1.- INTRODUCTION CIRWATT is a multi-purpose three-phase, four quadrant, digital meter. Its great versatility is its main feature, allowing it to adapt to the needs of the individual user. It has been especially designed for installations where the electro-mechanical meters do not meet the current requirements.
3.- SAFETY LEVELS (Seals) CIRWATT has the necessary seals to ensure that the meter is not tampered CHANGE SCREEN with. Once the meter is installed, these GROUP BUTTON seals must always be attached. ⇒ Terminal cover seals. CHANGE SCREEN BUTTON These seals are attached once the equipment has been installed.
The units for any power or energy data transmitted via the protocol will be kW, kWh, kvarh, regardless of how they are displayed. 4.1.- Display Modes. 4.1.1.- STAND BY Mode Whenever READING mode is not activated by pressing the corresponding reading button/s, this screen will always appear as a default.
4.2.- Types of screen. There are three types of screen: 4.2.1.- Stand by screen The STAND BY screen presents information without needing to use any of the equipment's buttons. This is typically used to show to the customer the necessary information for him to control measurement in the easiest way possible.
