Schneider Electric, the global
specialist in energy management,
has announced upgrades to its Power
Monitoring Expert software. Power
Monitoring Expert version 8.1 is
a complete supervisory software
package for power management
applications. The software collects
and organises data gathered from
the facility’s electrical network and
presents it as meaningful, actionable
information via an intuitive web
interface.
Ƥ
8.1 is Power Quality Advisor. This
is a module which allows facility
managers and energy managers to
understand power quality impact on
production and the associated costs.
Advanced analytics automatically
triages disturbances through an
easy to understand colour code. If
the indicator is red, a severe event
has occurred that may impact
production or equipment. Yellow
indicates a status is approaching a
threshold or limit. Green indicates
that your power is operating within
an acceptable quality range.
With Power Monitoring Expert
version 8.1, end users can:
• Increase production uptime by
understanding how power quality
impacts processes and providing
corrective actions
• Monitor system reliability with
Power Quality Rating, this ensures
the ongoing health of electrical
systems and increases energy
awareness
• Print and analyse reports and share
ƪ
decision making, resulting in cost
and energy savings
• Decrease costs related to Power
Quality issues, for example
production downtime and power
factor penalties
• Troubleshoot and analyse power
quality via the Power Quality
Advisor analytics interface
• Save time that would otherwise be
spent trying to make sense of raw
power quality data via an intuitive
dashboard.
