smart Power Networks - Energy Management Measuring The key to energy management is being able to record all of the company’s relevant consumption-based power data. The power usage of your main consumer loads must be measured and analysed for optimisation potential. In addition to the electrical loads which are recorded using these current transformers and meters, you should also be able to measure air consumption, heating energy and cooling capacity. This is why the smart Power Network provides all standard industrial interfaces for connecting any of your existing and other conventional meters. Collecting data The smartPN unit collects this measurement data, validates it, and checks that it is within the specified limits. The data is then forwarded via TCP/IP to your database. The data can be saved to the unit itself if your database is unreachable. The smartPN unit integrates into your existing network infrastructure so that you can use it to capture measurement data wherever you have network connectivity. The integrated switch also permits you to expand your network and connect to networkcompliant meters directly. The management functionality (including RSTP, MRP and VLAN) makes it is easy to use in a modern industrial network environment. Evaluating Data is processed in the central module of the Ha-VIS smartPN software suite and then displayed using the web interface. This is where consistency checks are run, metrics and virtual measuring points are determined, and automatic reports are generated. The following functions are available: •Individually customized and configured briefing reports and overviews • Line, column and pie charts • Sankey diagrams, heat maps and ABC analyses • Comparisons of time and measuring points • User-defined evaluation rules •User groups can be specified for alarm and messaging functions Optimising Based on this data and the many evaluative options, you can quickly and easily discover where your power saving potential lies. You can also demonstrate the potential savings that would be generated by any implemented changes. The liveview function enables you to get a detailed analysis of individual measurements: values are displayed directly with minimal delays so that you can analyse routines such as a machine’s start-up behaviour. Services HARTING supports you during the planning and implementation of your smart Power Networks energy management system. You can take advantage of our installation, configuration and maintenance service contracts, or use these services on an asneeded basis. Ha-VIS smart Power Networks System description 01 181
