Contactless Current Meter
Non-invasive monitoring of multi core power cables up to 32 Amps.
Typical current transformers require access to a single live wire. The Contactless Current Meter (CCM) does not need any splitting of cables, needs no electrician to install and is completely non invasive. With an accuracy of +/-5% (on factory calibrated cable) and +/- 10% on in field calibrated cables, the CCM gives sufficient accuracy to check for sufficient power overhead in your data center for capacity planning. It can also warn when approaching the tripping point of your breakers, and be utilized for PuE calculations.
Monitor Current Without Cutting Wires
Most current transformers require you to have access to an individual wire. This
is not practical where you have the live, neutral and earth wires in a single
sheath. The AKCP Non-Invasive current meter allows you to monitor current (and
power if you have a reference voltage) in 2 core or 3 core cables. Our unique
current measurement technology makes measuring individual IT rack current and
power simpler, and lower cost than ever before.
Combine the Non-Invasive current meter with cabinet thermal map sensors.
Using our AKCPro Server combine current load, thermal map and differential air
pressure and analysis. analysis.
