Electro Industries/GaugeTech introduces industry leading
metering technology. Designed to address the most demanding
applications, the Shark• 100 surpasses others providing advanced
performance metering in a low cost, compact, panel meter design.
Based on an all new platform, this meter significantly
outperforms other devices many times its price. This unit is
perfect for new metering applications and for a simple
replacement to existing analog meters.
The unit utilizes high speed DSP technology with high resolution
A/D conversion to provide revenue certifiable accuracy for
Utility Billing, Substation Metering, Sub-metering and Critical
Metering applications.

New V-Switch• Technology
The Shark• 100 is equipped with EIG•s exclusive
V-Switch• Technology. V-Switch•, virtual switch
technology allows users, OEMs or Power Utilities to
minimize different levels of meters and reduce stocking
to one type of hardware. In this manner, the meter can
be expanded to meet the specific application even after
installation. Using V-Switches, you can purchase what
you require now and field upgrade functionality as
needed, which allows you to optimize your investment.
Advanced versions of the Shark• 100 (V3 and V4) also
include DNP 3.0 communication protocol.

|
Available V-Switches:
-
V-Switch 1 -- Volts and Amps Meter -- Default
-
V-Switch 2 -- Volts, Amps, kW, kVAR, PF, kVA, Freq.
-
V-Switch 3 -- Volts, Amps, kW, kVAR, PF, kVA, Freq., kWh, kVAh, kVARh and DNP 3.0
-
V-Switch 4 -- Volts, Amps, kW, kVAR, PF, kVA, Freq., kWh, kVAh, kVARh, %THD Monitoring, Limit Exceeded Alarms and DNP 3.0

Accuracy percentage of Voltage L-N, Voltage L-L, and Current is
0.1%. For Watts, Wh, VARs, VARh, VA, Vah, and PF the accuracy is
0.2%. Accuracy for Frequency is 0.01 Hz, %THD is 1%, and for %
load bar 1-120% readings.
The Shark• 100 is a traceable revenue meter, that contains a
utility grade test pulse allowing power providers to verify and
confirm that the meter is performing to its rated accuracy.

Easy to
Use and Install
The Shark 100 was engineered to be as easy to use and
install as possible. From user interface to mechanical
construction, many hours were spent to make the Shark
straightforward and intuitive so an installer with minimal meter
experience and training can succeed with the product. Shark is
programmed using a PDA, a PC Computer or through a simple keypad
interface. By using the PC or PDA, a technician or electrician
can see a visual phasor diagram of the vectors insuring that CT
and Voltage polarities are correct. All inputs are color
coordinated and have clear simple to understand labeling to
avoid cross wiring mistakes. |

Advanced
Communication Capability with IrDA Interface
Two independent communication ports with advanced features are
provided by the Shark 100:
-
RS485 (Option 485P) - This port allows RS485 communication
using Modbus or DNP 3.0 Protocols. Baud rates are from 9600
to 57.6k
-
Ethernet (Option INP10) - 10/100 BaseT Ethernet with Modbus
TCP protocol
-
Optical IrDA port which allows unit to be set up and
programmed using PDA or remote laptop without communication
cable
-
Point at meter with IrDA-equipped PC or PDA and configure it
-
EXT COPILOT is a Windows Pocket PC software package which
allows you to point at a Shark, configure it and poll
readings

Superior Voltage and Current Inputs
-
Ruggedly designed for harsh electrical applications on both
high and low voltage power systems.
-
Voltage inputs allow measurement to 416 Volts Line to
Neutral and 721 Volts Line to Line, which ensures proper
meter safety when wiring directly to high voltage systems.
-
Current inputs use a dual input method: CT Pass Through and
Current •Gills•
-
CT Pass Through • Preferable to utility users when sharing
relay class CTs because the CT passes directly through the
meter without any physical termination on the meter, which
ensures the meter cannot be a point of failure on the CT
circuit.
-
Current •Gills• • This method provides additional ultra
rugged termination pass-through bars, allowing the CT leads
to be terminated on the meter.

Utility
Peak Demand Metering
The Shark 100 meter provides user configured fixed window
or rolling window demand. This allows you to set up the
particular utility demand profile. A Fixed window demand is the
demand used over a user configured demand period (usually 5, 15
or 30 minutes). A rolling window demand is a fixed window demand
that moves for a user specified sub-interval period. An example
is a 15 minute demand using 3 sub-interval provides a new demand
reading every 5 minutes based on the last 15 minutes. Readings
for kW, kVAR, kVA and PF are calculated using utility demand
features. All other parameters offer max and min capability over
the user selectable averaging period. Voltage provides an
instantaneous max and min reading displaying the highest surge
and lowest sag seen by the meter. |
|
Physical Configuration
The unit mounts directly in an ANSI C39.1 (4•
Round form) and an IEC 92 mm DIN square form. This is
perfect for new installations and for existing panels.
In new installations, simply use existing DIN or ANSI
punches. For existing panels, pull out old analog meters
and place this meter in its place. The meter uses
standard voltage and current inputs so that CT and PT
wiring does not need to be replaced. |
