Production Facilities: Cost Allocation
Light and Medium Industry: Load Control
Since the cost pressure on
production is becoming higher
and higher, the energy
consumption measured by
type of production allows to
allocate and control the costs
in a proper and more accurate
way.
Our Building Automation
system based on Dupline bus
and relevant modules in
combination with our energy
metering system allows to
manage the lighting system as
well as other loads so to
achieve further energy cost
savings.
In the past just simple
measuring systems like current-
voltage-power and power
factor were available to keep
the mains under control. More
complex solutions were
available as well but in many
cases requesting higher
investments. Nowadays more
and more sophisticated
machines and loads like
computers, switching-mode
power supplies and drives are
used in the production facilities
thus increasing significantly
the complexity of loads and of
problems. Carlo Gavazzi is
capable to provide different
levels of solution:
• WM12, a powerful
and compact unit
replacing the ordinary
set of three ammeters,
one voltmeter and one
rotary-switch.
• A more advanced
system which includes in addition to the power analysers
also a powerful supervision software with the aim to build-up
an installation and load history so to prevent with a planned
maintenance scheme load failures and production stops.
