The PW8001 sets a new benchmark for complete power analysis solutions with Hioki being the only manufacturer that offers industry-leading power analyzers and a wide portfolio of high-accuracy current sensors both developed and manufactured by Hioki. This enables to align their performance and results in more accurate and stable measurements from DC to high frequencies and low power factor measurements thanks to functions like the automatic phase shift correction.

Upcoming industry challenges are anticipated with the ability to measure even large currents at voltages up to 1500 V, 15 MS/s sampling rate and multi-channel measurement target applications using SiC/GaN semiconductors from automobile electrification, smart grids and reactors to renewable energy supply sources.

World-class measurement accuracy

Basic accuracy ±0.03%, DC accuracy ±0.05%, 50 kHz accuracy 0.2%* Frequency flatness: band where amplitude falls within ±0.1% range: 300 kHz* band where phase falls within ±0.1° range.

Evaluating power conversion efficiency requires the ability to accurately measure power in every band, from DC to high frequencies. The PW8001 delivers exceptional measurement accuracy not only for 50/60 Hz, but also across a broad frequency band, including for DC and at 50 kHz. This allows it to accurately evaluate power conversion efficiency which often involves measuring multiple frequencies.

Accurate capture of power fluctuations caused by high-speed switching

Sampling performance 18-bit, 15 MHz* Noise Resistance (CMRR) 110 dB, 100 kHz*

Sampling performance and noise resistance is important for evaluating power converters that use materials like SiC and GaN due to the power fluctuations caused by their high-speed switching. The PW8001 can accurately capture high-speed switching waveforms thanks to its high sampling performance and noise resistance.
