Meters
|
Monitor your batteries, loads and charging. A voltmeter is usually connected with small wires and fuse to the battery or distribution box. It can be mounted near the control box or in a convenient to read location. Ammeters are connected in series with a battery lead. Digital meters are easy to read. |

A quick look at the TriMetric Battery Monitor and you will know how much power is left in your
battery. This meter can help you operate your energy system more effectively for
better battery life and power. It shows and keeps track of amps going in or out
of battery.
Charge light shows when battery is charging.
Battery reminder light shows when:
1. Battery should be
recharged. 2. Battery needs equalize charge.
3. Battery voltage is too low.
Extra memory features shows total days
since full charge, amp hours removed since full charge, total amp hours removed
from beginning— up to one million, maximum and minimum battery voltage since
last reset. Also retains last
5 days of maximum battery voltage and minimum charging amps which is helpful in
troubleshooting battery system. |

A shunt is required for the TriMetric Battery Monitor. We have two sizes. 500 amp 50 mv shunt is the most popular shunt. Systems with inverters usually need the 500 amp shunt. This shunt allows the meter to read down to 0.1 amps. A 100 amp shunt is available for systems with smaller amp loads (under 70 amps to prevent overheating). Accuracy is the same with either shunt, but the 100 amp shunt allows an extra digit of amp resolution - down to 0.01 amps. |

Shunts
for the TriMetric Battery Monitor Please provide forced ventilation if shunt
temperature exceeds 293 degrees Fahrenheit (145 degrees Centigrade).
These cables makes it simple to connect meter to shunt and to
the battery. 50’ Cable with fuse and ring connectors on one end. 22 gauge 4 wire twisted pair. M204 3 lbs $40 Special $32 |

Battery Monitor
12, 24,36, 48 volt
Low cost and simple to use. Colored LEDs show approximate
state of charge (based on battery voltage) in 10 percent increments. They
are red for low, amber mid-range and green for upper range. On the left are
3 LEDs: green for battery fully charged recently, yellow for not fully
charged for a week, and red for not fully charged for 2 weeks. Install
indoors in dry protected area within 30' of battery. Simple connection to
battery positive and negative. Maximum input voltage is 70 volts. Average
consumption current at 12 volts is 15mA. Reverse polarity protected up to
100 volts. Automatic voltage selection. Internal jumper to select flooded, AGM or Gel battery type. 4.75"
x 3.76" x .85" |

Kill A Watt meter Electricity usage monitor Kilowatt-Hours, Watts, Volts, Amps, Hz, Power Factor, Volt-Amps, Elapsed Time The cost of electricity can really hit
your where it hurts. Now with Kill A Watt you can reduce energy costs and
identify the real energy abuser's. Simply plug your appliances into Kill A Watt
and it will assess how efficient they really are. Large LCD display will count
consumption by the kilowatt-hour just like your local utility company. You can
figure out your electrical expenses by the day, week, month, or year. Evaluate
the quality of the electrical power provided by your utility company by
monitoring voltage (Volt), line frequency (Hz) and power factor (VA). Perfect
for detecting voltage drops and brownout conditions before they damage delicate
equipment.
Find parasitic loads and wasted energy. Monitor refrigerator, freezer, microwave
oven, toaster, mixer, clocks, TV, VCR, radio, stereo, lights, fans, garage door
opener, computer, monitor, printer, copier, cordless phone, battery charger,
clothes washer, gas clothes dryer, vacuum cleaner, etc.
The knowledge you gain from Kill A Watt can save you thousands of
dollars. Maximum voltage is 125 VAC, maximum current is 15 amps, maximum power
is 1875 VA, 0.01 to 9999 KWH maximum, 9999 hours maximum. Counters will reset to
zero when they reach maximum. 5-1/8" x 1-5/8" x 2-3/8". Made in China.
Kill A Watt EZ meter 120 volt AC
Kilowatt-Hours, Watts, Volts, Amps, Hz, Power Factor, Volt-Amps, Elapsed Time,
Similar to above meter but with more features. Has
Built-in Battery Backup and can calculate dollar costs and forecast by the
day, week, month or year. Made in China. |
