SFM236 Series Single Phase Multifunction DIN-Rail Meter from China Suppliers - High Precision Factory Monitoring Solutions
Product Description
Core Measurement Capabilities
Calibrated for exceptional accuracy, the SFM236 series meter captures a complete set of critical single-phase power parameters to support comprehensive load analysis and energy auditing:
- Voltage: RMS line voltage (compatible with standard system voltages such as 100 V, 120 V, 220 V, 230 V, 240 V)
- Current: RMS load current (configurable for direct measurement or CT-connected applications with 1 A/5 A secondary ratings)
- Power: Active power (real power consumed/supplied), reactive power (power stored in inductive/capacitive loads), and apparent power
- Frequency: Grid frequency fluctuations (typically 50 Hz/60 Hz, with precise tracking of variations)
- Energy: Cumulative import energy (power drawn from the grid) and export energy (power fed back to the grid, suitable for distributed generation systems like rooftop solar)
Operational Versatility & System Integration
Designed to meet diverse on-site monitoring needs, the SFM236 series meter supports two flexible operational modes:
🖥️ Mode 1 — Local Display Mode
The meter is equipped with an on-board digital display that presents real-time readings of all measured parameters. This allows field technicians and facility managers to perform quick spot checks, verify system performance, and troubleshoot issues without relying on external equipment.
🔗 Mode 2 — Centralized Measurement & Control Integration
Beyond local monitoring, the meter's detection data can be seamlessly transmitted to industrial control devices (including PLCs, RTUs, and energy management controllers) and host computers via industry-standard communication protocols. This integration enables the construction of a unified, centralized measurement and control system, supporting remote data logging, energy consumption trend analysis, load profiling, and automated power management.
📌
With its space-saving DIN-rail mounting design, broad parameter measurement range, and flexible integration capabilities, the SFM236 series meter is perfectly suited for real-time power monitoring applications in single-phase two-wire systems, delivering actionable data to optimize energy usage and enhance system reliability.
