What can the Inline Power Meter monitor?
The Inline Power Meter can monitor and record the following from the sens
base units.
Current
= AC
RMS
Current to the load.
Voltage
= AC
RMS
Voltage
of the load.
Active Power
=
pP
ower in kW (kilowatt),
it
is the real power transmitted to loads such
as motors, lamps, heaters, and computers.Power merely absorbed and returned in load
due to its reactive properties is referred to as reactive power. ... Total power in the AC
circuit
[[needed to rephrase this, confusing.]]
Power Factor
= In AC circuits, the power factor
is the ratio of the active power
consumed by a component or circuit to the apparent poweris the ratio of the real power
that is used to do work and the apparent power that is supplied to the circuit
.
It is an
indicator of the quality of design and management of an electrical installation.
[[needed to rephrase this, confusing.]]
Leakage Current
= Leakage current is the current that flows from the AC circuit in the
equipment to the chassis, or to the ground
,
and can be either from the input or the
output.
If the equipment is not properly groundedMost power
supplysupplies
in
equipment
s
have a small
amount of
leakage current
.
(Optional) Relay
= Allows the ability to shut off or turn on the power to the load.
Maximum Current & Power
Below shows the maximum current & power (temporary overload condition) for each
model.
1a) maximum measurement range of current for 16A model = 16A, current reading
value will saturate at 16A, device is rated for 20A max (derated 16A for UL),
1b) maximum measurement range of power for 16A model = 3.84 kW (16A x 240V, with
PF=1)
2a) maximum measurement range of current for 32A model = 32A, current reading
value will saturate at 32A, device is rated for 32A max (derated 24A for UL)
2b) maximum measurement range of power for 32A model = 7.68 kW (32A x 240V, with
PF=1)
