2 PRESENTATION

Sophisticated engineering backed by years of specialist experience in the electronics and electrotechnical sector have enabled ELECTREX to develop an innovative range of programmable microprocessor-based transducers for electrical parameters whose outstanding versatility and ease-of-application satisfy a wide range of customer requirements in terms of electrical parameter control and energy cost management.

Advanced auto-compensation technology guarantees excellent measurement reliability and stability, even in the most adverse operating conditions. Instruments are housed in a modular-designed case (6 modules for DEPT - EST- DEC; 9 modules for DEC-3) suitable DIN rail mounting (35 mm rail). All circuits and internal insulation comply with industrial grade international standards (IEC 1010 - VDE 411, Class 2).

Instruments are suitable for installation in singlephase, balanced three-phase (DEPT and DEC) or unbalanced three-phase 4-wire star and 3 -wire delta (EST and DEC-3) networks.

Measurements are RMS values with automatic current (3 scales) and voltage (2 scales) scale change.

Functions are easily selected by dip-switch.

The following models are available :

DEPT

The CT primary current is selected using dip-switches 5, 6, 7 and 8. Refer to the table on page 21 for available CT primary ratings.

It should be noted that the magnitude of the CT primary automatically determines the value of each pulse and hence, the resolution of an associated pulse counter.

A 7-digit electro-mechanical counter is mounted on the front panel of DEC and DEC-3 units to permit direct energy consumption readings (for more information see para. 5.2.4).

Examples:

l

CT= 20/5

Pulse value= 0.1 kWh*

Counter resolution = 999 999.9 kWh * l

CT=200/5

Pulse value= 1 kWh*

Counter resolution = 9 999 999 kWh*

* The instrument provides kWh, kVAh or kvarh readings depending on the parameter selected.

Accurate energy totals are guaranteed even in the case of very small loads.

The instrument's internal floating point mathematics is able to count energy increments down to 10 -4 of the pulse value.

DEC and DEC-3 units feature a non-resettable 7-digit electro-mechanical counter mounted on the front panel.

A set of 9 labels is supplied with these instruments to facilitate pulse counter reading.

You can therefore customise the instrument by choosing the appropriate label for the selected parameter (kWh, kVAh or kvarh) and CT primary range (see Fig. 28) and affixing it to the counter.

Example:

In the example the required label is located in the "kWh" row (selected parameter) and "100-800" column (CT primary range) as shown in Fig. 28.

5.3 DEPT-485 and EST-485

DEPT-485 and EST-485 units are electrical parameter transducers with an RS485 interface for network connection to a PC or PLC. Up to 32 instruments can be network-connected over a distance of up to 1000 m. without amplification. The system may be further expanded to a maximum of 247 measuring points using additional line amplifiers. DEPT-485 and EST-485 units are particularly suited for the following applications:

– data acquisition systems for quality control of production processes;

– networks for monitoring electrical energy consumption and the status of components (eg: motors, transformers, etc.);

– maximum demand control and load shedding in combination with PLCs or PC- networked applications for the reduction of energy bills;

– computerised energy cost-accounting and division of electrical energy bills between departments, etc.

Functions are controlled by an RS485 interface using MODICON's MODBUS communication protocol.

* EST-485 provides both the three-phase and phase measurements of U, I and P values. The threephase voltage is calculated as the average value of the three phase to phase voltages, while the threephase current is the current equivalent to a balanced and symmetrical system (see formulae on page 14).

The average power values are calculated by sliding window mathematics.

DEPT-485 and EST-485 units use a data communication system based on MODBUS protocol.

MODBUS functions and the use of registers are detailed in a special technical document available on request from ELECTREX S.r.l.

The instrument is equipped with three terminals for connection of the output to the RS485 interface

(Fig. 30).

The output connection must be made using a twisted pair.

The instrument is also equipped with a terminal for connection of the shield (sheath) required for network installations in environments prone to heavy interference or strong currents.

Use a twisted pair cable with minimum crosssection of 0.36 mm

2

(22 AWG) and capacity of less than 60 pF/m (ie: BELDEN cable type EIA RS485

- Ref. 3105 A).

If the environment in which the instruments are installed is not prone to interference or strong currents, the connection may be made using an unshielded twisted pair.

Line amplifiers must be used if the distance between the PC and instruments exceeds 1000 m. or if more than 32 instruments are installed.

The PC is equipped with an RS232 interface. A RS232/RS485 converter must therefore be used to connect the twisted pair (the cables are identified by the letters “A” and “B”).

Connect a line termination resistor (R

T

= 100

- 120

) between the two twisted pair cables leading from the converter at the end of the network (last instrument connected).

The instruments must be connected to the twisted pair so that the terminals marked “A” (instrument label) are connected to cable “A” (red) and the terminals marked “B” are connected to cable “B” (white) at the output of the RS232/RS485 converter (See Fig. 31).

If the environment in which the instruments are installed is prone to interference or strong currents, the connection must be made using a shielded twisted pair (2x0.25).

Line amplifiers must be used if the distance between the PC and instruments exceeds 1000 m. or if more than 32 instruments are installed.

The PC is equipped with an RS232 interface. A RS232/RS485 converter must therefore be used to connect the twisted pair (the cables are identified by the letters “A” and “B” and the shield by “ ").

Connect a line termination resistor (R

T

= 100

- 120

) between the two twisted pair cables leading from the converter at the end of the network (last instrument connected). The shield must be earthed.

The instruments must be connected to the twisted pair so that the terminals marked “A” (instrument label) are connected to cable “A”, the terminals marked “B” are connected to cable “B” and the terminals marked “ " are connected to the shield at the output of the RS232/RS485 converter (see Fig. 32).

The transmission/reception protocol used by the

RS485 interface (MODBUS) permits the creation of data collection systems with up to 247 measurement points. A maximum of 32 instruments can be connected on a common line over a distance of up to 1000 m from the PC. If the number of instruments exceeds 32 or the distance between them and the PC is over 1000 m, line amplifiers must be used to guarantee correct data transmission/ reception (see Fig. 34 below).

5.4 DEC-485 and DEC3-485

The wiring diagrams and output specifications for DEC-485 and DEC3-485 are the same as those specified for DEPT-485 and EST-485 units (see para. 5.3 of this manual).
