  • Form Factor: Rack-mount module for WT5000 mainframe
  • Front panel: LED status indicators for each channel (CH1, CH2, CH3)

Working Principle:
The module utilizes a 20-bit Delta-Sigma A/D converter operating at 100 MS/s. Voltage and current signals are conditioned through precision attenuators and shunt resistors, then digitized simultaneously. The FPGA-based processing engine performs real-time FFT, harmonic decomposition, power calculation (active, reactive, apparent), and integration with sub-microsecond timing precision.

Key Advantages:

  • Highest sampling rate in its class (100 MS/s) for capturing fast transients in SiC/GaN inverter testing
  • True simultaneous sampling eliminates phase errors between channels
  • CE certified for unrestricted deployment in European markets
  • Direct compatibility with all WT5000 mainframe configurations

Applicable Industries:

  • Electric Vehicle (EV) powertrain testing
  • Renewable energy inverter validation (solar, wind)
  • Industrial motor and drive efficiency certification
  • Aerospace and defense power system qualification
  • Railway traction power analysis

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount in a WT5000 mainframe chassis (slot position configurable)
  • Ensure adequate ventilation: minimum 100 mm clearance on all sides
  • Connect via dedicated high-speed shielded cables (BNC type)
  • Ground the chassis to earth ground with impedance < 4 Ω

Usage Precautions:

  • Never exceed the maximum input voltage of 1100 V peak or current of 5.5 A peak — permanent damage will occur
  • Allow 30-minute warm-up period before performing precision measurements
  • Use only Yokogawa-approved shielded cables to maintain CMRR performance
  • Store in environment with temperature 0°C to 40°C, humidity 20% to 80% RH (non-condensing)
