AVERAGE MEASUREMENT MODE These meters are capable of both RMS and Average Reading (RMS adjusted) measurement modes: RMS (Root-Mean-Square) Mode – RMS current can be thought of as the equivalent DC current required to dissipate a given amount of energy in a resistive load. Benefit of RMS measurements: - Provides an indication of delivered power, independent of the exact waveform being measured - Comparable with most high-quality handheld multimeters that tend to adapt RMS measurement RMS Measurement Signal Flow. Average-Reading mode – is a measurement of the average rectified value of the current waveform. Since the resultant measurement differs from that of RMS, it is typically ‘adjusted’ to match what an RMS value would be if it were measuring a sinusoidal waveform. The benefit of this measurement mode is it enables DMR35 meters to provide measurements comparable to those provided by many electro-mechanical analog meters. RMS-adjusted Average Measurement Signal Flow Note that both measurement modes adapt a digital high-pass filter, placed after the ADC, to remove any DC bias from the input signal and generate a signal that is symmetric about zero. As a result, these meters only measure the AC component of the input signal, and not the DC component – a DC signal presented to the meter will read as zero. Significant amounts of DC input signal, however, may force the meter’s ADC into over-range and reduce measurement accuracy. For this reason, the DMR35-ACA/mA series of meters should not be used to measure currents having a significant DC component. ## Crest Factor When making AC measurements, the shape of the waveform to be measured can influence the measurement results. One of the most basic metrics used to quantify waveform shape is crest factor, which is defined as the ratio between the waveform’s peak value and its RMS value. **==> picture [126 x 25] intentionally omitted <==** - www.murata ps.com DMR35-ACA.A01.D04 Page 7 of 11 AC Ammeter ## /nRata Murata Power Solutions| Ps ## - DMR35 ACA/mA Series ## (CONTINUED): ~~ee~~ RMS MEASUREMENT MODE VS.

It illustrates the extent RMS-adjusted average measurement can vary significantly in relation to the RMS measurement for signals with non-sinusoidal waveforms.

DMR35 AC meters are designed to handle signals with crest factors up to 3 with minimal additional measurement errors. - www.murata ps.com DMR35-ACA.A01.D04 Page 8 of 11 AC Ammeter ## [suuRata| Ps ## - DMR35 ACA/mA Series (CONTINUED): ~~a~~ RMS MEASUREMENT MODE VS. AVERAGE MEASUREMENT MODE. Frequency Response, Crest Factor, and Accuracy DMR35 AC meters are designed to accurately measure signals typically seen in 50/60 Hz AC systems. For sinusoidal input waveforms, the measurement error typically varies less than ± 1 % over the range of 20 Hz to 120 Hz, as shown in the graph below. **==> picture [344 x 188] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Typical Measurement Error vs. Frequency,<br>Sinusoidal Input<br>10%<br>5%<br>0%<br>-5%<br>-10%<br>-15%<br>-20%<br>-25%<br>-30%<br>10 100 1000<br>Frequency (Hz)<br>Measurement Error (%)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> Since more complex waveforms contain higher frequency components and varying crest factors, the expected accuracy can vary considerably as a function of both frequency and waveform.

Calibration DMR35 digital panel meters are calibrated at the factory at the time of manufacture. There are no user or field-adjustable calibration features. ## 2. Wiring Power supply and input wiring must be rated for the electrical and environmental conditions under which the meter will be operated. They must also comply with any regulatory or application-mandated requirements pertaining to the user’s installation. The terminal blocks can accommodate wire gauges ranging from #14 to #24 AWG. Wiring insulation should be stripped to the proper length as described in the Terminal Block specifications table and wires must be inserted into the terminal block openings such that the screw terminal does not pinch any insulation. It is important to tighten all screw terminals to their torque specification, which also may be found in the Terminal Block specifications table. Proper tightening will help ensure reliable operation. Applications subject to vibration should use stranded wire. After final assembly, inspect all terminal block connections for shorts between adjacent conductors; this step is especially important when using stranded wire. ## 3. Protection and Fusing DMR35 meters’ power supply leads (PWRA, PWRB) are protected against momentary overvoltage and reverse polarity conditions. Input terminals INA and INB are protected against noise and brief transients. Protection, however, is not provided against sustained conditions exceeding the limits listed in in the Performance & Functional Specifications Table. External fusing must be supplied by the user in accordance with applicable safety and regulatory requirements for the system in which the meter is installed. ## 4. Noisy Power Supplies Some power supplies contain high-frequency switching devices that may conduct and/or radiate significant noise onto the low-level signal developed across the measurement inputs. Even though the meter incorporates built-in input filtering, some portion of this noise may be amplified and subsequently measured by its sensitive input circuitry. Limiting runs of wire to less than 3 meters (10 feet) is strongly recommended. In certain situations, the use of twisted pair or shield wiring may be required. ## 5. Self-Diagnostics Upon power-on the meter performs a self-test and checks the integrity of calibration data stored in internal non-volatile memory. If the factory calibration data has been corrupted, the meter will display ‘CAL’ on power-on and approximately once a minute thereafter to indicate that the meter is relying on default calibration factors and that displayed measurements may have more than the datasheet-specified amount of error. If the meter detects other internal fault conditions, it will attempt to reset itself. Repeated restarts, which appear in the form of a highly intermittent display, are indicative of a hardware fault that cannot be cleared through a reset operation, in which case the meter should no longer be used. - www.murata ps.com DMR35-ACA.A01.D04 Page 10 of 11 ## |muRata |Ps Murata Power Solutions ## - DMR35 ACA/mA Series AC Ammeter STANDARD PACKAGING, NOMINAL DIMENSIONS ~~OO~~ Murata Power Solutions, Inc. 129 Flanders Rd.
