Eaton Power Xpert Architecture
Eaton Power Xpert Architecture provides the framework to unify the entire
power system. It connects power systems with communication and
management systems to provide a holistic approach to the entire power
system. This strategic, system-level focus is integral to PowerChain
Management Solutions. It provides increased reliability, cost efficiencies,
enhanced safety and risk mitigation, and allows for the more effective use of
capital. Eaton Power Xpert Architecture is comprised of both software and
hardware components including meters, gateways and connectivity devices.
Power Monitoring in a Networked World
Guaranteeing power availability, managing utility costs and ensuring power
quality are more important than ever as organizations rely on their
expanding technology infrastructure to drive business. Effective monitoring
of the power system is critical to responding to threats, preventing
downtime and optimizing performance, which translates to greater reliability
and cost efficiencies down the road. The Eaton PXG200E provides web-
enabled, real-time monitoring of Eaton Electrical and other vendors’
equipment through standard, on-board web pages, Power Xpert Software or
third party software. As an integral part of the Eaton Power Xpert
Architecture, which provides end-to-end power system management, the
PXG200E provides a central point to connect up to 64 devices to the Ethernet
network. The gateway may be used as a standalone device to view one
system or location, or it can be easily integrated into a large, multi-location
system.
