Precise consumption data and cost savings

New active energy meters from IPF

With the CS72-series, IPF provides modular, three-phase active energy meters of accuracy class B for direct connection of up to 100A (CS720001 - 320-480V AC) or up to 80A (CS720002 - 400V AC). The CS720001 integrates an RS485 interface with Modbus RTU protocol. The CS720002 has an Ethernet interface instead.

Both counters have a backlit LCD display that shows the active energy (i.e. the actual electrical energy used), the reactive energy and other measured values. As the measuring instruments are MID-certified, they are also suitable for consumption billing.

The new devices are an ideal addition to IPF's energy monitoring portfolio, which includes the IIoT gateway BY000002 and free software provide the crucial basis for the simple recording, visualization and evaluation of consumption data in order to leverage a wide range of potential cost savings. And without high initial investment, costly conversions or follow-up costs.

In this context, the active energy meters offer an option for direct connection to a gateway instead of using current transformers and energy measurement modules from IPF for energy monitoring. The compact active energy meters (width 4HP) are integrated into the feed line of the relevant loads (terminal connection) and connected to the gateway via RS458 (Modbus RTU) or Ethernet. The gateway then continuously records the measurement data from the active energy meters. The data can then be visualized on any PC using the browser-based software. The individually configurable web client dashboard provides a wide range of display options for data analysis, evaluation and further processing.
