Key Technical Specifications

Engineers select this energy monitor for its comprehensive measurement capabilities and compact design. It integrates seamlessly into switchboards, motor control centers, and distribution panels. Below, we detail the core technical parameters.

Detailed Features and Benefits

Comprehensive Power Quality Monitoring
The Schneider KOS 152 measures all key electrical parameters including voltage, current, and frequency. It calculates active, reactive, and apparent power along with cumulative energy consumption. Consequently, you gain complete visibility into your facility’s power usage patterns.

High-Accuracy Energy Measurement
With Class 0.5S accuracy, this monitor delivers precise energy data for sub-billing and verification. It meets international standards for revenue-grade metering applications. Therefore, you can confidently allocate energy costs to departments or processes.

Flexible Communication for System Integration
The built-in Modbus RTU (RS485) port allows seamless connection to building management systems. You can integrate the KOS 152 into existing SCADA or energy management platforms easily. This connectivity enables centralized monitoring and data analysis across multiple points.

User-Friendly Local Display
The backlit LCD screen provides immediate access to real-time measurements and totalized values. Operators can view critical data directly at the panel without external tools. As a result, you facilitate quick troubleshooting and on-site verification.

Versatile Inputs and Outputs for Advanced Functions
Multiple digital inputs allow connection to external meters or tariff management devices. Pulse outputs drive remote counters or provide energy verification signals. This flexibility supports sophisticated energy management strategies and regulatory compliance.

Compact Panel-Mount Design
The standard 96 mm x 96 mm form factor fits existing panel cutouts for easy retrofit installations. Its shallow depth accommodates space-constrained switchgear and control cabinets. Thus, you upgrade monitoring capabilities without major equipment modifications.

Applications for Energy Management

Industrial Submetering
The KOS 152 monitors energy consumption for production lines, processes, or individual machines. It provides the data needed for efficiency analysis and cost allocation. You can identify energy-intensive operations and target improvement efforts effectively.

Building Energy Management
For commercial facilities, this monitor tracks HVAC, lighting, and receptacle loads. It supports demand response programs and sustainability reporting requirements. Consequently, you achieve green building certifications and reduce operating expenses.

Power Distribution Monitoring
Install the KOS 152 at key points in electrical distribution systems for comprehensive oversight. It detects unbalanced loads, power factor issues, and harmonic content. Early identification of these conditions prevents equipment failures and improves reliability.
