General instrumentation like oscilloscopes, data acquisition (DAQ) systems, and digital multimeters (DMMs) are not ideal for making traceable and accurate electrical power measurements in complex systems like EVs.
Purpose-built power analyzers are designed to capture core parameters like voltage, current, and power, along with additional parameters specific to the system being tested.
Yokogawa Test&Measurement experts, Coty Harrison and Cristian Loris, emphasize the importance of using purpose-built power analyzers in EV system development for accurate measurements and efficient performance.
For EV traction motor design, power analyzers play a crucial role in measuring power accurately, optimizing efficiency, and assessing parameters like torque, speed, and power factor.
Power analyzers are used during the validation stage of EV systems to ensure products meet performance expectations before mass production, providing exact power measurements for parts.
Yokogawa's WT series power analyzers offer isolated voltage inputs, accurate current measurement capabilities, and features like multi-motor system support and fast sampling rates for EV engineers.
Power analyzers find applications not only in the EV industry but also in industrial motor development to enhance efficiency, reduce energy usage, and lower costs.
Yokogawa experts assist EV systems engineers in selecting the right testing products for their applications and help customize and implement these tools effectively.
Yokogawa's rigorous power analyzers with high accuracy and advanced features are vital for measuring key parameters in EV systems, optimizing efficiency, and ensuring reliable performance.
Industry experts Coty Harrison and Cristian Loris from Yokogawa Test&Measurement provide insights on the importance of purpose-built power analyzers in making precise and reliable measurements for EV systems.
