Overview
Wireless AC Current Meters and Industrial Wireless Three-Phase Current Meters continuously measure the alternating current root mean square (AC RMS) using current transformers that clip around the wires in single-phase and three-phase power systems.
How They Work
- The sensor measures AC current data using its integrated sensing element at configurable intervals.
- Readings are transmitted wirelessly to the UpKeep Edge gateway via the 900 MHz protocol, with Encrypt-RF security.
- UpKeep Edge processes incoming data in real time, comparing readings against user-defined alert thresholds.
- When thresholds are breached, instant notifications are sent via text, email, or phone call to designated team members.
- All data is logged for historical trending, compliance reporting, and predictive maintenance analysis.
Applications
- Equipment power monitoring
- Energy usage tracking
- Motor load analysis
- Circuit capacity planning

Questions about this sensor
- What does the Industrial - AC Current Meter, 150 AMP, Detachable Lead measure?
- Wireless AC Current Meters and Industrial Wireless Three-Phase Current Meters continuously measure the alternating current root mean square (AC RMS) using current transformers that clip around the wires in single-phase and three-phase power systems.
- Where is the Industrial - AC Current Meter, 150 AMP, Detachable Lead typically installed?
- Common placements include equipment power monitoring, energy usage tracking, motor load analysis. It uses a NEMA-rated industrial enclosure, so it holds up to wash-down, outdoor, and high-vibration locations.
- What does it need to work?
- An UpKeep Edge gateway within about 1,200 ft. One gateway supports 50 or more sensors, and readings reach UpKeep over the gateway's cellular, Ethernet, or Modbus connection.
- What happens when a reading is out of range?
- UpKeep opens a work order against the asset and notifies the assigned technician. You set the thresholds for each ac current meter individually.
