Sicotronic
Sicotronic: energy management systems and energy optimization plants for electro-thermal and
general electrical devices in a large-scale catering establishment.
Industrial customers pay electricity rate according to a maximum of Power consumption. Should the
amp draw exceed a set maximum the power supply company will charge a higher permium per KWh.
In order to avoid this current peak a surveyance system like Sicotronic is connected to the Power
meter which will disconnect individual consumers for a certain time according to a preset priority list.
For this purpose these consumers are connected to this system with a signal “energy demand ON”.
The feed back signal will be interrupted if needed.
