PowerLogic® PM800 series

Compact power, energy and power quality meters

The Square D® PowerLogic® PM800 series power meters combine accurate, 3-phase energy and power measurement with data logging, power quality analysis, alarm and I/O capabilities not typically available in a compact meter. The meters are ideally suited to local and remote monitoring of low or high voltage electrical installations in industrial facilities, commercial buildings, utility networks or critical power environments. Facility and operations personnel will benefit in reducing energy-related costs while avoiding power quality conditions that can reduce equipment life and productivity.

PowerLogic® PM800 series power meters are easy to install and use, offering integrated or remote high-visibility displays. A choice of three models and a range of expansion modules help match features to the application and support field-upgrading of meters as required. Serial and Ethernet communication options enable the meters to be used within a PowerLogic power and energy management system or with third-party automation systems.

Typical applications

Power quality compliance monitoring

Validate that power delivered or received complies with the EN50160 international power quality standard.

Disturbance and harmonic analysis

Detect, troubleshoot and resolve power anomalies that can affect sensitive manufacturing, production, data or laboratory processes and equipment.

Energy metering, cost allocation and sub-billing

Upload metered energy values to software to support utility bill verification, contract optimization and cost allocation or billing by department, area or process.

Demand and power factor control

Trend and forecast energy and demand to help analyze usage patterns, compare load characteristics and manage energy costs. Manage demand or power factor using setpoint-triggered relays to control loads or capacitor banks.

Load studies and circuit optimization

Optimize load curtailment and load preservation programs to drive down energy costs and improve system reliability. Reveal unused electrical system capacity.

Equipment monitoring and control

Monitor the status or condition of breakers, generators or other equipment. Automatically or manually control equipment using on-board relays.

Preventive maintenance

Track and alarm on equipment conditions that could indicate excessive wear, imminent malfunction or poor energy inefficiency. Verify that power distribution and mitigation equipment is operating reliably and within specified tolerances.

Integrated utility metering

Read energy pulses from other water, air, gas, electric, or steam (WAGES) meters. Automatically aggregate and convert pulses to energy units for upload to energy management software.

Features

Cost-effective, modular design Standard features include a range of 3-phase power and energy measurements, total harmonic distortion (THD) metering, one RS-485 Modbus communication port, one digital input, one KY-type digital output, and alarming on critical conditions. A choice of four models offers incremental levels of custom logging and power quality analysis capabilities, while expansion modules offer additional logging, I/O and Transparent Ready® Ethernet port. Downloadable firmware helps keeps meter capabilities updated.Financial management including accounting and billing
