Optimise Energy Usage with Reliable Power Monitoring

First Published by moxa.com

Improving energy efficiency to reduce cost remains a priority for industrial applications. Monitoring power quality, energy consumption, and device status provides operators with the necessary information to maximise power usage. With more power devices and systems now connected to networks, developing a reliable connection between your power devices and energy management systems is crucial. To ensure that system operators receive power-related data on time, Moxa has a wide range of products, including protocol gateways, remote I/Os, and Ethernet media converters, to help you enable reliable and secure connectivity in a variety of power monitoring applications.

Easy, Reliable, and Secure Device Connectivity

EMI Immunity

It’s important to maintain stable connections in the extreme environments where power devices are placed. Featuring fiber connectivity, serial isolation, and dual power inputs, our device connectivity solutions endure EMI to minimise interruptions.

Easy Deployment

Don’t let mass connected devices wear you down. Our device connectivity solutions support Ethernet cascading, mass configuration tools, and efficient protocol troubleshooting, making deployment easy for you.

Enhanced Security

To ramp up your edge device security, our device connectivity solutions come with embedded security functions such as user authentications and HTTPS connection, helping you reduce the risk of unwanted access.

Enabling Your Power Monitoring Applications

Power Quality Monitoring

Power devices deployed nearby main power sources, such as switchgears, automated transfer switches (ATS), and uninterrupted power supply (UPS), require constant monitoring to ensure the power quality is at an acceptable level. This case study describes how Moxa’s solution enabled our client’s power quality monitoring applications in their data centers.

Power Consumption Monitoring

Enhancing power usage efficiency and reducing energy are many business’ main goals. Monitoring the operational status of your power distribution unit (PDU) gives operators more information about their daily power consumption. Moxa helped our clients to enable reliable connectivity to ensure the transmission of accurate power usage data.

Environmental Monitoring

Environmental monitoring is not only used for maintaining stable operating environments, but also for providing insights on how to optimize efficiency. HVAC systems take up a huge chunk of your power consumption in factories and commercial buildings. An international hypermarket located in Taiwan chose Moxa’s solutions to enable their energy-efficient HVAC systems.
