Bulk energy measurement, draw out type, long range site configurable
with multi comms options
Apex 100 is an advanced high-end precision meter, specifically
designed for generation, transmission and consumer bulk
power transfer points. It supports the ICS DLMS open data
exchange protocol for ease of reading and for integration with
other systems. Comprehensive connectivity to back-end
systems for monitoring and billing is provided via various
communication technologies.

Ÿ Captive power plants (CPP), feeder monitoring, grid reactive and apparent measurement
substations and wind turbines Ÿ Total harmonic distortion (THD) measurement for
Ÿ On-line monitoring of energy exchange at various interface currents and voltages
points Ÿ Draw-out type meter module with automatic CT shorting
Ÿ Wide-range dual auxiliary power supply (AC and DC), with
Ÿ Metering for availability based tariffs (ABT) and open access
systems option for self-powering
Ÿ Dynamic error compensation for external current and
Ÿ Energy accounting systems
voltage transformers
Ÿ Intuitive graphical display for parameters and data
Ÿ Two metrology LEDs for simultaneous accuracy testing
Benefits of different parameters
Ÿ Four LEDs for energy redirection and status indication
Ÿ Elimination of data gaps and revenue losses through use of
Ÿ Comprehensive data storage for current and historical
hot-swappable meter modules, with automatic shorting of
readings and load survey data
external current transformers
Ÿ Flexible time-of-day tariff and maximum demand support,
Ÿ Minimal integration costs through multiple communications
with automatic billing
interfaces
Ÿ Multiple communication ports for local and remote data
Ÿ Complies with the DLMS open data exchange protocol transfer and for interfacing with external systems
Ÿ Maximum revenue integrity through highest possible level of Ÿ Interoperable DLMS and Modbus protocols for meter
metering system accuracy reading
Ÿ Efficient network management through accurate and
detailed energy flow data
Ÿ Suitable for diverse applications through wide-range voltage,
current and auxiliary supply inputs
