Temecula, CA – March 3, 2009 – Opto 22, developer and manufacturer of the award-winning SNAP PAC System™ family of programmable automation controllers, I/O, and accessories, has released the SNAP-AIPM-3 analog input module for measuring and managing three-phase AC power usage.
The SNAP-AIPM-3 mounts on a SNAP I/O rack and measures volts AC RMS and amps AC RMS. The module calculates true power, volt-amps, and power sums for all three phases of power and, when used with a SNAP PAC R-series controller or SNAP I/O brain, can play a key role in controlling and regulating equipment and facility power consumption.
Opto 22的旗舰SNAP I/O™系统家族的一部分，Snap-AIPM-3模拟输入模块监视最多14个与发电和消耗有关的数据参数。该模块同时测量了这三个阶段的每个阶段的电压和电流，并计算每个阶段的真实功率和电压。该模块还计算所有三个阶段的真实功率总和。计算在模块中执行，并发送到SNAP PAC脑或控制器。从这些数字中，可以轻松确定其他变量，例如功率因数，从而提供跟踪整体功率使用和能源消耗所需的数据，维持功率质量并可能降低能源成本。
奥普图22 end-user customers, including PepsiAmericas, State University of New York, and Verizon Communications, as well as systems integrators like Advanced Energy Control, have all utilized the Opto 22’s longstanding SNAP-AIPM single-phase power monitoring module in their various energy management applications. Now, with the release of the new SNAP-AIPM-3, these and other customers now have an option for monitoring all three phases of power through a single module.
“We’re often called upon to help large enterprises maximize their energy usage within the confines of the rate structures set forth by their power companies,” explains Josh Vander Galien, Vice President of Advanced Energy Control. “The SNAP-AIPM-3 will give us the ability to develop control systems and solutions for commercial and industrial customers looking to avoid paying peak pricing (or penalties) by monitoring, controlling, and maintaining their 3-phase power consumption within the guidelines and thresholds established by their power company.”
对于六个有线输入通道，SNAP-AIPM-3的建议输入范围为85-250 VAC RMS或0-10 AC AC AMPS RMS。该模块提供了10毫伏的分辨率，用于电压输入的精度为+/- 0.2伏，并且对于当前输入的精度为+/- 8毫安的400个微型分辨率。值得注意的是，SNAP-AIPM-3还可以使用合适比率的标准5AMP电流变压器监测大于10安培的AC线电流。
The SNAP-AIPM-3 is guaranteed for life, transformer isolated and, like all Opto 22 SNAP modules, is optically isolated from the equipment and devices it connects to, as well as from other modules that may reside on a shared I/O rack.
The SNAP-AIPM-3 comes factory calibrated and is available now, at a list price of $495 USD.
