SATEC, a supplier of monitoring instrumentation and software serving commercial/industrial and electric utility applications, introduced the PRO Series of revenue-grade energy meters. This advanced line of DIN-rail and panel-mounted meters is presented as the first in its class to accept either AC or DC voltage and current inputs. Applications include facility-wide energy management, solar panel and battery storage metering, tenant sub-metering and electric substation, and distributed energy resource metering.
The PRO Series power meters’ modular design bundles, into a single device, multiple important functions, useful features and benefits:
· AC (Three-phase + Neutral) and DC Inputs – only product in this class offering both AC (10-1000V) and DC (10-3000V) in the same meter
· Revenue-Grade Accuracy – ANSI C12.20 Class 0.2, IEC 62053-22, IEC 61557-12 class 0.2
· Intuitive Color Display – icons facilitate easy set-up and display
· Dual Ethernet Ports – two independent IP addressable ports
· Comms Protocols – Modus, DNP3/DNP3.0/TCP (level 2), IEC61850 and IEC60870
· Expandable Modular I/O – analog and digital I/O for up to 26 additional channels
· PLC Functionality – provides up to 64 programmable setpoints
· 16GB On-Board Memory – for extensive energy profiling and power quality event recording
· Seamless Integration – with SATEC ExpertPower, DNP and other 3rd party platforms
· Power Quality – recording of harmonics, crest factor, k-factor and event capture of sags/swells
· Economical – exceptional functionality
“With the continuing addition of solar, other renewable resources, and battery storage in the utility distribution system and in commercial/industrial facility power networks, there is a growing need for DC metering,” said Eric Lambert, SATEC’s Tech Services Director. “The ability of the new PRO Series to accommodate both traditional AC metering – as well as DC – offers a cost-effective and highly adaptable solution.”
