Portable Event & Data Logger
-
The EDL180 Portable Event & Data Logger measures, records and analyzes events and data of electrical network parameters. Being mobile, it enhances efficiency by enabling onsite identification of power problems. The EDL180 meets the requirements of a wide range of applications, from event analysis to energy auditing and load profile recording over a set time period.
-
The EDL180 parameters include all the measurement and logging capabilities of the PM180 power quality analyzer in a convenient, portable case. The manufacturer’s PAS software suite, available online, is provides graphic data display and power quality analysis capabilities.
-
The EDL180 is suitable for direct measurement of voltages up to 828V AC (or greater when using a Potential Transformer). The EDL180 is provided with standard current clamps featuring a range of options between 30-3,000A AC nominal current with nominal 2V AC or 3V AC outputs. The starting measured current of the flex cables provided by SATEC is 10A AC.
-
Internal UPS for independent power supply The EDL180 has an internal UPS providing over 4 hours of power supply during loss of external power, such as during a general power failure.
NOTE: -
Device configuration and complementary technical specifications are identical to those of the PM180. See the PM180 Installation and Operation Manuals for full connection drawings and instructions.

Installation/wiring
Read through this section carefully before connecting the EDL180 to the
circuits being
tested/analyzed.
-
Location
The distance between the EDL180 and the current lines must be at least half a meter (1.6 feet) for current lines carrying up to 600A, and at least one meter (3.3 feet) for currents between 600A and 3,000A. -
Power Supply and UPS Charging
Connect the EDL180 to AC power supply using the Power Supply Cord provided. Turn the power switch (No. 3) ON.
Once the unit is connected to an external power supply, the UPS battery automatically starts charging, regardless of whether the unit is powered on or not. -
LED Charging Indicators
The unit features 4 LEDs: 3 indicating battery level (13) and one indicating charging status (14): red = charging; blue = full. -
Voltage Probes Connection
For voltage readings use the supplied voltage probes. connect the voltage probes’ outputs to the EDL180 through the voltage 4mm sockets marked V1/V2/V3/VN. Connect the probes to the power line conductors according to the power system configuration / siring mode (See figure 2 below). For alternative line configurations please consult the PM180 installation manual.
WARNING: the voltage between phases (V1, V2, V3) must not exceed 828V. -
Current Sensors Connection
Connect the current sensors’ outputs first to the EDL180 and then to the measured circuits, by either wrapping the probe around the line or via clamp, in accordance with ordered/supplied model. -
Standard FLEX Current Sensors
The EDL180 can work with all FLEX and clamp current sensors featuring a voltage output up to 6V AC.
However, for locally sourced sensors, make sure to contact the manufacturer for confirmation of compliance and instructions. -
Configuring Wiring Mode and CT Ratings
The wiring mode of the EDL180 is the same as for the PM180. See standard example below (figure 2). For alternative line configurations please refer to the PM180 Installation and PM180 Operation manuals (separate documents).
Figure 2 Four wire WYE Direct connection, using 3 CTs (3-element) wiring mode
Configuring CT values: For the coil ranging 30-3,000A AC, featuring CT
ratio output of 1kA/1V AC, nominal current is determined on coil integrator by
scale switch (image 3 below) and must be set in unit according to selection.
For the permanently rated 200A clamp, featuring CT ratio of 1.5kA/1V AC
nominal current, nominal current must be adjusted and set at 300A and NOT at
the presumed 200A.
- Nominal current is set in the device either via RGM screen or via PAS as described in the manuals mentioned below.
- Configuration using the RGM180 front Panel
- For configuration of the wiring mode and CT values via the RGM180 front panel, refer to the Wiring Setup instructions in the RGM180 QuickStart Manual.
- Configuration using PAS software
- For configuration via Power Analysis Software (PAS) please refer to the above PM180 manuals.
Internal Uninterrupted Power Supply
- The EDL180 includes a rechargeable UPS. When fully charged, the UPS allows the EDL180 to work for over 4 hours at maximum consumption. It is recommended to switch off the unit when not in use to prevent discharge. However, discharge has not been reported to harm the UPS battery.
Specification
- Power supply: 90-264V AC @ 50-60Hz
- UPS Battery Pack: rechargeable; 3.7V * 15,000mAh DC. Tested for over 4 hours of power of full consumption/burden (unit + RGM screen).
- UPS characteristics:
- Battery output voltage 3.7V *3 = 11.1V
- Over charge protection
- Over discharge protection
- Over current protection
- Over discharge protection
- Short protection
- Accuracy: The EDL180 accuracy is set by the combined accuracies of the PM180, current clamps and the PT, if used. The common factors are the unit accuracy and that of the current clamps, which are the dominant factor.
- Operation temperature : 0-60℃
- Humidity: 0 to 95% non-condensing
- Dimensions (facing front panel):
