Introduction

Event Overview

Along with the level persiangan increasingly competitive today, each company seeks to keep its customers in the long run. In order to survive in the face of this competition, a company must be able to establish the trust of its customers that the company is a company that has the quality and the quality of the resulting product to the customer. Forming a consumer confidence in the company is certainly not an easy thing. 

Therefore, it is necessary to communication because communication has unwittingly become an important part in human life. As a form of concern with the customers, PT. Tridinamika Jaya Instrument will mean in organizing an event called Fluke National agenda Customer Summit 2014 with the theme "Predictive Maintenance For Better Productivity". The purpose of this activity is held as a forum to establish good relationships, exchange information, and to know the opinion of the company in the eyes of the customer. The hope by organizing this event, the company can continue to grow and also create a new innovation in accordance with its mission statement by the company is to innovate, with a passion for excellence is always better company, delivering superior products combined with skilled technical service, PT. Tridinamika able to be the center of the instrument that provides a wide range of brands and products from around the world of test and measurement instruments. With consistency will be given the best service and the performance of the company continues to increase making Tridinamika be superior to other distributors agents in Indonesia.

An Insight into Power Quality Analyzers and Spectrum Analyzers

Various analyzers are used in instrumentation be it homes, electrical substations, laboratories or industries. Some analyze voltages and currents while others are meant for acoustics and optical waveforms. Power quality analyzers and spectrum analyzers are suitable examples!

The quality of power supplied to an electrical system and consumed by it are one of the paramount factors that determine the cost and reliability of the system. Poor power quality simply translates to issues like overheating, blackouts and burnouts, falsely tripped circuit breakers and even severely damaging conditions. Not only are they used in bigger industries and stations but, power analyzers have now become one of the vitals in household electrical systems too. Power analyzers, when installed in homes can curb power wastage by a great factor.

A Power Quality Analyzer basically calculates power demand, actual consumption and power cleanliness. While the demand and consumption may be easier of the three aspects to understand by the name itself, power cleanliness is a bit tricky. Non-linear loads result in irregular spikes and dips in voltage and current in any electrical system. These fluctuating loads cause harmonics in the system which is the measure of power cleanliness. A power quality analyzer measures all these factors and is able to identify average power, fundamental harmonics and everything required to provide the electrical system with a stable and clean supply of power.

A spectrum analyzer can also investigate the composition of an electrical signal. However, spectrum analyzers are not used for household supply analysis. Spectrum analyzers, much suited in the hands of scientists and researchers, can examine electrical, optical and acoustic wave forms by measuring their fundamental elements.

Spectrum analyzers measure any signal in reference with its frequency and amplitude. There are analog spectrum analyzers and digital spectrum analyzers. While the former uses band pass filters, the latter makes use of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to break down waves into their fundamental components. These digitized components of a wave make it easier for a computer or measurement system to make precise measurements or apply the transformations.

Variety of Oscilloscopes and Calibrators from Tektronix

Tektronix, one of the most trusted brands in the measurement industry, has been making testing, debugging and analyzing designs easier for engineers for a very long time now. Offering a myriad of digital oscilloscopes with an equally extensive collection of available product features and analysis capability, Tektronix manages to provide the buyers with just the right oscilloscope in accord with the need.

As most of you reading this space might know, a digital oscilloscope is used to analyze electrical signals. All sorts of inputs, electrical or non-electrical (that need to be converted into electrical signals) can be studied as sinusoidal voltages. Oscilloscopes are used to observe changes in these signals with respect to time. Parameters and properties such as frequency, amplitude, distortion, rise time, were calculated by analyzing the oscilloscope generated plots against calibrated scale. However, newer digital instruments are capable of calculating and displaying such properties directly.

Tektronix offers a wide series of oscilloscopes appropriate for advanced signal analysis, sampling, mixed signal and mixed domain analysis along with basic, battery powered and handheld oscilloscopes.



Calibration is one of the crucial processes required to be done before any testing or analysis. The process involves comparison of an instrument’s measurement against set standards of measurements in order to ensure precision of the desired device. Even oscilloscopes themselves need calibration. Nevertheless, an oscilloscope can be used for the process of calibration too. Tektronix also provides oscilloscope calibrators suitable for calibrating various instruments.

If you seek to calibrate a thermometer, some oscilloscope calibrator models from the brand are capable of simulating a number of thermocouple types and RTDs, thus covering the calibration requirements of most of electronic thermometers. A wide range of temperature and available options for conversion algorithms make calibrating thermometers easier than ever. Oscilloscope calibrators offer an option of temperature entry in Centigrade, degree Fahrenheit or Kelvin.

Laser Particle Counters and Digital Battery Testers

We live in the age of technology so advanced that there are gadgets available to measure virtually everything. Measuring instruments have now become of even greater significance because not just laboratories and industries see their use but you might end up needed one for a very regular household purpose. Let’s take a look at two such devices – Particle Counter and a Digital Batter Tester.

Handheld Condensation Particle Counter Model 3800


Starting with the very fundamental question – What is a particle counter? The term basically refers to a laser based device that is used to detect and count the number of entities/particles in a particular media. The media being anything viz. air, gasses, liquids or chemicals or even surfaces. The purpose of a particle counter is to determine how clean the tested media. The information is thus used for processes like water treatment, food or drug production or manufacturing microchips. However, different particle counters are required depending on the type of media. These are Airborne/Aerosol, Liquid or Gas Particle Counters. On the basis of portability, these are classified as Handheld, Portable or Remote Particle Counters.

Now, coming to battery testers and answering the same basic question, a battery tester examines a battery and determines the remaining power and battery life. While some batteries come with an inbuilt battery tester, other devices have a tester installed in the whole system and the third kind of battery testers is portable which makes it flexible to examine various batteries.

These testers can be analog or digital. A battery tester digital uses numeric LED display. When the tester’s test slot or leads are made to contact the positive and negative electrodes of the battery, the digital display lets the user know the amount of power left in the battery being tested. While smaller testers measure in the unit of milliampere-hours (mAh), large cells are measured in ampere-hours (Ah).
