Agilent/Keysight PA2201A

The Keysight PA2201A IntegraVision Power Analyzer combines oscilloscope and power analyzer functionality in a single instrument for precise AC, DC, and AC+DC power measurements. Engineers gain simultaneous voltage, current, and power waveform capture with 16-bit resolution across two measurement channels, enabling real-time insight into power consumption, conversion efficiency, and dynamic performance. The dual-channel architecture supports single-phase AC and balanced three-phase applications, with basic accuracy of 0.05% at 50/60 Hz and true RMS calculations even with non-sinusoidal waveforms and DC offsets.
