Solar PV and Grid Energy Monitoring

Energy Monitoring Features

SYSTEM FEATURES:

• Real-time monitoring of PV system from within or outside building premises
• User-friendly analytical software for viewing data
• Printable screen plots and data reports
• System graphically alerts problems with energy production or hardware operation
• Easy to install hardware with Plug and Play connections from sensors to Data Logger
• Operates from battery bank automatically with 12, 24, or 48 VDC systems
• Monitors the status of battery charge capacity
• System operation requires no special training
• Interactive tutorial demo software teaches user to set up reports and graphs in real-time
• System programmable at Data Logger location or via computer site
• Remote display viewing with a remote monitor
• Visual alerts for notifications of performance anomalies or equipment malfunctions
• Isolated high DC voltage inputs
• Field selectable sensor input options for grid power usage and net metering
• Software and hardware features upgradable
• Software works with up to 2 inverters on residential models and multiple inverters for commercial
• Residential models track the energy use in buildings that do not exceed a maximum current of 200 amps (rms)
• Accurate energy use metering for building loads close to power factor of 1

Accurately track energy data and usage

• Energy production - daily, weekly and monthly
• Building’s AC energy consumption
• State of charge of battery backup system
• Daily reduction of greenhouse gases
• DC and AC current, voltage and power
• DC Amps from multiple solar arrays
• DC Watts from multiple solar arrays
• DC voltage from solar array
• AC power from multiple inverters
• AC Amps from multiple inverters
• KWatts used from electrical grid
• Temperature of array
• Ambient outside temperature
• Irradiance received at solar array
• AC voltage from inverter output
• Measures amperage and voltage to ± 1%; accuracy and power to ± 3%
• Accurate for all loads with a close-to-unity power factor

 

Some data collection may require additional sensors depending on channels used and system installed.

Data Logger Inputs

Available Data Inputs

• 11 channel input capacity to Data Logger*
• Multiple DC current inputs
