Description

 

The WattsOn universal power transducer utilizes cutting edge technology to implement a multi-functional power and energy transducer into a small, cost-effective package. WattsOn incorporates three meters into one to provide a unique solution for monitoring up to three single-phase loads, or one three-phase load. By using two of the inputs, it may be used with split-phase loads also.

WattsOn provides comprehensive per phase (as well as cumulative) information, including Volts, Amps, Real Power, Reactive Power, Apparent Power, Watt-hours, VAR-hours, VA-hours, Power Factor and Frequency.

Power (Real and Reactive) is a signed measurement and the meter accumulates both import and export energies as well as capacitive and reactive energy.

The unit accepts up to 600V (line-to-line) directly without the need for potential transformers. It accepts common 5A CTs as standard and optionally mV output CTs (333mV or 1000mV full scale output), as well as Elkor’s line of "safe" mA split and solid core CTs.

The WattsOn transducer features a high accuracy chipset and provides register updates up to two times per second. The true-RMS inputs may be used even with distorted waveforms such as those generated by variable frequency drives and SCR loads.

Information is available via the RS-485 (Modbus RTU) output port. In addition, two solid-state relay pulse outputs are available for Wh energy pulses as well as Qh pulses or direction of power flow indication. Optionally, the second pulse output may be substituted for two 0-10VDC outputs that may represent any instantaneous parameter that the meter measures. The analogue outputs and their scaling may be field selected and adjusted via the RS-485 output port.

 

WattsOn Console Software

The WattsOn power transducer can be fully configured using then free WattsOn Console software. Features include;

  • Displays all measured values

  • Datalogging - stores user chosen parameters to a .CSV (Cmma Separated Variable) file for import into Spreadsheet programs such as Excel
  • Log rate is adjustable in seconds
  • Program Current Transformer input ranges
  • Can communicate via RS485 or with the aid of an Ethernet to RS485 Converter via Modbus TCP

333mV Current Transformers

Split-core current transformers “sense” AC current from 1 to 200 Amps passing through the center conductor. Split-core transformers are ideal for installation on existing electrical wiring by snapping around the conductor. The Magnelab SCT series have of the highest industry standards both for interleaving joints and the self-locking mechanism.

 

  • Rated input from 1 Amp to 200 Amp

  • 0.333 Volt AC output at rated current
  • Accuracy ± 1%

Operator Interface Panels

The CuPanel is an HMI (Human-Machine Interface) touch panel development kit. It includes an HMI touch controller and a WYSIWYG development tool (the CUPANEL Editor) for "programming" the touch controller. Using the powerful CUPANEL Editor users can create professional human-machine interfaces by "drawing" controls on a canvas representing the touch controller's screen.

There are 3 models in the range;
