Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual System Overview Wireless Smart DC Monitors Overview Wireless Smart DC Power Monitors enable the measurement of DC current and voltage and together provide can provide power and energy information. The system utilizes independent current and voltage monitors. These monitors report the respective voltages and currents wirelessly to a Gateway. The Gateway aggregates the information from all monitors and places the data on a conventional Ethernet network. The information can be sourced from the Gateway in Modbus TCP/IP or SNMP protocol for use with any third party monitoring system as well as routed directly to Packet Power’s EMX Energy portal, a local or cloud application for instant access to the data. System Components Wireless Current Monitors: Wireless current monitors sense the current on the DC bus and transmit the data via an integrated radio. There are two types of wireless current monitors; versions with integrated solid core current transducers (CTs) for applications 65A and below and versions with remote current transducers for higher current applications or for use with split core current transducers to enable installation without removing the conductor. Wireless Current transducers are supplied by a DC source. This source can come from the Universal Power Supply (see power supply section) or directly from the DC bus. See the Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual P5C-DCX1 chart for input voltage specifications and make sure that the monitor matches the voltage level of the DC bus. Each monitor will report current and an Amp Hour (Ah) total for it’s circuit. An unlimited number of current monitors can be used in an network as long as sufficient Gateway capacity is available.

WARNING: The voltage supply sensors are only provided for acquiring power and voltage for the monitoring device and not intended to sustain the load current path. Display Module / Wireless Hub The Display Module displays values for all monitors within rage. It can also act as a Wireless Hub or “repeater” for modules housed inside a metallic enclosure or in areas that limit the radio propagation. Note that this module requires a 5VDC source which is typically provided by universal power supply. Display Module / Wireless Hub Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual Wireless Ethernet Gateway The Wireless Ethernet Gateway receives information from up to 150 monitors and places them on the network. The Gateway can provide data in SNMP, Modbus TCP/IP protocols or directly to Packet Power EMX Energy Portal. Ethernet Gateway Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual Monitor Installation Module Placement IMPORTANT: All monitoring modules utilize radio frequency transmission to communicate. If the modules are mounted inside a fully enclosed metal enclosure it will impair the radio signal. In cases where monitors are fully enclosed in a metallic enclosure, it is required to use a “Wireles Hub / Display Module” that penetrates the metallic enclosure to allow the signal to be propagated. For more information on how to install the relay module refer to the “Smart Current Monitor” manual. Wireless Hub / Display Module used when monitors are fully enclosed in metallic enclosures or have poor radio propagation Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual Module Mounting Options DIN RAIL: The DIN Rail mounting kit provides a means to mount the modules using standard DIN rail. The back of the module(s) is fitted with a standard 35mm DIN rail. Up to two modules can be mounted to a single rail. DIN rail mounts affix to the base of the modules. ADHESIVE: Modules can be mounted using the available high strength adhesive tabs. When mounting using adhesive tabs, the opposing surface must be clean, dry and have a suitable mating surface. MECHANICAL: Modules are available with mounting tabs. The mounting tabs can be used to mechanically fasten the modules using wire ties, screws or other mechanical fasteners. 42.80 [1.685] 12.00 [.472] 3.50 [.138] Wireless Monitor mechanical mounting tabs. Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual Current Monitor Installation Wireless Current Monitors are connected using the specified wiring harness assemblies that are terminated with polarized locking connectors. Modules can share a single power supply which can be daisy chained to other modules. The current monitoring system consists of: 1) DC input power supply 2) Module interconnect harnesses to distribute power between modules 3) Monitoring Modules (either with an integrated CT or remote CT) 4) External CT and External CT harnesses (when using external CTs) Current Transducer Placement and Orientation: It is critical to correctly orientate the direction of the current transducer in relation to the conductor to avoid getting negative power readings. When using the models with an integrated current transducer, follow the directions below. For models with an external current transducer, consult the CT specification sheet for the correct orientation. Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual DC Input Supply Harness: The DC Input Supply Harness is designed to bring power from the DC bus to the first Current Monitor. This harness is designed with a bare wire end for connection to a DC voltage source. The other end utilizes a 2 pin polarized connector and can terminate on either of the two DC source points on the modules as these connections are common to allow daisy chain connections for the power source. Always make sure the polarity and voltage are correct before connecting the harness to a module. DC Input Supply Harness Module Interconnect Harness: The module interconnect harnesses facilitate sharing a power source between multiple modules. The harnesses are terminated with 2 pin polarized connectors and are available in different lengths. The connector can terminate on either of the two DC source points on the modules as these connections are common. Remote CT Harness: When using remote CT versions of the current sensing modules, the remote CT is connected with a three pin polarized connector to the remote CT. Harnesses may be field extended if required or can be ordered in specific lengths. Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. 10 Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual Remote Current Transducers: Remote current transducers are used in applications requiring higher current sensing or a larger diameter window than can be provided by the integrated current sensor or when the conductor cannot be removed and requires a split core transducer. The remote current transducers are available in a wide variety of form factors and current ratings. Consult Packet Power for a full listing of available remote current transducers. Remote Current Transducers (CTs) Wireless Voltage Monitor Installation WARNING: Always observe caution working with DC voltage. Failure to do so can result in death or severe injury. This system is intended for installation by qualified electrical professionals. Power for the voltage monitor is sourced directly from the DC bus being monitored so the monitor must always be connected to the same DC bus it is monitoring. Only one Wireless Voltage Monitor is needed per DC bus to allow the Gateway to provide power calculations as the voltage can be shared between any numbers of current monitors on the bus. Note that if there are significant line voltage drops on the bus being monitored, the Wireless Voltage Monitor should be placed in a location on the bus where the best representative voltage can be sourced. Be sure to use the correct rated Wireless Voltage Monitor for the specified current range. Always observe the correct polarity of the connections. Failure to so may result in permanent damage to the meter. Connections to the Wireless Voltage Monitor can be made through the two terminals on the top of the module which are designed to accommodate bare conductor from 12 AWG to 20 AWG. To insert the wiring into push down on the connector tab, insert conductor and release tab. Always make sure the conductor is secured by giving a slight pull on the cable. The Wireless Voltage Monitor is internally fused but it is suggested that external overcurrent protection in the form of an inline fuse with a 0.5A rating be used with the voltage sensing Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. 11 Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual leads. The polarity of the fusing may vary depending on the configuration of your DC system. Wireless Voltage Monitor with overcurrent protection. Wireless Voltage Monitor with wiring installed. Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC. 12 Packet Power™ Wireless Smart DC Monitoring System Manual Communications Information gathered by the Wireless DC Monitors is transmitted via a Packet Power radio network operating at 2.4 GHz. The network operates in a mesh topology. Each device in the network must be within range of at least one other device (either another monitoring node or the Gateway) in the network. The effective range of the radio in the Wireless DC Monitors varies depending on several factors, including the environment in which the product is used. Typically, each device has an effective range of 20 to 50 meters. The Wireless DC Monitors will not transmit effectively if it is installed in an enclosure that entirely blocks radio signals such as fully enclosed metallic enclosures. In such cases a Wireless Hub must be used to relay the signal to outside the enclosure. Every site where a Smart Power Cable is deployed must have installed at least one compatible Packet Power Gateway and associated software to collect data and prepare it for transmission to approved monitoring and analysis applications. It is not necessary for all Wireless DC Monitors to communicate directly with the Gateway. As long as each monitor can communicate with at least one other monitor in a sequential relay mode, and one monitor in the network can also communicate with the Gateway, information from all monitors will reach the Gateway. The rate at which power monitoring information is gathered from a cable depends primarily on the ratio of the number of monitors to the number of gateways. As an example, at a ratio of 100 monitors per Gateway, a Gateway should read from each cable every 5 to 15 seconds. The system will automatically reallocate network traffic across Gateways when new Gateways or devices are added. Ideally one Gateway shall be used for a maximum of every 150 Wireless DC Monitors reporting to the Gateway. Copyright 2015 © Packet Power, LLC.
