Solution Introduction

Digitizing the grid begins with IoT devices that measure and collect data and bring intelligence to the edge of the grid. Our smart electricity meters and retrofit sensors are designed for much more than gathering data for consumption billing – they are the powerful engines behind the intelligent grid.

Smart Things wide range of smart meters collects and transmits meter data to the control center for analysis. With our solution, utilities can obtain meter readings automatically thereby eliminating manual effort, detect tamper issues, remotely disconnect electric power supply and offer time of use pricing schemes. By providing inputs on consumption patterns to load dispatch centers or independent system operators, it helps schedule generation from conventional and renewable sources cost efficiently.

Our electric meters offer all the functionality that you can expect from a smart meter – including your choice of communication technology, Sigfox, LoRA or NBIoT. The accuracy of our meters is unrivalled, ensuring reliable consumption billing and satisfied end-users.

 

Problem to Solve

Smart meters allow the utility company to manage and record electricity and performance of electronic devices in the home. It brings the ability to provide detailed and accurate analytics on electrical usage in real-time or at predetermined intervals, all without a technician.

Devices Features

SDM1-AMR

DIN Rail RS485 Datalogger

The SDM1-AMR Datalogger is a low-cost solution for remotely monitoring Smart Process digital power meters equipped with Modbus RS485 RTU.

This device utilizes the SIGFOX™ network to transfer data wirelessly from meter to the cloud. This data can be presented using our software, or if preferred, it can be provided in a raw format such as a CSV file allowing you to present the data through your own software.

SIGFOX™ is a leading cellular network dedicated to low bandwidth communications for connected devices. Its technology is particularly suited to connecting objects requiring a low-cost data transfer. This technology also eradicates the requirement for a SIM card.

The SDM1-AMR is specifically designed to enable a simple, low cost, remote wireless management solution that does not require specialist technical skills for installation.

The SDM1-AMR can take up to 3 parameter inputs through Modbus RS485 from the following list:

  • Total Active Energy (Σ kWh)
  • Import Active Energy (kWh)
  • Export Active Energy (kWh)
  • Current (A)
  • Voltage (V)
  • Instantaneous Power (kW)
  • Power Factor (PF)
  • Frequency (Hz)

This can be 3 parameters from 1 meter, or 1 parameter per meter from 3 meters.

The SDM1-AMR also has the facility to take 2 pulsed inputs for legacy meters such as water, heat or electricity meters that do not have Modbus RS485 communications.
