Powermonitor 3000

A Compact Power Meter with Enhanced Communications

The Allen-Bradley Powermonitor 3000 is a power quality and sub-metering monitor that is used by energy consumers in critical power and energy management applications. The Powermonitor 3000 meters deploy state-of-the-art dual-port technology, helping customers leverage the high-performance newer networks without the need for cumbersome serial interface bridges.

Features

Many features set the Powermonitor 3000 apart from other power meters such as:

• High-Speed Oscillography — The Powermonitor 3000 provides simultaneous captures of all 7 channels in non-volatile memory with up to 408 cycles per cycle per capture.
• Harmonic Analysis — The Powermonitor 3000 measures percent distortion and magnitude up to the 41st harmonic. It performs harmonic calculations, such as TIF, %THD, K-factor, Crest factor and compliance check to IEEE-519.
• Communications — Every Powermonitor 3000 meter comes with a standard native RS-485 communication port that supports the DF1half-duplex slave protocol and Modbus RTU. It also comes with a variety of additional factory-installed communications options such as EtherNet I/P, DeviceNet,ControlNet, Remote I/O and RS-232. The EtherNet I/P communication card also includes a built-in HTML web page for Internet read access of all critical power and energy data.
• Compact Size — The Powermonitor 3000 meter consists of a master module and an optional display module. The master module mounts easily into existing switchgear or Motor Control Centers (MCCs), eliminating the need for an external enclosure. The display also fits into existing 4-inch ANSI cutouts, which lowers installation costs for both new and retrofitted applications.
