Unipower UP-2210 Power Quality Measure Unit

Unipower UP-2210 Power Quality Measurement Unit

The Unipower UP-2210 is a power quality measurement unit designed for permanent installation at substations, industrial sites, and connection points where continuous, accurate power quality data is needed for compliance, energy management, and operational decision-making. Powerpoint Engineering supplies the UP-2210 to Irish utilities, renewable site operators, energy managers, and electrical contractors who want a fixed-installation PQ meter that feeds the Unipower PQ Secure central management system.

Where the portable Unilyzer 900 is the right choice for a PQ campaign or troubleshooting visit, the UP-2210 is the unit you install once and leave in place. It records the same family of power quality parameters, in the same data format, into the same PQ Secure system, so a single utility can run a fleet of UP-2210 meters across many substations and trend results centrally.

What the UP-2210 measures

• Voltage and current across all three phases plus neutral, with high-resolution sampling.
• Active, reactive, and apparent power, total and per phase.
• Power factor and frequency, suitable for grid-connected and tariff-based applications.
• Harmonic distortion across the spectrum required for EN 50160 reporting and beyond.
• Voltage dips, swells, transients, and interruptions, with high-resolution event capture and timestamping.
• Energy values, supporting integration with energy meters and energy monitoring systems.
• Flicker (Pst, Plt) for installations sensitive to incoming voltage variations.

Recorded data and events are pushed to the Unipower PQ Secure system, which automatically aggregates UP-2210 units to the central database, runs compliance reports, and surfaces alarms and trends across the fleet.

How the UP-2210 fits into PQ Secure

The UP-2210 unit works as part of a wider Unipower power quality monitoring architecture. Each UP-2210 captures and stores PQ data locally; the PQ Secure system then collects that data centrally, where the management system handles compliance reports, trending, and alarm distribution. For utilities running a network code obligation across many substations, this fleet-style architecture is the practical way to meet the reporting requirement without a daily site visit.

Target users and applications

• Utilities and DNOs deploying UP-2210 fleets across the distribution network for compliance and operational PQ monitoring
• Renewable site operators monitoring PQ at wind, solar, and BESS connection points
• Industrial energy managers running PQ monitoring on supply incomers as part of energy and reliability programmes
• Large commercial sites with sensitive loads where PQ events affect operations
• Electrical contractors installing PQ infrastructure on behalf of asset owners

Typical applications include long-term EN 50160 compliance logging at substation feeders, generation connection-point PQ monitoring, large-site PQ surveillance, and any installation where the data has to feed a central management system rather than be collected manually. Powerpoint Engineering supplies the UP-2210 alongside our wider calibration and repair services and power quality monitoring survey services for sites that prefer outsourced PQ campaigns or hybrid in-house plus survey work.

FAQs

What is the difference between the UP-2210 and the Unilyzer 900?

The Unilyzer 900 is a portable Class A power quality analyser, ideal for PQ campaigns and troubleshooting visits. The UP-2210 is a permanently-installed PQ meter designed for fleet deployment and central management through PQ Secure. Many utilities use both: portable instruments for investigations and UP-2210 fleets for continuous monitoring.

Does the UP-2210 require the PQ Secure central system?

The UP-2210 records and stores data locally even without a central server. To get the full benefit of fleet management, central reporting, and automated compliance, the PQ Secure system is the recommended pairing. The UP-2210 unit works standalone, but is designed to integrate with PQ Secure.

Does the UP-2210 need calibration?

Yes. As a power quality measurement unit used for compliance and acceptance reporting, the UP-2210 should be recalibrated periodically. Powerpoint Engineering's calibration laboratory recalibrates Unipower power quality meters and supplies a traceable certificate.
