Hioki Memory HiLoggers are high-speed data loggers for recording multiple chanels of voltage, current, temperature or humidity signals, providing complete isolation between channels and strong noise resistance. The LR8400-9X Series take logging to a new level by meeting applications in solar power measurement.

Estimate expected electricity production (estimated electrical energy) (*1)
Production can be measured without shutting off the circuit
Investigate module failures by identifying strings with wiring breaks and using the instrument in conjunction with a masking shield
Measure production trend
Add up to 7 more channels of clamp or temperature measurements even in PV mode (*2)

*1:Estimate the expected electricity production at the current time under continuously varying conditions of air temperature and insolation. Compare the estimate with actual electricity production.
*2:When PV mode is turned OFF, the instrument can also be used as a 30-channel data logger. When PV mode is turned OFF, optional input units can be added to expand the instrument to a maximum of 60 channels.

Input
(Fixed channels)
(Automatic setting of conversion ratio)

[unit1-ch1] Voltage measurement mode, 1 V f.s., 1000 V conversion ratio
[unit1-ch2] Current measurement mode, 1 V f.s., 1000 A conversion ratio
[unit1-ch3] Insolation measurement mode, output conversion ratio for selected Pyranometer
[unit1-ch4] Panel temperature measurement mode, K thermocouple 100°C f.s., 1°C conversion ratio

Expansion channel settings

[unit1-ch5] to [unit1-ch11] Select and add as voltage, thermocouple, or clamp (2000 A, 200 A, 100 A, 20 A, 10 A).
*[unit1-ch12] to [unit1-ch15] and [unit2-ch1] to [unit2-ch15] cannot be used in PV mode.

Equations
(Fixed channels)
(Automatic setting of equation)

[W1] Power (kW) = Voltage (Ch. 1-1) × current (Ch. 1-2)
[W2] Power integration (kWh) = Voltage (Ch. 1-1) × current (Ch. 1-2) × measurement time (h)
[W3] Estimated power (kW) = Insolation strength (Ch. 1-3) / Gs (standard test condition of 1 kW/m2) × (1 + temperature loss*1) × (1 - coefficient for other losses) × photovoltaic cell rated output (kW)
[W4] Estimated integration (kWh) = Insolation strength (Ch. 1-3) / Gs (standard test condition of 1 kW/m2) × (1 + temperature loss*1) × (1 - coefficient for other losses) × photovoltaic cell rated output (kW) × measurement time (h)
*1 Temperature loss = Photovoltaic cell maximum output temperature coefficient × (panel temperature (Ch. 1-4) - 25) / 100
[W5] AC estimated power (kW) = Estimated power (w3) × power conditioner conversion efficiency (reference value)
[W6] AC estimated integration (kWh) = Estimated energy (w4) × power conditioner conversion efficiency (reference value)
[W7] Estimated power approximation rate (%) = Energy (w2) / estimated energy (w4)
