The Next Generation Energy Logger from Dent Instruments
The Dent Instruments ELITEpro SP is a complete solution for pinpointing electric usage and quantifying energy usage. It is capable of measuring, storing, and analyzing electrical consumption data which is derived from the voltage and current inputs. The ELITEpro SP uses direct connections to each phase of the voltage and various interchangeable CT options such as split-core current transformers or fl exible RoCoils™ (for large loads or large cables and bussbars) to monitor current on each phase.These meters can capture kWh/kW energy and demand data as well as virtually all relevant energy parameters for diagnostics and monitoring on three-phase or single-phase circuit installations. Electrical load diagnostic parameters such as power factor (both Apparent and Displacement) are captured in addition to energy and demand values.
The ELITEpro SP flexibility, size, and ease-of-use make them ideal tools for gathering detailed consumption information in commercial, industrial, government and retail environments.
Anatomy of ELITEpro SP
Line Powered with Reduced Impact on the Environment
The ELITEpro SP is powered directly from the phases of the service being measured. It incorporates a broadband power supply which operates on virtually any 60-600V service. You will not have to worry about constantly changing or recharging batteries, nor finding an external power source at the job site. And you will avoid the negative environmental impact of disposing of batteries containing rare earth materials that are difficult to recycle or reclaim.Memory for Extended Recording
Measurements are stored in on-board memory at recording intervals selected by the user, which can be as short as one second or as long as once every 24 hours.The ELITEpro SP has 8MB of internal non-volatile memory, which allows for long-term logging sessions. For example, with a WYE setup and recording all available system measurements ON with 2 minute integration interval, the ELITEpro SP can log for for over 80 days!Fast Sampling Rate Captures Power Quality Data
Regardless of the user-selectable recording interval, the ELITEpro SP has a waveform sampling frequency of 12 kHz. This is the number of data points the logger samples on each AC waveform (200 points per cycle at 60 Hz; 240 points per cycle at 50 Hz). The channel sampling rate is 8 Hz or every 125 mSec. This fast sampling rate allows for real-time display of voltage and current waveforms and harmonics.Exclusive CT Phase Error Correction
All CTs exhibit both a ratio error and phase shift error. The CT phase error results from the phase relationship of the input versus output signal difference. This inherent phase angle error affects power readings if left uncorrected. When using CTs with a known phase angle error, the ELITEpro SP can correct for this error—making your calculations more accurate, particularly on loads with low power factor.Wide Selection of CTs
The ELITEpro SP uses various interchangeable CT options such as split-core, clamp-on, or fl exible RoCoil™ current transformers. With the ELITEpro SP comes embedded Rogowski coil CT amplifi er/integrator circuitry—no need to provide external power to the CTs. All DENT CTs are internally shunted for intrinsically safe operation on energized conductors. Special high-accuracy CTs are available for existing CT secondary monitoring. The ELITEpro SP can monitor up to four single-phase loads, two three-phase (3-wire) Delta loads or one three-phase (4-wire) WYE load.Scroll down to view optional accessories you can get with your ELITEpro SP.
