PRESS RELEASE: New PowerScout™
Power Meter Launched...
DENT's
PowerScout™ Series networked powermeters are submetering
devices
designed to provide timely and accurate consumption data necessary to gain the
upper hand on electrical costs in today's escalating energy market. These
meters can capture kWh/kW energy and demand data as well as virtually all
relevant energy parameters for diagnostics and monitoring on three-phase or
single-phase circuit installations. The PowerScout's™ flexibility,
size, and ease-of-use make them ideal tools for gathering detailed consumption
information in commercial, industrial, government and retail environments.
Installing the PowerScout™ is simple thanks to color-coded voltage
leads and clearly labeled CTs. DENT's patented PhaseChek™ circuitry
includes a three LED indicator display that confirms proper CT-to-phase
installation. The PowerScout™ automatically adjusts for CT
orientation, greatly reducing set-up time and all but eliminating installation
errors.
 The PowerScout™ uses
direct connections to each phase of the voltage and various pre-wired CT
options such as split-core current transformers or flexible Rogowski coils (for
large loads or large cables and busbars) to monitor current on each
phase.
Communications interface to the
PowerScout™ is through an RS-485 serial connection using the
industry-standard Modbus protocol. Up to 254 PowerScout™ meters may
be connected to a single RTU or datalogger for monitoring and recording power
usage at multiple locations within a single site.
The PowerScout™
18 is available with or without an enclosure, as pictured
below.
