by Shane Henson — October 30, 2013—E-Mon, a developer of solid-state electronic kilowatt-hour submeters and manufacturer of the E-Mon D-Mon product line, recently announced the addition of the Multi-Mon Multiple Branch Circuit Energy Monitor to its offerings.
This new three-phase, multi-function Ampere/volt demand meter is designed to provide improved energy efficiency and monitoring capabilities for multi-family, commercial, industrial, data center, and other branch circuit monitoring applications.
According to E-Mon, a single Multi-Mon metering unit can monitor any combination of single- or multi-phase inputs totaling 36 channels. Accordingly, this permits configuration of up to three dozen single-phase, 18 two-phase, 12 three-phase, or other load combinations up to the device’s maximum input capability. As such, Multi-Mon provides an off-the-shelf, “custom standard” solution for just about any branch circuit monitoring need.
E-MON says the Multi-Mon is especially valuable in bringing greater granularity of energy intelligence to existing building systems and will cut down on metering bill of materials, facilitate greater energy savings, and lower operating costs through optimized electrical system performance.
“The Multi-Mon branch circuit monitor complements E-Mon’s other advanced metering products by offering a packaged solution that systems designers and end users can easily integrate with their own equipment to provide an advanced solution for energy monitoring, tenant billing, cost allocation, power quality management and energy data visualization at the branch circuit level,” added Don Millstein, president of E-Mon.
