The PMC-53A Intelligent Multifunction Meter is CET’s latest offer for the
low-cost digital power/energy metering market. Housed in a standard DIN
form factor measuring 96x96x74mm, it is perfectly suited for industrial,
commercial and utility applications. The PMC-53A features quality
construction, multifunction measurements and a large, backlit, Dot-Matrix
LCD that is easy to navigate and user friendly. Compliance with the IEC
62053-22 Class 0.5S Standard, it is a cost effective replacement for analog
instrumentation that is capable of displaying 4 measurements at once. It
optionally provides I4 input for Neutral Current measurement, a second
RS485 port, four Digital Inputs for status monitoring, two Relay Outputs for
control and alarm applications as well as other I/O options for different
applications.
