Overview -
The A8814 (Acqu) is the first device of its kind to incorporate the ease of use and functionality of the
Obvius Data Acquisition (DAS) platform with a line powered three phase meter. Once connected, the device
begins logging data and monitoring loads with minimal configuration. The device can read inputs from a variety
of CT’s and has the option to be configured as a system, maximizing total system accuracy. By utilizing industry
standard Modbus inputs, the A8814 has the capability to monitor over 60 different loads on a single Modbus
drop. The flexible and expandable functionality of the device allows for a number of diverse applications
including:
Utility Submetering
Measurement & Verification (M&V)
Reducing energy costs
Track energy use and peak demand for Demand Response programs
Benchmarking building energy usage
Real time performance data
Alarm notifications for data points above or below target levels (including SNMP traps)
Creating load profiles for energy purchases
Monitoring performance of critical systems
