It's high tide in the world of Energy Management Solutions. With everything changing in the way we view our energy needs, and the focus on renewable energy, we are surfing our way in to the market place with our cutting edge products.

Take the Panasonic KW series for example, The KW series is the solution for maintenance and control in applications involving energy saving and environmental protection. It supports 4 types of dedicated CT sensors to cover a wide measurement range. Its basic functions have been expanded for easier operation: Instantaneous electric power display, voltage and current display, built-in hour meter functions, and more.

Why bother with traditional AC Digital Panel meters or DC Digital Panel meters when you can have it all.

Carlo Gavazzi is also catching the wave! The Carlo Gavazzi EM26 Energy Analyzer Performs extended consumption analysis while also keeping electrical parameters under control.

The EM26 is a three-phase energy analyzer with built-in configuration joystick and LCD data displaying; particularly indicated for active and reactive energy metering and for cost allocation.

The meter can be provided with digital outputs that can be used for pulse proportional to the active and reactive energy being measured or for alarm outputs, or for remote control.

The nature of our voltage mains has changed greatly in the last 10 years. With the proliferation of non-linear loads such as inverters, power converters, switch-mode power supplies, and computers, there is a growing concern for the quality of our power sources.

Problems often arise which can cause equipment failure or shutdown resulting in significant costs and loss of production. Power quality problems can result in failure of compensation capacitors, tripping of fuses, over-heating of transformers and motors, failures of electronic equipment, and high neutral currents.

Energy costs are becoming a significant expense in most processes. With increased energy unit costs, decreased generating capacity, and the environmental concerns with the burning of fossil fuels, it is important that companies reduce their electrical consumption.

At Marshall Wolf Automation, with our Extended Vendor Network offer a broad range of power quality meters and transducers which give early warning of power quality problems - allowing preventative action to be taken before a major failure results. Most of our products offer relay outputs that can be used to immediately shut down a piece of equipment if a certain threshold is reached. Another option is to connect to your PLC or PC control system to provide plant wide monitoring of power quality using 4-20 mA current signals or via RS485 or Ethernet communications.

Marshall Wolf Automation also offer a number of software products for monitoring of a network of meters and transducers. This allows at-a-glance viewing of your complete power system.
