MT-PFAR256 is a transducer of active, reactive power and power factor suitable for single-phase systems, which converts the signal taken from the system into an analog process signal (0 … 5mA – 0..20mA – 4 … 20mA – 0 … 10V etc.) suitable for acquisition through PLC or data management systems. The MT-PFAR256 transducer is a high sampling device (256 samples per network cycle) indispensable in systems with distorted or partialized waveforms, it’s able to ensure high insulation (4kV) between input and output and and to perform measurements with acquisition times <50 msec (option), high accuracy class (0.5% or 0.2%) and manages signals up to 500V – 10A. It can be supplied with RS485 ModBus RTU serial interface which provides remote monitoring of all measurement and configuration parameters. When supplied with a serial interface, the transducer can be configured using PrTrasd software with which it is possible to set the input range, output range, perform output tests, etc. The three analog outputs allow to simultaneously acquire the active and reactive power and the power factor of the system. The auxiliary power supply allows it to be used both in systems powered by mains voltage and in systems powered at 24Vdc by having an 18…60 Vac/dc extended range power supply on board.
