Compliance Testing of Harmonic Current Emissions According to IEC61000-3-2 and IEC61000-3-12.
Compliance Testing of Harmonic Current Emissions According to IEC61000-3-2 and IEC61000-3-12. Using the Vitrek PA900 Precision Harmonic Power Analyzer Introduction Compliance with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards is mandatory for electrical and electronic equipment sold in many global markets. Among these, the IEC61000-3-2 and IEC61000-3-12 standards specify limits for harmonic current emissions of equipment connected to low-voltage public supply systems. These limits ensure that individual devices do not contribute excessively to harmonic distortion on the power grid, which can lead to overheating in transformers, nuisance tripping of breakers, and interference with other equipment. The Vitrek PA900 Precision Power [...]

NUCLEAR HEAT EXCHANGER VIBRATION
Power plants, particularly nuclear power plants, require heat exchangers to cool down the primary working fluid for the power plant. Excessive vibration can lead to cracking and premature failure of the heat exchanger. Problem: A major power plant company approached MTI looking for a sensor that could measure vibration of a heat exchanger assembly that was immersed under water. Additionally, the water could reach 250 F and up to 220 PSI; the probe had to be sealed with a gland at a bulkhead feed through area. Solution: MTI developed a special fiber optic probe based on the MTI-2125H probe configuration. The [...]

MTI Instruments Whitepaper: Capacitance Guide for Industrial Applications
Capacitance Guide for Industrial Applications This guide from MTI Instruments explains what you need to know about using electrical capacitance for measurement in industrial applications, including advanced manufacturing. Basic Principles Capacitance is the ratio of the change in an electric charge to the corresponding change in its electrical potential (i.e., voltage). Capacitors, components that that have the “capacity” to store an electric charge, consist of conductive parallel plates that don’t touch or connect with each other. Instead, these metal plates are electrically-separated by air or a layer of insulating material (i.e., the dielectric). MTI’s [...]

High Precision Portable Signal Generators and Calibrators: Everything You Need to Know
High precision portable signal generators are portable electronic devices that generate highly precise signals for testing, system calibration, sensor simulation, troubleshooting, and monitoring. Unlike the benchtop signal generators that are used in laboratories, these hand-held portable devices are designed to be used in the field. The best high precision portable signal generators are also rugged and NIST traceable, meaning that their manufacturer calibrates them to standards from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In terms of cost, high precision portable signal generators are more expensive than less precise, lower-end devices that can be held in the hand; [...]
