Platinum 2.5K Multi-Function Recorder

FOR GENERATION, TRANSMISSION, AND DISTRIBUTION POWER SYSTEM MONITORING

MULTI-FUNCTION
RECORDER
For all types of power system
events, the Platinum 2.5K
Multi-Function Recorder pro-
vides all the information you
need to capture the complete
picture. With the true integrated
functionality of the Platinum
2.5K, you have one place for all
your answers. Simultaneously
perform: transient recording,
disturbance recording, phasor measurements, power
quality analysis, and sequence of events recording. FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The Platinum 2.5K provides answers when you need
them with as much information as you need to get Transient fault recorder - post fault analysis
results quick. The system can operate automatically to verify protection and circuit breaker
to retrieve events and perform an expert analysis so operations, fault clearance times
you have the answers fast, saving time and money.
The Platinum 2.5K takes the place of several devices, Disturbance recorder/logger - analyze
