Communication options

Example PLC communication with Profibus or Modbus

Example Ethernet gateway

excess value by additional functions

By integration of new functions, the UMG 104 exceeds all limits of digital panel meters:

  • kWh-meter, kvarh-meter
  • Multifunctional power meter
  • Harmonic Analyzer
  • Supervision of condition
  • Event writer
  • Data logger

The UMG 104 can accept up to 4 current and 4 voltage inputs, which allows monitoring of up to 4 single phase circuits. Potential applications include data centers, office buildings, motor control centers, etc.

Cost-effective, fast and safe communication Modbus and Profibus

In many cases the costs for installation and communication (e.g. peripheral equipment for field buses) exceed those for the respective power meters.

Integration of the UMG 104 in an existing field bus architecture means a fast, cost-efficient and reliable communication. Additional interfaces enable the integration of the power analysers into PLC or building automation systems. The use of open standards offers great flexibility to the user.

Easy integration of devices with Ethernet interface

With the Modbus interface function of UMG 104 you can connect via Modbus gateways (for example UMG 508, UMG 604, ...) to Ethernet. Each instrument with a Modbus RTU interface can be connected, if its data format and function codes correspond. Data can be scaled and labelled.

Highspeed Modbus

The devices of UMG 104 series can transfer data via RS485 interface with a speed of up to 921.6 kB/s among each other device of this series.
