#N2-KW320 and N2-KW320Q Series– 8/14/23
Overview
4 Channel Power Meter, 0.1 Class, Multiple Communication
Protocols
The KW320 meter combines high performance with ease of
integration to provide a power and energy monitoring solution with
400 metering parameters. The KW320 series multifunction digital
power meter is designed using modern MCU and DSP technology
and its tamper-proof design is approved for revenue applications. It
integrates three-phase energy measuring and displaying, energy
accumulating, power quality analysis, malfunction alarming, data
logging and network communication. The meter measures
bidirectional, four quadrants kWh and kvarh. It provides
maximum/minimum records for power usage and power demand
parameters. All power and energy parameters can be viewed
remotely via Accuview Utility Software to monitor various
parameters. The meter comes standard to be mounted in a 4"
Round or an IEC 92mm DIN Square form or has the flexibility to be
mounted to 35mm DIN rail with the N2-AXM-DIN adapter (See
Accessories Ordering).
In addition, the KW320 also has an optional upgrade that includes a
NEMA 4X panel enclosure, pre-wired and labeled terminal for CT's,
terminal blocks for voltage input, and industrial grade fuses. The N2-KW320-P1-D-W-PC-C optional upgrade is an all-in-one Plug
n' play Pre-Wired Panel Enclosure that provides a perfect solution for retrofit projects where metering space is not pre-designed
in an electrical distribution panel. The meter supports user selectable RS-485 serial Modbus-RTU, BACnet™ MS/TP, multiple
Ethernet communication protocols, and Wi-Fi connection allows seamless integration with data acquisition systems. This product
provides demand measurement of Current, Active Power, Reactive Power and Apparent Power – see table 1 for all parameters
monitored and metered. It also provides demand forecasting as well as the peak demand. The KW320 series meter can record
the time and event regarding important parameter events such as the run time of the meter and alarm functions. The KW320
meter will accept both 333mV and Rogowski coil CT inputs (Input Field Selectable). Meters come standard with a four channel CT
input to accurately measure neutral current. CTs are sold separately as shown on the Split-Core, Solid-Core and Rogowski
Current Transformer product data sheets.
Applications: Tenant Billing, Data Centers, Sub-Metering Electrical Panel, Equipment Load Monitoring, Industrial Applications,
Predicted Maintenance, Renewable Energy, Overhead Cost Reduction, "NET ZERO" Buildings, LEED Buildings, Green Buildings,
and Refrigeration
The KW320 Power Meters are covered by a Five (5) Year Limited Warranty
