Graphtec GL2000 High Speed Data Logger

Graphtec GL2000 High Speed Data Logger

The GL2000 is a 4 channel standalone data logger suitable for high voltage and true RMS monitoring. The logger has 4 channels capable of logging AC voltages up to 1000V (CAT III up to 600vAC). Analogue inputs are also suitable for use with K, J, E, T, R, S, B, N and W Type Thermocouples. The GL2000 comes with a wide 7" wide TFT colour LCD with waveform or digital options. 4 individual A/D converters allow all 4 channels to be logged at 1µs to the internal memory and at 100kHz to an external memory, USB or SD memory card. The Trigger function allows the unit to wait for a specific input value to start and stop logging, limiting high speed logging to capture specific data for fault diagnosis.

 

High speed 1 MS/s simultaneous sampling with isolated input

GL2000 is equipped with an isolated input mechanism to protect signals from interference caused by noise from other channels. 16-bit A/D converter adopted to achieve hi-speed and hi-resolution measurement.

 

Simultaneous sampling

GL2000 utilizes simultaneous sampling to eliminate slowdown in sampling rate by using multiple A/D converters in simultaneous sampling method. Four individual A/D converters in each channel sustains the maximum sampling speed for all four channels to measure high speed rapid voltage fluctuation and multi-channel vibration measurement.

Sampling interval: 1 µs to 1 min (in steps of 1, 2, 5)

External sampling function

Sampling of the logger is performed in sync with an external device using an external signal input.

Maximum input frequency: 100 kHz

* B-513 Input/Output cable for GL is required.

 

Multi-function input with CAT III measurement category

Voltage, temperature, humidity, logic and pulse measurements can all be taken simultaneously in high speed.

Multifunction Input

CAT III 600 V is compatible with measuring power supply circuit in an equipment that captures power directly from the distribution panel.

CAT III Diagram

Measures abnormalities in a repeated waveform by effectively measuring the corresponding RMS value

  • In 1000 Vrms range, Crest Factor is up to 1.41
    * Maximum rated safety voltage: 600 V rms, Peak voltage: 850V
  • In other range, Crest Factor is up to 2.0

RMS Values

Scaling (Engineering unit) function

Measured voltage value can be converted to a specified engineering unit. The value can be displayed with the physical measurement value of the sensor and be saved into the data file with the converted values.

Scaling Function

Calculation function between channels

Four arithmetic operations (Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) are available using two analog input channels.
* Data can be saved only in GBD file format.

Quick and Easy Set Up Process

Simple operation with cursor and enter keys, and menu-driven operation with six pre-set menu screens: AMP, DATA, DISP, TRIG, I/F (Interface) and OTHER.
Setup Process

Other helpful functions

Delivers reliable measurements out at a location with unstable power supply.

Equipped with three types of options for power source, AC adapter, DC input, and battery pack. With a battery pack, GL2000 runs continuously for approximately 3 hours. If an AC power failure occurs, it will automatically switch from the AC adapter to the battery pack. Additionally, when the battery pack is drained, measurements will automatically stop after saving the data file preserving the accumulated data. (Requires two battery packs (B-569 option) installed.)

Instrument is in compliance with JIS Vibration Test Method for Automobile Type 1 Class A. (Vibration durability test: 5 m/s²)
