Voltage: 230 volts
Amperage: up to 100 amps
Type: Pass-Through, Single-Phase, 50Hz
Data: Smart Meter v.2 RS-485 Communications
Model: EKM-23IDS-N v.2
Our EKM-23IDS-N is our 50Hz 230 volts meter for metering systems in most of the world. This is a revenue grade kWh smart submeter. It is great for metering any 230 volt load to a high accuracy required for billing purposes or just for tracking usage. This meter uses the very powerful industrial grade RS-485 communications. It is also very reliable and easy to install. This is the 230 volt version of our EKM-25IDS-N which is a 120/240 volt 3-wire meter (for USA power).
RS-485 communications allows you to instantaneously get a lot more data out of the meter. It will be more reliable and accurate than other forms of meter data, such as pulse output. You can connect up to 256 of these meters daisy chained together on up to 4000 feet of wire. This string of meters can then be connected to one of our converters for reading the meters with a computer, over the internet or LAN, USB, or Serial Ports.
State-of-the-art, fully solid-state kWh meter with RS-485 and Pulse Output, 800 pulses per kWh pulse output
Accurate to within 1%, LCD readout in hundredths of a kWh, to 99999.99 kWh. No conversion factor or multiplier needed.
Compact, very easy to install design. Simple DIN-rail mounting. Wires pass through 3/8+" diameter tubes in the meter body--Will accept some (but not all) #2AWG insulated wire. The only electrical connection is made by 2 small screws which penetrate the wire insulation and pick up power for the meter and give the meter it's voltage reference. This meter draws less than 1 watt.
Non-resettable LCD display. Usage data is stored even if the meter loses power for 10 years. Tamper-proof and meter sealable.
Single-phase energy meter, 50A 120-volt 2-wire 60Hz
Most commonly a white neutral and a black or red hot wire, 230V between them. Very voltage tolerant--the meters will tolerate voltages from 160V to 300V !!
Perfect for for submetering electrical usage in the rest of the world. Meter your solar installation, power generation facility, granny unit, or any other device that uses 50Hz 230 volts.
These meters are designed for the electrical systems of most of the world. This meter will return kWh, Reverse kWh, Voltage, Current (Amps), Power (kW), Power Factor (Cos ϴ), Maximum Demand. Also, 6 months of monthly reads with Time-of-Use stored on board the meter and readable remotely.
