An effective energy management and power monitoring strategy is essential for the success of any energy provider or consumer, no matter their scale. The BlackBox G4400 series features an innovative PQZIP patent algorithm, which allows for constant waveform recording. This technology empowers you to foresee, forestall, and diagnose issues effortlessly, expelling the requirement to establish specific triggers or thresholds for event detection.
Elspec's advanced measurement approach employs a dual-range gain from two 16-bit ADCs, resulting in unmatched precision and resolution. Consequently, utilizing 16 simultaneous ADCs, each with a sampling rate of 1,024 samples per second, ensures unparalleled accuracy without any delays or interferences between channels.
The G4k's exceptional precision significantly exceeds the industry's most stringent standards. The BLACKBOX device series compiles with standard for:
The G4400 series comes with a built-in standard industrial protocol, ensuring effortless integration with any current SCADA system:
The G4400 series offers access to thousands of power quality and energy consumption metrics in real-time, along with advanced recordings of power disturbances that meet the market's top standards. The meter's design boasts the highest accuracy, making it suitable for use as a primary meter, a sub-meter, or as a tool for detecting discrepancies in electricity bills.
To ensure precise time-stamping up to 1μsec, the G4400 series employs a unique continuous synchronization algorithm utilizing SNTP, GPS, IRIG-B, and DCF-77. Each G4400 meter serves as an SNTP server, synchronizing every meter on the network via LAN, which allows for accurate time-stamping without the need for GPS.
There are nine options to select from, each with the choice of one or two optional Multi I/O Modules, available for the G4410, G4420, and G4430 models.
