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.
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.
There are also two communications ports available on the Shark100 - One port provides RS485 communication speaking Modbus ASCII or Modbus RTU protocol. (9600 - 57,600 baud) and a second IrDA port is available for remote setup, polling and reading. DNP 3.0 protocol is also included with V-Switch packages V3 and V4. (See the 'features' or 'configure' tab for details of V-Switch package options.)
