The Schaffner Group is releasing SchaffnerPQS3, a major updated version of its acclaimed power quality simulator. Using the free and intuitive SchaffnerPQS3, power quality topics such as harmonics caused by nonlinear loads can be quantified and documented comprehensively. In addition realistic performance simulations of mitigation tools such as Schaffner ecosine power quality filters can be conducted
The SchaffnerPQS3 is a power quality simulation tool for planners, consultants and application engineers, it enables the accurate modelling and simulation of low voltage 3-phase network topologies including simulation of power, current and voltage at all network nodes. Users can simulate complex power networks and get rapid answers on how to solve power quality issues with the help of the broad Power Quality product portfolio of the Schaffner Group. In addition it offers comprehensive report functions and features compliance checking with all relevant international power quality standards.
In addition to the updated and more intuitive new design, SchaffnerPQS3 is more robust, reliable, flexible and easier to use in comparison with earlier versions, and it features the following upgrades:
The updated SchaffnerPQS3 is particularly suitable for systems with variable speed drives. Once a user sets up an account, they can immediately start using this powerful tool free of charge.
