Energy Meter,Single CT 100 Amp,Output:Pulse,Phase Loss

H8163 Series Enhanced Data Stream energy meters offer 26 points of information about power system performance, pulse output of kWh data and a phase-loss alarm.

The H8163 Energy Meters are easy to install, making them ideal for all submetering applications. To acheive system accuracy of 1%, from 2% to 100% of rated load, each meter is factory matched with quick-to-install split-core CTs and calibrated as a system.

The high-resolution backlit LCD display allows clear readings under any lighting conditions to reduce the risk of misinterpretation. The backlighting can be disabled if desired.

Optional communications information allow the meter to be connected to control system networks to report crucial power information at a much reduced installed cost.

APPLICATIONS

Commercial tenant submetering

Performance contracting

Cost allocation

Real-time power monitoring via local display or
through control/data acquisition systems

The ultimate stand-alone energy metering system

High resolution backlit LCD display provides clear
readings at a distance and under any lighting
conditions...reduces the risk of misinterpreting
the data. Back lighting can be disabled if desired
Easy integration to control or data acquisition
systems

H8163 provides a pulse output from 1/10 to
1 pulse per kWh provides easy connection to
existing control systems

H8163 provides a phase loss alarm...protects
equipment

With the optional Communications Board
(H8163-CB) Energy Meters (H8150 & H8163) can
easily be added to a Modbus® control systems
network to report multiple variables including
kW, kWh, kVAR, PF, Amps and Volts, providing
crucial power information at a much reduced
installation cost

Simple, fast installation

Split-core CTs eliminate the need to remove
electrical conductors, greatly reducing
installation time

Energy Meters automatically detect and correct
phase reversal, eliminating the need to be
concerned with CT load orientation

CTs and voltage leads are color coded making it
easy to determine correct connection
