The Source for Power Monitoring Equipment and Services
Dranetz-BMI has long been recognized as the world’s number one source for power monitoring equipment and services. From versatile handheld power quality monitors used for portable troubleshooting applications, to permanently installed systems for continuous power quality process improvement, trust the experts at Dranetz-BMI to find a solution that’s right for your business.
Power quality and reliability problems cost businesses billions of dollars each year in lost revenue, process improvements, and scrapped product. For more than 40 years, Dranetz-BMI has worked with companies, utilities, and government agencies to understand the cause of these disturbances, resolve problems, and provide proactive methods for preventing future problems. We also have a commitment to industry-wide education—sharing our knowledge through our leadership within the IEEE and other industry organizations, delivering power quality seminars, authoring technical articles, participating in professional conferences, and writing books such as The Dranetz-BMI Handbook for Power Quality Analysis.
The Dranetz-BMI series of DranTech digital meters and data loggers come with the patented automatic blocking
safety (ABS) connector jacks* and IP 52 to even IP-65 water resistant protection* to prevent accidentally damaging
the meter or injuring yourself while making 600V CAT IV and 1000V CAT III voltage* and current measurements.
Safety plus exemplary technology with the highest resolution of handheld multimeters on the market, 60,000 counts*
or more (1,200,000), auto-ranging current measurements from 10nA to 10A*, extra large display characters with analog
bar graphs on a large light-blue illuminated display of the 23 or more functions. *See instrument datasheet(s) for specific product information {more info}
