As a leading supplier of power meters with highest precision, even at low power factors and high bandwidth we are proud to exhibit our products at the upcoming exhibitions. We’ll demonstrate best practices for the measurement of electrical values, optionally linked with mechanical parameters.

High currents and voltages, highly efficient inverters and wireless battery charging are challenging projects for development, production and quality assurance and require precise measuring instruments.

We would appreciate the opportunity to meet you in person at these upcoming events:

• Hannover Industriemesse 2012, Hanover, April 23^rd – 27^th
• PCIM 2012, Nürnberg, Nuremberg, May 8^th – 20^th
• Sensor+Test 2012, Nuremberg, May 22^nd – 24^th
• CWIEME 2012, Berlin, June 26^th – 28^th
• eCarTec 2012, Munich, October 23^rd – 25^th
• electronica 2012, Munich, November 13^th – 16^th
• SPS/IPC/Drives 2012, Nuremberg November 27^th – 29^th
• CTI Symposium & Expo 2012, Berlin, December 03^rd – 06^th

Electrical installations, systems and devices which are to be marketed within the European Union (EU) must comply with the European Union directives and regulations. The manufacturer resp. the importer is obliged to verify and mandatorily declare this with the CE mark. Amongst others, directives concerning electromagnetic compatibility and environmentally suitable designs of energy-using products (e.g. the European Directive 2009/125/EC on ecodesign) have to be adhered and implemented.

Harmonics and flicker test

The ZES ZIMMER compliance test system CE-Test61k allows to test products interferences towards the power distribution system caused by current harmonics in accordance with EN 61000-3-2/-12 and flicker in accordance with EN 61000-3-3/-11 (directive 2004/108/EU). Additionally it is possible to measure and document perturbations of the public power system in the frequency range from 2 kHz to 9 kHz according to EN 61000-4-7 annex B.

Stand-by power compliance test

The ZES ZIMMER CE-Test-Standby system offers monitoring the power consumption in standby mode of home appliances, IT devices and similar equipment. The system tests conformity with the requirements of the EU directive on ecodesign 2009/125/EU, in conjunction with regulation 1275/2008 and in accordance with IEC/EN 62301. The different components of the system – the precision power measurement devices LMG95 and LMG500, current and voltage sensors as well as power sources – can easily be integrated into other test systems such as dedicated efficiency or consumption measurement in more general operations.
