power system
performance, and checks the compliance of incoming power to EN50160
limits or to your own custom specifications. The overview is shown on a
single screen, with color-coded bars clearly indicating
which parameters fall outside the limits.
The System-Monitor overview screen gives instant insight into whether the voltage, harmonics, flicker, frequency and the number of dips and swells fall outside the set limits. A detailed list is given of all events falling outside the set limits.
