Power Quality Meter


The Socomec DIRIS A-100/A-200 are UL and CSA 600VAC compliant panel-mounted power quality meters that can communicate either via MODBUS RTU over RS485, MODBUS TCP and BACnet IP over Ethernet. The 4 independent current inputs of the device allow to manage several types and number of circuits. The DIRIS A-100/A-200 are compatible with all types of current sensor technologies: solid-core, split-core, and Rogowski coil sensors to match any project requirements and installation constraints.


Advantages

Universal

The DIRIS A-100/A-200 is an all-in-one power quality meter providing a cost-effective answer to all application requirements:

  • Native RS485 and dual Ethernet communication and digital inputs/outputs, eliminating the need for additional optional modules.

  • Universal power supply 115 - 600 VAC.

  • Wide range voltage service monitoring 90-690 VAC direct without using potential transformers.

  • Compatible with any third party 333mv Current Transformers.



Plug & Play

  • Unique RJ12 technology provides a quick and reliable connection of current sensors to the power meter.

  • Using mV output CTs means that no shorting blocks are needed.

  • Fast and simple setup thanks to the screen's Configuration Wizard.

  • Easy Config System is a free configuration software that allows the user to create and save configuration templates which can later be uploaded to other A-100/A-200.

  • Smart monitoring of protective devices with VirtualMonitor technology, without the need for auxiliary contacts or extra wiring.



Fully Customizable

  • The user can upload their brand logo to customize the screen and embedded webserver.

  • Creation of rolling favorite screens to display the measurement datasets that matter most.



Advanced Features

  • Waveform capture automatically triggered by power quality events to rapidly identify disturbances.

  • Time of Use calendar configuration (up to 4 seasons and 4 tariffs) to align consumptions with any local utility contract.

  • Ground leakage current monitoring, with alarm thresholds for preventative maintenance and quick remedial action.


Better than Revenue Grade

PreciSense technology provides industry leading accuracy which exceed revenue grade standards, for reliable and repeatable measurements under all conditions:

  • Class 0.2 for the meter alone according to ANSI C12.20 and IEC 61557-12 standard.

  • Class 0.5 from 2% to 120% of the CT rating for the global measurement chain (with TE/iTR/TF/ACTL-1250 current sensors).


General Characteristics

  • UL 600V.

  • Time of Use.

  • Power Quality.

  • Waveform captures.

  • 4 current sensor inputs.

  • Ground leakage current monitoring (A-200).

  • Cybersecurity compliance.

  • Free embedded webserver - WEBVIEW-S.

Functions

Monitoring 

  • Real-time visualization of all electrical parameters, available under several formats (bar graphs, tables)

  • Phasor diagram to identify potential CT wiring errors


Consumption Curves

  • Recording of active (kWh), reactive (kvarh) and apparent (kVAh) energies

  • Graphical view of monthly, weekly, daily, or hourly energy consumptions to detect drifts


Time of Use

  • Custom calendar management

  • Energy consumption displayed according to the utility's daily rates, weekdays, seasons, and holiday schedules

Measurement History

  • History of all electrical parameters (V, I, P, Q, S, THD etc.)

  • Time period selection (year, month, day etc.)

  • Easy correlation, by displaying multiple parameters on the same graph


Alarms & Events

  • View active alarms and power quality events

  • Access to details (duration, amplitude etc.)

  • Log of finished alarms & events


Waveform

  • Automatic waveform captures following power quality events

  • Waveform picture and samples can be downloaded from the webserver
