Power line
disturbances can cause modern electronic equipment, such as computers,
to malfunction. Common types of power line disturbances are high
frequency impulses (spikes), voltage dips (sags), and voltage increases
(surges). Even though monitoring for these disturbances can be costly
and time- consuming, it is important to monitor the line to determine if
protection is necessary, and if so, the type.
The AMPROBE
LAS-800 strip chart recorder offers an easy to use, affordable solution
to monitoring. Through the use of advanced solid state circuit design,
the LAS-800 can monitor the power line for all three types of
disturbances and display the results on a strip chart. The AMPROBE
LAS-800 can easily be moved from site to site because of its rugged
design and small size.
Ranges:
0-220/440/880 volts, full scale, 50 or 60 Hz Nominal voltage ranges are
average responding, calibrated in terms of RMS Spike-Sag-Surge voltage
ranges are peak sensing, but scaled in terms of RMS
Ranges:
0-220/440/880 volts, full scale, 50 or 60 Hz
Nominal voltage ranges are average responding, calibrated in terms of
RMS
Spike-Sag-Surge voltage ranges are peak sensing, but scaled in terms of
RMS
Accuracy: Nominal voltage ranges ±3% Full Scale Sag & Surge modes,
±3% Full Scale,
±2% of reading based on sinusoidal waveforms.
NOTE: sag & surge response time is 1/2 cycle of 50 or 60 Hz

Spike mode, ±3% Full Scale, ±10% of reading.
Spike accuracy is specified for a rectangular pulse whose rise time is
greater than
35 nanoseconds and whose sum of rise time plus peak duration is at least
350 nanoseconds. Accuracy diminishes for narrower spikes.

The AMPROBE DigiMaticTM model DM-I is a portable 3-phase micro-
computer-based chartless recorder. It incorporates 4 LED digits which
recall and display more than 41 days of data from 44 separate functions:
present reading, peak, "Relative" time of peak, minimum reading,
"Relative" time of minimum, maximum reading,
"Relative" time of maximum, average reading, sweep of present
readings, power failure, and total time.
"PEAK" indicates the highest current surge (80 msec. min)
measured.
"MAX" indicates the largest average maximum voltage or current
measured over 6 second intervals.
True RMS sensing
Built-in circuit will retain memory in case of power loss.
"Confidence Test" - at start of any recording run, all segments
of all LED digits and all LED lamps will be illuminated for a few seconds.
Start switch has a safety feature which prevents loss of previously
recorded data.
Monitors 9 readings sequentially in "record" mode
"sweep" position.
Continuously monitors one of six variables at the turn of a switch in
"present reading" mode.
Measures and records data from 6 different inputs in the
"record" mode.
