Equipped with 8 independent channels, the Dranetz PowerGuide 4400 Three Phase Power Quality is the only advanced power monitoring instrument to incorporate a color touch screen into its lightweight design.  Automated setups provide instant detection of circuits and configurations, ensuring that the instrument is ready to successfully collect data.  Users can select the length and mode of data collection, including troubleshooting, data logging, power quality surveys, energy and load balancing.

Typical Applications:

Troubleshooting:   The PowerGuide 4400's unique annunciator "report card" provides instant power quality answers in the field. Data is presented in color-coded categories to quickly identify areas of concern, identified in red. Drill down for more detailed information by simply touching the graphical screen.

Fault Recording:   The PowerGuide 4400's simple fault recording mode provides instantaneous detection of electrical malfunctions and identification of faults within a facility’s power infrastructure.

InRush:  The PowerGuide 4400 goes beyond other power monitoring instruments in measuring inrush by providing current based RMS triggers and peak threshold crossings to optimize the performance and longevity of that key equipment.

Compliance Monitoring:  The PowerGuide 4400 has been designed to meet the most advanced power quality standards, including IEEE 1159, IEC 61000-4-30 Class A and EN50160.


Equipment Performance Testing:  Determining the availability and compatibility of facility power prior to the installation of new equipment is simplified using the PowerGuide 4400. The instrument incorporates advanced features such as RMS triggers, low/medium frequency transients, and cross triggering between channels used to demonstrate that power mitigation devices such as UPSs are operating properly.

Energy Surveys:  The PowerGuide 4400 is an invaluable tool for performing energy surveys, including monitoring energy consumption, usage patterns, peak demands and the activation of large loads to reduce electricity costs.

Features and Highlights

Analyze and Visualize Data View events, timeplots and waveforms simultaneously and interactively using Dran-View’s exclusive 3 pane window, to quickly diagnose power quality problems. Move your mouse over events to drill down for more detail or access to different channels.
Tailor Presentation Options Chart, object, area, site and other exclusive tools help you select the most appropriate diagrams for the project. Tools such as zoom, pan, area marker, harmonic scaling, and event removal are among the more than 50 available options.
Compare Multiple Sites Dran-View Enterprise allows you to simultaneously view data from many different sites or instruments, to compare data from various locations or times in the same chart.
Correlate Data Correlate data and graph all parameters of interest in overlaid, stacked or 3D graphs. All measured and calculated parameters are sorted into different categories, making it easy to find and select the data you want to display.
Categorize, Group and Sort Events Dran-View’s new workspace bar not only categorizes all power quality events, but can be sorted, filtered, branched and searched, or used to remove events and data. You can even create formulas to perform calculations between sites.
Evaluate Data from Various Formats Any data source can be exported to IEEE PQDIF format. COMTRADE files and tabulated text files with waveforms or trends can be imported into Dran-View Enterprise.
Automated Reporting Using simple wizards, format data into professional easy-to-understand reports. Dran-View automatically detects the measurement mode, such as Inrush or Fault Recording, and selects the relevant graphics and reports for distribution
Design Custom Reports Choose from over 20 different reporting options and modify diagrams, data listings and standards to fit your individual reporting requirements. Options include fixed or user-selected timeplots, ITIC, worst case summaries, and more. You can even define your own standards. A single click lets you bookmark any report for future reference
Edit Reports Dran-View has a built-in text editor where you can easily insert pictures and text notations, delete events, rearrange diagrams and adjust layout. Dran-View has a unique harmonic/timeplot calculator to compute harmonics and phase angles, symmetry, unbalance and other PQ parameters.
Understand Harmonics In addition to the unique Harmonic Demo Tool, Dran-View now includes a harmonic/timeplot calculator used to calculate parameters such as sliding RMS, harmonics, power and symmetrical components. This tool is ideal for use during generator start-up and Inrush projects.
Rescue Kit Dran-View contains unique analysis support such as the harmonic demo tool, separate harmonics scaling for voltage, current and power, and a rescue kit to correct timestamps, flip probes, adjust incorrect connection types, or change scaling factors without recollecting data.
