Description

Eaton’s Power Xpert Branch Circuit Monitor (PXBCM) is an advanced remote power monitoring solution that provides customers with greater visibility of energy usage and enhanced control response to energy loads and circuits all the way down to the plug level.
The electrical monitoring solution is designed to help support improved power management and power usage efficiency in high-density industrial sites or across an entire enterprise.
As the power demands on today’s facilities continue to grow, the PXBCM from Eaton helps customers cost effectively monitor, integrate, and protect mission-critical electrical equipment and data systems while improving overall uptime and reliability.
By combining advanced sensing, monitoring and reporting capabilities down to the plug level, the PXBCM provides remote access to live, circuit-level energy usage data for entire facilities. Reported data can be viewed and managed from an intuitive onboard web interface that provides overload alerts when circuits are close to exceeding acceptable power threshold levels.
The PXBCM meter also helps track power usage to minimize or prevent downtime while meeting or exceeding compliance with changing building codes and regulations.
In line with Eaton’s leading Power Xpert energy and power management product suite, the PXBCM safeguards reliability while supporting efforts to improve overall energy efficiency while providing cost savings. This meter is simple to install, integrates easily with other systems, and provides detailed and accurate information for beneficial cost analysis.

• Embedded Web Server allows users to see and analyze waveforms, trends, and harmonics directly in web browser or LCD meter graphic display.
• Automatic power quality analysis and trigger setting with built-in ITIC (Information Technology Industry Council) performance curve detects and captures sags, swells, transients, and flickers.
• Assesses circuit activity at extremely high sampling rates (up to 100,000 samples per cycle) to accurately detect fast transients that previous generation monitors would miss.
• Up to 1 millisecond time synchronization and event logging capability for sequence of events analysis.
• Energy usage patterns can be effortlessly analyzed with the month-to-month, week-to-week comparison chart.
• 24×7 support and continuous monitoring with a permanently installed meter reduces cost of power quality monitoring.
• Industry-standard communication protocols support a multitude of configurations and third-party software: HTTP, FTP, Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, SNMP, SMTP, NTP, COMTRADE.
• Power Xpert Meter Profiler free download compares “expected” energy consumption patterns to present usage and flags areas of concern using deviations from modeled energy patterns. See the results in an easy-to-understand visualization of energy usage.
