"CA168-S STS Compliant Prepayment KWH Meter: Advanced Split-Type
Design for Enhanced Security and Convenience"
The CA168-S is a state-of-the-art split-type STS compliant
prepayment kilowatt-hour (KWH) meter, designed for a variety of
prepaid metering applications in environments such as multi-dweller
complexes, Granny Flats, Individual Rented Units, Shops, Stores,
and Sporting Facilities. Here's an overview of its features and
benefits:
Key Features:
Adjustable Power Limit Trip: Allows for the customization of power
limits to prevent overconsumption and protect the electrical
system.
Enhanced Tamper Detection: Incorporates advanced sensors to detect
magnetic fields, reverse connections, and cover openings, ensuring
the integrity of the metering process.
Reverse Energy Measurement (SRE): Capable of measuring energy
consumed even when connected in reverse, providing accurate billing
information.
Information Toggled by Codes: Enables the display of different
information through coded inputs, allowing for easy access to
various meter readings and settings.
Tamper Trip Protection: Neutral Missing: Automatically detects and
responds to the absence of the neutral wire, preventing potential
tampering attempts.
Other Benefits:
a. Compact and Slim-Line Design: The meter's sleek design allows
for easy installation in confined spaces and blends seamlessly with
the surrounding environment.
b. PLC/RF Communication for MCU & UIU: Offers reliable
communication between the Metering and Control Unit (MCU) and the
User Interface Unit (UIU), with the option for PLC/RF communication
compatible with backend AMI servers upon request.
c. Time of Use (TOU), Multi-Rate, Tariff Control, Holiday Setting:
Provides flexible billing options, including time-based pricing,
multiple tariffs, and holiday settings, allowing for efficient
energy management.
d. 15-Year Designed Life: Ensures long-term reliability and reduces
the need for frequent replacements, saving costs for both utility
providers and consumers.
e. Enhanced Revenue Protection through Flexible Payment Control:
Offers various payment options and controls to help utility
providers manage risks and reduce the likelihood of non-payment.
The CA168-S is also available with a 35mm DIN RAIL, BS footprint
mounting, and can be connected to a CIU with a galvanically
isolated communication cable. Additionally, non-wired solutions for
PLC, RF, and MBUS are available on request, further reducing
installation and operational costs, minimizing payback periods, and
preventing potential tampering. With its robust design and advanced
features, the CA168-S is a reliable choice for prepaid metering
applications, providing enhanced security, convenience, and revenue
protection for both utility providers and consumers.
