Continental Control Systems
The CCS Multi-Circuit Meter (MCM) for Modbus measures bi-directional energy, power, voltage, current, etc. for up to 84 single-phase or 28 three-phase circuits.
It communicates using either Modbus
RTU over RS-485 of Modbus TCP/IP over Ethernet. The MCM provides revenue-grade system accuracy when used with the CCS Accu-CT family of revenue-grade current transformers. Line powered from 100-600 Vac, the MCM provides all the standard features of the WattNode Modbus meter, and is available as a NEMA 4. www.ctlsys.com
eGauge Systems
The eGauge combines an energy meter, data logger, and a web server. This powerful combi- nation lets users measure, store, and retrieve data directly from the device or from a remote location. Not only does it calculate power (V,
A, VAr, kWh, etc), but also data from optional sensors that assess flow rate, temperature,
wind speed, and more. Users can view historical and live data for up to 30 years with the unit’s convenient user interface (UI). The UI can be accessed on a local network or via the internet from a computer, tablet, or smartphone. Once connected, users have access to real-time values, long-term reports, an interactive graphical inter- face, and many other tools.

EKO Instruments USA
ISO 17025 accredited solar radiometer manufacturer. ISO 9060:2018 Class A Spectrally Flat and Fast Response pyranometers yielding low measure-
ment uncertainties and meeting class A monitoring requirements of IEC 61724-1. All sensors and instrumentation provide onboard diagnostics and data quality assurance features. 5-year warranty and recalibration interval yields low cost of ownership sensors with high performance. www.eko-usa.com
OTT HydroMet
Kipp and Zonen’s DustIQ can be easily added to new or existing solar arrays
and integrated into plant management systems. The unit is mounted to the frame of a PV panel and does not need sunlight to operate. It continuously measures the transmission loss through glass caused by soiling, so that the reduction in light reach- ing the solar cells can be calculated. www.otthydromet.com
