Fluke 1742 [FLUKE-1742/15/EUS] Three-Phase Semi-Fixed Energy Logger with 24 in. iFlex Current Probes, 1500A

The Fluke 174215EUS Three-Phase Semi-Fixed Energy Logger with 24 in. iFlex Current Probes, 1500A gives you fast, easy access to the data you need to make critical power quality and energy decisions in real-time. Compact and rugged, the Fluke 1742/15/EUS was designed specifically for technicians and engineers who need the flexibility to troubleshoot, quantify energy usage and analyze power distribution systems. Fully compliant with international power quality standards such as IEC 61000-4-30 and capable of simultaneously logging up to 500 parameters while also capturing events, the Fluke 1742/15/EUS helps to uncover intermittent and hard-to-find power quality issues more easily than ever. The included Energy Analyze plus software quickly assesses the quality of power at the service entrance, substation, or at the load, according to national and international standards like EN 50160 and IEEE 519.

An optimized user interface, flexible current probes, and an intelligent measurement verification function that allows you to digitally verify and correct connections make setup easier than ever and reduce measurement uncertainty. Minimize your time in potentially hazardous environments and reduce the hassle of suiting up in PPE by using a wireless connection (WiFi) to view data directly in the field.

For simple load and energy studies the Fluke 1742 offers optimal performance in a rugged package and can be upgraded to 1746 or complete 1748 functionality.

Easy to Use
The Fluke 1742/15/EUS was designed with the technician in mind. The four current probes are each connected separately allowing flexibility and simplicity, the instrument automatically detects, scales and powers the probes so you don't have to worry about ensuring the measurements are correct.

The thin current probes are designed to easily get through tight conductor spacing and include a wide range for high accuracy in each application. An innovative tangle-free, flat, voltage lead makes connection simple and reliable. The instrument's intelligent 'Verify Connection' feature which can be accessed using the PC Setup application automatically checks to make sure the instrument is connected correctly and can digitally correct connections without having to disconnect measurement leads. In the event of a connection error, the power button on the unit will turn from green to amber indicating that the connections should be verified before proceeding. The loggers can also be conveniently and safely powered directly from the measured circuit (up to 500V) - no more searching for power outlets or having to run multiple extension cords to the logging location, which is especially useful when logging at a remote site and when installing inside of electrical panels.

Rugged and Reliable
The Fluke 1742/15/EUS was built to withstand tough working environments. The flexible current probes are IP65 rated and suitable for most installation situations; the optional IP65 voltage adapter ensures safe, reliable operation even in harsh conditions. Standard 2m (6.6 ft) leads simplify connections on difficult to access conductors, and optional 5m (16.5 ft) leads are useful when installing in difficult locations. With the capability of powering the instruments from the power line up to 500V, installation is as simple as can be.

Thoughtful Design
Fluke prides itself on thoughtful design, which is why the 1742/15/EUS includes simple but effective accessories like the MA-C8 adapter, making powering the instrument with a line cord easy when not in the field. Ports that are not always needed in the field are IP65 protected, including the Ethernet, USB, AUX and I/O ports, protecting for both moisture and dirt ingress. The status LEDs give a quick and clear indication of what the instrument is doing without having to touch any controls. Its compact size means that it will fit into most available spaces without any problem.
