1 Introduction
We founded Power Monitors Incorporated (PMI) to provide state-of-the-art,
easy-to-use, and affordable electronic test equipment to the power industry.
Our products have been developed by working directly with electric utilities to
determine their specific needs. The 2SX-Series Voltage Scanners have also been
developed by following these same principles. The 2SX-Series Scanner combines
the powerful, high technology voltage analysis capabilities of our larger Voltage
Scanners with precisely targeted end use specifically by plugging directly in to the
meterbase at a service entrance.
The 2SX-Series Voltage Scanner was developed for diagnosing electric
power problems at the revenue meter. The unit plugs into any standard 2S meter
socket, to detect outages, sags, swells, and flicker. Detectable voltage range is 0 to
290 volts, allowing the measurement and recording of severe voltage variations on
120VAC single-phase lines. Inside its lightweight, rugged enclosure, state-of-the-art
electronics measure and record true RMS line to neutral voltage and load currents.
Each unit has been individually calibrated to ensure high accuracy and
stability. With its voltage and current measurement and digital processing
circuitry based on the established Voltage Scanner line, the 2SX-Series Scanner
provides a voltage measurement, processing, and reporting system with a proven
performance history.
In summary, the 2SX-Series Scanner Voltage was created with your needs
in mind. It is perfect for analyzing voltage disturbances at the consumer level. After
looking through this manual and using the 2SX-Series Scanner Voltage, please
