4.5 HARMONIC mode
4.5.1. Keys/keyboard active in Harmonic mode
4.5.2. Principle
The Harmonic mode
is used to display the breakdown into harmonics of a voltage or a current of which the
signal is steady-state or quasi-steady-state. It establishes a first diagnostic of the harmonic
pollution of an installation.
The principle of this mode is to display a graph of the fundamental frequency of order 1
and 63 harmonic orders.
The time base is adaptive; it is not adjusted manually.
This analysis is only for signals having a fundamental frequency between 40Hz and
450Hz.
Only channels CHx (not the functions or the memories) can undergo a harmonic analysis.
The harmonic analyses of 2 (OX 2 channels) or 4 (OX 4 channels) signals can be
displayed simultaneously.
