Emerson introduces power metre to monitor energy consumption

Mansfield, Ohio: According to a press release from Emerson, the company has announced introducing the first WirelessHART power metre, making electrical demand and consumption measurement available via a secure and reliable network across numerous markets to improve energy efficiency and sustainability.

The company said that the power metre’s small physical footprint and WirelessHART technology makes it simple and quick to install, enabling businesses to monitor voltage, current, power, energy, and other electrical parameters on single- and three-phase electrical systems in real-time with revenue-grade accuracy. Real-time monitoring of electricity consumption and instantaneous demand, the company added, enables more granular energy management and effective equipment monitoring, securely and reliably.

“The introduction of the Wireless Power Meter to processing, industrial, cold chain storage facilities, data centers and more will enhance energy saving capabilities and reliability in existing infrastructure through a secure and robust wireless network,” said Sandeep Nair, President of Emerson’s Therm-O-Disc business. “We are enabling customers to better understand their power usage, power quality and therefore improve their energy efficiency.”
