DR-300 Multi-Function Recorder

DR-300 Multi-Function Recorder
The DR-300 is the only tool you need to capture and diagnose power system anomalies, and meets regulatory compliances including PRC-002-2. With multiple recording modes and continuous transient oscillography, you will never miss an event. The DR-300 captures high speed transients and long term system disturbances with enough memory to give you a complete view of the system disturbance. While simple and quick to set up and diagnose a fault; it has the power to analyze complex system anomalies.

Multi-Function Capability
The DR-300 takes the place of several devices:
    • Fault and Disturbance Recorder
    • Transient Fault Recorder
    • Phasor Measurement Unit
    • Power Quality Monitor
    • Sequence of Events Recorder

Field Proven Technology - never miss an event
The core strength of AMETEK Recorders is the extensive triggering and recording capabilities to ensure you never miss an event. The DR-300 has a 64 GB solid state drive for recording high resolution data at longer durations. The flexible triggering options make it easy to capture a simple fault or uncover a complex system anomaly. Independent of any triggers, the Transient Oscillography feature provides continuous waveform recording for up to 4 days* to capture events that are too sensitive for your triggers or to extend your pre and post fault data recorded.

High Reliability
The DR-300 is a highly reliable solid state design that incorporates a low-power fan-less operation with no moving parts. Each chassis can be equipped with a redundant power supply which can operate from the same or different power source. Input modules are hot-swappable and each one has its own dedicated processor for independent monitoring. Multiple independent Ethernet ports support simultaneous connections for reliable network communications and secure data transfers. 

Current Interface
The Current Interface provides internally mounted shunts to simplify any digital fault recorder installation and associated current input wiring requirements. This minimizes on-site technician time and provides a cost-effective solution that is designed to save money and maximize resource utilization. Visit our Current Interface page to see why it is the most cost-effective solution when paired with the DR-300.
