MI 2885 MASTER Q4 ANALYZER
MI 2885 Master Q4
The MI 2885 Master Q4 is a Class S power quality analyzer designed for diagnostics, troubleshooting, and long-term logging in three-phase and single-phase systems. It measures voltage, current, power, energy, flicker, unbalance, harmonics, and interharmonics, while also capturing voltage events and transients for later analysis in PowerView3.
Its color display, quick setup, and USB/Ethernet communication make it a useful tool for maintenance, electrical audits, and performance validation in low- and medium-voltage networks.
Measures 4 voltage channels and 4 current channels with simultaneous logging.
Analyzes harmonics and interharmonics up to the 50th order at 50/60 Hz.
Records sags, swells, undervoltages, interruptions, and transients.
Enables long-term logging campaigns with microSD memory.
Includes PowerView3 software for download, analysis, and report generation.
Supports EN 50160 assessment and IEC/EN 61000-4-30 Class S compliance.
Ideal for:
Electrical engineering and predictive maintenance in industry, energy, and infrastructure.
Diagnosis of disturbances in three-phase and single-phase networks.
Power quality, network capacity and validation studies before adding loads.
Not ideal for:
Users who only need a basic spot measurement of current or voltage, without logging or analysis.
Applications where Class A is required instead of Class S for certain regulatory environments.
Benefits
More reliable diagnosis of electrical events — captures sags, swells, undervoltages, interruptions, and transients with waveform recording.
Greater visibility of the network under real load — measures voltage, current, power, energy, power factor, cosφ, and tgφ across multiple channels.
Better analysis of disturbances associated with VFDs and inverters — supports VFD measurement from 5 Hz to 120 Hz and harmonic/interharmonic analysis.
Less time spent on field setup — intuitive menu, large icons, color-coded terminals, and automatic clamp recognition.
Extended logging campaigns without constant technician presence — general logging from 1 s to 2 h and more than 1 year of history depending on the SD card.
Data ready to support technical decisions — PowerView3 software for downloading, analyzing, and generating professional reports.
Flexibility for auditing, maintenance, and troubleshooting — suitable for energy optimization, power factor correction, and supply quality analysis.
Better integration with predictive maintenance practices — aligns with the advanced diagnostics and industrial reliability approach used by DSP Analytic.
Applications
Industry and manufacturing — problem: trips, stoppages, or intermittent failures that are difficult to reproduce; how it solves it: records voltage events, transients, harmonics, unbalance, and waveforms; result: faster identification of the electrical root cause and better-informed decisions regarding loads, protection devices, or compensation.
Energy, utilities, and internal substations — problem: uncertainty about power quality compliance or network behavior; how it solves it: EN 50160 analysis, flicker evaluation, and extended logging campaigns; result: technical evidence for internal auditing, disturbance diagnosis, and power quality traceability.
Facilities with drives and inverters — problem: harmonics, interharmonics, or behavior outside nominal frequency in VFDs; how it solves it: measures VFDs from 5 Hz to 120 Hz, analyzes harmonics/interharmonics, and evaluates power; result: better visibility into the impact of converters, variable-speed drives, and inverters on the network.
Facility management, hospitals, and critical buildings — problem: degraded power quality affecting continuity of operation; how it solves it: records disturbances, inrush current, and trends; result: shorter diagnostic time and better support for prioritizing corrective actions.

Frequently Asked Questions
For voltage, it operates with a nominal range of 50 to 1000 V RMS L-N and an accuracy of ±0.1% of nominal voltage under IEC 61000-4-30 Class S. For current, performance depends on the selected clamp or transducer.
Yes. The published kits include a calibration certificate. The specific accreditation, validity period, and scope of the certificate should be confirmed at the quotation stage.
It communicates via USB and Ethernet and uses PowerView3 for download and analysis. Direct integration with SCADA, EMS, BMS, or ERP platforms should be validated case by case.
It can be powered from 110 to 240 Vac or by 6 AA NiMH batteries. It is rated CAT IV / 600 V and CAT III / 1000 V. It must be installed following electrical safety practices and proper clamp selection.
Yes. It supports VFD measurements from 5 Hz to 120 Hz, in addition to functions geared toward harmonic analysis and even photovoltaic inverter performance measurements.
It is advisable when a robust analyzer is needed for troubleshooting, logging campaigns, and Class S power quality analysis. If a contractual or regulatory requirement calls for Class A, another model should be evaluated.
