To further help users, the anti-glare and scratch resistant display features large digits to ensure accurate readings.
The PM700 series comprises three versions, each of which has an integrated display and provides metering measurements, such as power factor, frequency, kWh and kVArh, including total harmonic distortion (THD) and min/max values.
The basic model has no communication capability and gives demand, THD and min/max values.
The pulse version features two pulse outputs and the Modbus version can communicate with other devices at 9600/19200 Baud via a 2-wire RS 485.
The PM700 can be used in many applications, including panel instrumentation, sub-metering and cost allocation.
Remote monitoring of electrical installations can easily be achieved by integrating the PM700 with other PowerLogic devices using RS 485 Modbus communications.
