Eaton is pleased to announce the availability of the centralization unit LM50-TCP for energy management system applications packed with features. It is designed to record KWH energy pulses as well as gas and water pulses. It is DIN rail mount with dimensions 158x90x59mm. It is compatible with all the Circutor energy meters as well with other brand energy meters with the remark that the duration of the pulse should not be less than 100 milliseconds (50 milliseconds for ON plus 50 milliseconds for OFF). It can accept up to fifty (50) energy meters as opto-coupled inputs by connecting one wire from each meter to the respective LM50-TCP input and looping the common. It is powered with a standard 240Vac single phase. Built-in with retentive memory that can hold the data even if a power failure occurred. It acts as a gateway to interface up to 31 RS485 devices connected in a daisy chain configuration. All the data in its memory (from 50 inputs & RS485 devices) can be communicated via an RJ45 Ethernet using a UDP or TCP protocol (selectable) and can be interfaced to a BMS/PLC systems or central management PC. Each memory register is 32 bits and therefore up to FFFF FFFF in hexadecimal equivalent to 4,294,967,295 pulses can be reached before starting again from zero.
