2.0    Description and Documentation 

Energy  Monitoring  Modules  PWRM10-01  and  PWRM20-01  are  IoT,  universal,  high  accuracy, 
compact,  self-powered,  electrical  energy  measurement  devices  that  interface  to  three-phase  and 
single-phase  systems.  The  modules  are  specifically  designed  for  heavy-duty  industrial  and 
commercial installations and retrofit applications, providing a wide range of highly accurate power 
and energy measurements over an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. 
 
The DIN rail mounted enclosures have pluggable terminal blocks for connecting to phase voltages 
and phase currents which simplifies setup and maintenance. Both modules have a small form factor 
which occupies less space in control cabinets than other measurement solutions. The PWRM10-01 
module interfaces to phase voltages of 85 

 265VAC, 50/60Hz and is self-powered from any of the 

three phases. For higher voltage systems, the PWRM20-01 module interfaces to phase voltages of 
85 

 525VAC, 50/60Hz and is self-powered from any of the three phases. Both modules can interface 

to higher phase voltages with the use of voltage transformers and scaling configured in the module. 
Power consumption is low and does not affect measured power and energy. 
 
Phase  current  inputs  have  an  industry  standard  range  of  0.333VAC  full  scale.  The  modules  are 
configurable  to  use  an  external  shunt,  current  transformer,  or  Rogowski  Coil  to  measure  phase 
currents directly or non-contact.

 

 
The PWRM10-01 and PWRM20-01 modules measure and report a wide range of electrical energy 
parameters which include, but are not limited to:  
 

  RMS Voltages and Currents 

  Phase Angles 

  Line Periods 

  Instantaneous Total Active Power 

  Instantaneous Total Apparent Power 

  Fundamental Active Power 

  Power Factors 

  Total Active Energy 

  Fundamental Active Energy 

  Fundamental Reactive Energy 

  Reactive Energy 

  Harmonics 

  Power Quality 

 Configurable Events Monitor and Post Notifications for: 

  Over-Voltage 

  Over-Current 

  Sag 

 

Real-time data from the module is accessed via an Ethernet port using the HTTP API or a standard 
web browser on a host computer, smart phone, or tablet. Data logging is user configurable and once 
parameters and ranges are selected, the data is automatically downloaded and stored.  
 
With the ease of use and many features of the PWRM10-01 and PWRM20-01 modules, measuring 
power quality, monitoring energy consumption, determining machine health, and other powerful data 
analyses become simple operations. 
 
PWRM module literature and software is available for download from the
