Overview
The Yokogawa 103402FCAD7 power factor meter is a precision switchboard instrument engineered to measure power factor in three-phase AC electrical systems. Power factor meters measure the ratio of real power flowing to the load compared to apparent power in the circuit, and can detect both linear and non-linear loads whether they are lag or lead conditions. The AB40 series provides direct panel mounting and clear analog indication of power factor across a .5 lag to 1 to .5 lead scale.
Key Features
- Water-tight construction with shock-resistant pivot and jewel movement
- ANSI-C39.1 accuracy class 1 specification with rugged design in 4.5-inch switchboard case
