A new addition to the innovative range of Panasonic Eco power meters used for monitoring and analysis of electrical power is the KW2M series which features measurement of multiple circuits and Ethernet communications in a single unit.
As energy management becomes ever more important within industry, the need for multifunctional and flexible monitoring of electrical power consumption is a standard requirement. With the new KW2M Eco power meters Panasonic offers a new generation of equipment with multi functionality enabling you to monitor energy quality and many other parameters on up to 8 three-phase circuits or 24 single-phase from a single controller. This is realized using the expansion unit feature where up to three expansion units can be added, meaning considerable cost savings when monitoring multiple circuits.
The KW2M Eco power meter has two Ethernet communication ports allowing daisy chaining of multiple units eliminating the need of an Ethernet HUB if more than one unit is required. To compliment this flexibility, the built-in Web Server facility allows easy access to parameters for comprehensive data collection, allowing appropriate energy efficiency measures to be implemented and continually monitored. Therefore, allowing you to take advantage of various European government directives.
In addition, the improved connection technology of the KW2M offers cost savings with reduced wiring when compared with multiple connection of conventional units, and the new push-fit connectors reduce installation time.
