EM720 Power Quality and Revenue Meter 11
• Synchronized waveforms from multiple devices in a
single plot
• Exporting waveforms in COMTRADE and PQDIF file
formats
Data Recorders
• Sixteen Data recorders
• Programmable data logs on a periodic basis and on
any internal and external trigger; triggering from the
Fault recorder, PQ recorder or control setpoints;
exporting data trends in PQDIF file format
• Fast fault and PQ data profiling (trending) triggered
from the Fault and PQ recorders: 1/2-cycle to 10-min
RMS envelopes; up to 20 pre-fault and post-fault
cycles
Programmable Logical Controller

thresholds and delays, relay control, event-driven data
recording
• 8 digital counters for counting pulses from external
sources and internal events
• 4 programmable timers from 1 cycle to 24 hours for
periodic recording and triggering operations on a time
basis.
