You want to use energy as economically as possible. OurPowerMonitorproductshelpbymeasuring,displaying, analysing and controlling your energy consumption, considerably lowering your energy costs and enhancing grid quality.

Giving you control over your energy consumption Our Power Monitors offer all the energy parameters at a glance

Risingenergycostsandfluctuatinggridquality,whichcanresultinproductionfailurerisks,arefactorsthatinfluenceyour competitiveness. To control this, it is best to run a power management system that allows you to record, analyse and display your grid data, as well as actively optimise your energy consumption.

OurproductsfromthePowerMonitorseriescombinehigh measurement accuracy with fantastic resolution and numerous programmable analysis functions. This makes it easier to analyse the grid quality, optimally protect sensitive machine parts and extend their service life. Detecting expensive reactive power by analysing the conductors and the neutral conductor actively helps to save considerable amounts of energy.

Simple energy controllingOntheonehand,digitalinputsandoutputsenableyoutolink several devices and, on the other hand, to signal that limit values have been exceeded or error statuses have occurred. Clear display and simple operationThefour-lineLCdisplaywithbackgroundilluminationmakesall of the measured values visible at a glance. The large soft keys allow you to navigate reliably in the menu.

From current sensors in the energy sector, through torque, position or acceleration sensors in marine engineering, to temperature sensors in the food and beverages industry: reliable signal conversion and isolation is of prime importance in many areas of automation technology.

OurACT20Mfamilystandsforthehighlyaccuratemeasurement of voltage and current signals, as well as their conversion into standard signals in a multitude of applications. Indeed, our new bipolar signal converters and the temperature converters are characterised, in particular, by their extremely fast signal conversion. The high precision of the temperature converters makes them the ideal solution for precise measurements.
