Overview
The Industrial Wireless Three Phase Current Meter measures the RMS current of an alternating current (AC) system using 3 current transformers (CTs) that wrap around the wires of a three phase power system. The sensor reports Minimum RMS current, maximum RMS current, average RMS current, and duty cycle for each phase and the combined amp hours of all three phases to the UpKeep Edge. The UpKeep Edge is capable of generating watt hour or kilowatt hour readings as well based on a user specified RMS voltage.
How They Work
- A split-core current transformer clamps around the conductor to measure AC current non-invasively.
- Readings are transmitted wirelessly via the protocol to the UpKeep Edge gateway 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
- Industrial motor monitoring
- Phase balance verification
- Power quality tracking
- Heavy equipment analysis
