THD value meter SK6-220

THD value meter SK6-220

ZET Ltd completed process of receiving of pattern approval certificate for meter of THD value SK6-220. Principle of operation ang basic metrological performance of SK6-220 is almost the same with calibrator-meter SK6-20. Major differences between instruments:
  • meter SK6-220 is controlled by built in processor, display and keyboard and doesn't need an external PC unlike SK6-20;
  • dynamic range of meter SK6-220is extended to 50 V of amplitude value of first harmonic (maximal value of arbitrary waveform signal).

Purpose:

  • Meter is designed for THD value measurement, amplitude and frequency of first harmonic measurement, amplitude and initial phases (relative to the first harmonic phase) of higher harmonics measurement. Meter also has a capability to measure levels of amplitude and frequencies of interharmonics and subharmonics of signal.
  • Meters can be used as second grade working standard of THD value and as ordinary measuring instrument of THD value. Also they can be used in analysis of metering instruments and different radio engineering equipment.
  • Meters SK6-220 can replace calibrator-meters of nonlinear distortions SK6-20.
