Simply Monitoring Systems...

[Berneray]

We are looking for a simply easy to use and relatively inexpensive remote monitoring system to offer our customers. I know some of the large nationals are charging as much as £1650 for these....but I'm wondering if there is a decent one out there for around the £150 mark....

Any experiences or ideas greatly appreciated..

We use Orsis for remote metering solutions. This costs about £150 plus a yearly fee for system management and monitoring.

We tried loads and they were all incredibly inaccurate.

This one is incredibly flexible and reliable, it's only available as a 'build it yourself' at the moment though. - I've got it wired up monitoring loads of stuff, it's not just power, you can include temperature and other sensors as well - I've got 4 transmitters with 8 CT's and 5 temperature monitors. - Even has a wooden display case There are plans to sell pre-built ones, though they are not yet available. Also because my system includes the option to monitor the voltage and phase angle etc, and each CT can be calibrated, my system is incredibly accurate reporting REAL power, not just 'relative' power.
