In Line Power Meter

Inline Power Meter is essential for:
  • Checking how close you are to tripping your circuit breaker
  • Ensure sufficient power overhead before adding new equipment to a circuit
  • Billing individual clients in co-located services
  • Monitoring up to 16 In-Line Power Meters from a single sensorProbe+
AKCP In-Line Power Meter

Monitor Power of your IT racks, make any PDU into an intelligent PDU

Advantages

Removing the controller from your power strip allows you to use a low cost basic power strip. This gives several advantages, in addition to the cost savings.

  • A single IP address to monitor multiple cabinets.
  • Hot swappable controller, no downtime to cabinets if servicing is needed
  • More space for outlets on your power strip as the controller is moved out of the 0U space
  • As future needs increase, just change the power strip no need for new controller and power meter.

In-Line Power Meter Features

  • Monitor and switch an individual Appliance
  • Monitor complete Power Strip, turn a power strip into a smart PDU
  • Graph power, voltage, current parameters.
  • Receive alerts if electrical parameters exceed your pre-defined thresholds
  • Shutdown power automatically if over voltage, over current, or smoke detected
  • Optional Thermal Map for use in a Rack+ system
  • Optional Smoke Detector for Patent Pending Fire Suppression
  • Optional LCD Display
  • Bare end wires as standard or optional plug
  • 100-250 AVAC Input

Important Note

sensorProbe+ units auto detects the presence of the ILPM sensor

– The ILPM sensor is only compatible with the sensorProbe+ platform units.

– When plugging the first time or after upgrading a sensorProbe+ unit, the sensor’s firmware might be

upgraded by the unit and not be available right away.

– On the sensorProbeX+, the sensor can be used only on the main module sensor ports

Sensor count

ILPM : 5

ILPM-LR : 6

CTM : +9

CTHM : +11
