Rohde & Schwarz NPA701 Compliance Tester

Overview

The Rohde & Schwarz NPA701 is the top-tier model in the NPA series, combining comprehensive power analysis with automated compliance testing. Designed for compliance verification and standards conformance, it includes built-in wizards for IEC 62301 (standby power), EN 50564 (extended standby), and EN 61000-3-2 (harmonic current for EMC and CE approval). The instrument enables autonomous measurements without requiring a PC.
