4 In order topreserve these characteristics and to insure safeoperation, the user must follow the instructionscontained in this performing any service operation, repairing,part replacement or battery substitution, theinstrument must be disconnected from any determining that the instrument is not operatingcorrectly, it must be withdrawn from service andcautions must be taken to prevent operation is not recommended whenany of the following conditions may occur:- the instrument exhibits clear damage- The instrument doesn't operate at all- After a long storage period in unfavorable After suffering damages during transportationRead this manual carefully before installing andusing the instrument. The instrument described in this manual has beendesigned to be used by qualified personnel.

5 Serviceor troubleshooting operations must be conductedby authorized personnel only. In order to guaranty safe operation [of the instrument],it is necessary that the service personnel complywith standard safety procedures duringtroubleshooting and repairing 7 NANOVIP is a portable instrument that enables youto measure: Voltage (volt rms), Current (amp rms) Cos , Active Power (watt), Reactive Power(var), Apparent Power (VA), Frequency (hertz).DC voltages can be measured directly by means ofthe safety voltage leads provided with the currents can be measured using the Hall effectcurrent clamps, available from includes also two functions (PEAK andMEM) which are very useful in analyzing PEAK function enables you to measure themaximum/minimum values* obtained by theinstrument referring to the instant in which the push-button PEAK was pressed, for any of the 3 followingmeasurements: (Max.)

6 Value) (Max. value) (Min. value)which can be selected in the sequence shown aboveusing the SEL push-button. See note - Pag. 21 The function MEM enables you to measure anddisplay the differences between the present valuesof Volts, Amperes, and Watt and the values inmemory. (Stored when the MEM push-button ispressed). The NANOVIP is a very portable instrument ofergonomic design, product of ELCONTROL experience in the design of Power instrumentationsystems. The NANOVIP provides accuratemeasurements in the 7W to 150 KW power rangewith a 200A/1 V current clamp; and from 35W to750 kW in single-phase connection with a 1000A/1V current clamp ( MW in threephaseconnection).It has a system that automatically recognizes thetype of current clamp, and switches between thetwo types of current clamps, making its operationextremely simple.

7 READ THE INSTRUCTIONS ! " # # When the operator suspects that the equipment isnot safe, for example, due to demange sustainedduring transportation, or during routine operation,it must be withdrawn from service, and unintentionaloperation must be prevented. Qualified personnelmust be called for troubleshooting and repairing. $ " % # After ensuring that the instrument is isolated ordisconnected from supply and measurement circuits,the outside of the container may be cleaned usinga soft damp cloth (water only). Do not use abrasivesor solvents. Never allow water to wet the terminalsor enter the 1: LCD for displaying the measurements : SEL push-button for selection of the maximum/minimum quantity* (V, I, W) that the user desires to : PEAK push-button to display the Voltage (V); Current (I) and Active Power (W).

8 4: MEM push-button to recall the function of the same name. The function MEM enables you to measure and display the differences between thepresent values of Volts, Amperes, and Watt andthe values in memory. (Stored when the MEM push-button is pressed).5: PAG. push-button to select between the two measurement pages that display the seven fundamental quantities. When the PEAK functionis active, it enables display of the second measurement page referring to maximum/minimum values. When the MEM function is active, it provides the capability of displaying the differences corresponding to the second : ON/OFF : 3 1 switch. Switch position must correspondto the kind of system where the instrument is being used. (3 =three-phase, 1 =single-phase)8 The ELCONTROL NANOVIP offers a set of featureswhich are useful to a wide spectrum of usersincluding plant designers, electricians, etc.

9 Duringapplications that include troubleshooting, operation,or remodeling of existing plants. It is also very usefulto electrical energy users who desire to gain a betterunderstanding of plant NANOVIP set of features enable you to performadditional applications which include: Control of loads and consumption; Reduce overload and losses in the plant; Verify (while in service) the correct design of newplants; Prevent the risks of overheating and lack of isolationin the plant; Solve in an efficient way the problems of power factor; Detection and reduction of peaks of load and power consumption; Control of UPS systems by measuring the AC atthe inputs and outputs; Measurement in presence of distorting signals.

10 See note - Pag. 21 ACVoltAkWCos P. 124635711 The tab located on the rear panel can be pulled andused as support to place the instrument on a workingsurface. The NANOVIP is provided with an ABS antishockprotective cover signed to permit the insertion ofone of the test probes as shown in Fig. 1: Voltage input terminals. The safety voltage leadsinclude test probes with protective cover and protected banana : Current Clamp input socket. 1: Adjustable support for the instrument on a : Battery compartment cover, with multilingual labeland characteristics of the batteries to be : Battery compartment for powering the instrument(Four AA batteries). 21321 13 After receiving the instrument, please verify that thepackage is complete and check for damaged parts(during transport).
