1.1 Feature Outline
Starting and Ending Recording
Start recording normally or start by
following the Quick Start Navigation,
which guides you through the
necessary setup for recording.
See “Starting and Stopping
Recording.”
Displaying Instantaneous, Integrated,
and Demand
Displays instantaneous, average,
maximum and minimum values for
current, voltage, active power, apparent
power, and reactive power. Switch the
screen to display integrated values. Set
a demand target value and display the
demand values from start to finish.
See “Displaying Instantaneous,
Integrated, and Demand.”
Displaying Vectors and
Checking the Wiring
Displays a vector diagram of
voltage and current for the
measurement channel and
checks the wiring.
See “Vector.”

Displaying Waveforms
Displays waveforms of voltage
and current for the
measurement channel. See
“Waveforms.”
Harmonic Analysis
Displays harmonic components
superimposed on the voltage
and current for the measurement
channel.
See “Harmonic Analysis.”
Displaying Power Supply
Quality Events
Displays the swell, dip,
interruption, transient, inrush
current, and flicker of the
measured voltage.
See “Power Supply Quality.”

1.2 Features
This product is a clamp-type power quality analyzer that supports a
variety of wiring systems. It simultaneously performs simulations of
instantaneous values, integrated values, demand values for power
management, harmonic analysis, power quality events, and phase lead
capacitor values for improving the power factor. Voltage and current can
be displayed as waveforms and vectors.
Measured data can be saved to files in SD memory cards or internal memory,
and the files can be transferred to a PC through USB communication.
Safety Design
This product complies with safety standard IEC 61010-1 CAT. IV 300V/
CAT. III 600V/CAT. II 1000V.
Power Quality Measurement
This product supports international power quality measurement standard
IEC61000-4-30 Class S. It can perform highly accurate frequency
and rms voltage measurements and harmonic analysis as well as
simultaneously measure without gaps swell, dip, interruption, transient,
inrush current, and flicker that are necessary for capturing and monitoring
power abnormalities.
Power Measurement
This product can measure active, reactive, and apparent powers as well
as watt-hour, power factor, rms current, phase angle, and neutral line
current.
Wiring Systems
This product supports single-phase two-wire (four systems), single-phase
three-wire (two systems), three-phase three-wire (two systems), and
three-phase four-wire measurement lines.
Demand Measurement
You can monitor in a simplified form the usage condition so that the
specified target value (contract demand) is not exceeded.

1-4 IM CW500-01EN
Waveform and Vector Displays
Voltage and current can be displayed as waveforms and vectors.
Saving Measured Data
This product is equipped with a logging function whose recording interval
can be specified. Measured data can be saved manually or by specifying
the date and time. Further, the print screen function can be used to save
image data to SD memory cards.
Dual Power System
This product can be driven by AC power or batteries. For batteries, AA
alkaline batteries (LR6) or off-the-shelf rechargeable AA nickel-metal
hydride batteries (Ni-MH) can be used. For rechargeable AA nickel-metal
hydride (Ni-MH) batteries, use the battery manufacturer’s charger to
charge them. You cannot charge them on the CW500. If a power failure
occurs while the CW500 is running off of AC power, the power supply is
automatically switched to battery power.
Display Screen
This product has a color TFT LCD.
Easy Wiring and Compact, Lightweight Design
Wiring is easy as this product is a clamp type. Its compact, lightweight
design makes it convenient to install and carry around.
Application
Files saved in SD memory cards and internal memory can be downloaded
to a PC through USB. Downloaded files can be analyzed easily using the
accompanying PC software. It is also possible to configure the CW500
from a PC.
Auxiliary I/O Function
The 2-channel analog input (DC voltage) can be used to simultaneously
measure analog signals from thermometers, lux meters, and the like.
If a power quality event occurs, a contact signal can be sent to an alarm
through the 1-channel digital output.
