Range of functions KBR multimax 3D6 Range of functions The energy control system multimax 3D6 can make a considerable contri- bution to reducing the energy costs in your company. Monitoring of the energy consumption The peak power is an important cost factor for special tariff customers.
KBR multimax 3D6 Range of functions Switch-off of consumers via relay outputs The basic module disposes of 5 non-floating relay contacts to switch off the consumers involved in the optimization. Using additional 4-stage components, up to 32 switching outputs can be realized (see "Connection of additional modules").
Range of functions KBR multimax 3D6 The contact switches for example in case of negative compensation power, if no line is available for switching off and the trend power is higher than the target value. The hysteresis for switching off is always 10 sec, there is no hysteresis for switching on.

KBR multimax 3D6 This means: The contact switches if the cumulated power is higher than 90 kW (90% of the target value) and the message E20 Prewarning contact active is issued. There is no hysteresis, since the cumulated power increases with the end of the measuring period.
KBR multimax 3D6 This means: The contact switches if the trend power is higher than 90 kW (90% of the target value) and the message E20 Prewarning contact active is issued. The reset hysteresis is 10 kW, meaning the contact would switch at a trend power of 80 kW (90% of the target value minus 10kW hysteresis).
