System Integration
The PowerScout 3 Plus (PS3P-I) is a device that needs some form of system integration to work out of the box. The PSP3 can be directly connected via MODBUS to a data logger such as the DataTaker DT80 or DT82I, you could connect the PSP3 to a SCADA or BMS network via MODBUS or BACnet and possibly to a computer running a third party software program.
Contact Lontek for more information about the PSP3 and typical applications.
The Dent PS-COMPAK-USB software & communications package is generally required for setting up the PSP3.
Required Current Transformers
You will need to select the size of some current transformers (CT) best suited for your typical monitoring application. Several main factors need to be considered when selecting the best suit CT.
- Maximum and minimum load current in Amps.
- The physical size of the cable the CT needs to fit around. Some cabling installations may have multiple grouped cables for load or voltage drop reasons.
- The physical space in the switchboard or electrical cabinet.
CT-HSC-020U - 20 Amp Mini current transformer.
CT-HSC-050U - 50 Amp Mini current transformer.
CT-HMC-0100-U - 100 Amp Midi current transformer.
CT-HMC-0200-U - 200 Amp Midi current transformer.
CT-CON-0150EZ-U - 150 Amp Clamp current transformer.
