1. Description
Expert PDU energy 8001
is a 19“ device, that makes it possible
to measure energy consumption for two channels.
It operates as an energy consumption meter and measures cur-
rent, voltage and active/apparent power. All of these information
can be requested by Ethernet or directly at the device.
The energy consumption meter measures the spent energy on
two counters, one shows the total energy consumption since
starting-up
Expert PDU energy 8001
, the other counter is re-
settable.
