MTX 3281
MTX 3282
MTX 3283
Specifications valid from 20 % of the range in A, 10 % of the range in V
The value of the peak factor results from calculation: (Pk+ - Pk-) / 2 x Vrms
Additional error for 250 µs < t < 500 µs : 3 %
Measurement zero reset : by pressing the key .

Resistive power W
Display of measurement in relative power in relation to a resistance reference
(W REF) adjustable from 1 to 10,000 Ω, factory-adjusted to 50 Ω.
The function performed is: (measured voltage)

∗ W REF(unit W)
Ranges DC and AC
Resolution 100 µW
Accuracy 2 x accuracy in VDC or VAC (in %)
Protection 1000 Vrms
Power calculation
V x A
MTX 3282
MTX 3283
In AC and AC+DC voltage measurement : this calculation is limited to 400 Hz
The current measurement is always performed in AC+DC.
Accuracy (typical) : V measurement accuracy + Peak A measurement accuracy
The connection on the COM input must be short and of large diameter, in order to
limit the voltage drop which influences Volt measurement.
