MULTI-BRANCH SYSTEM

DMG power analyzers... They are designed primarily for network analysis, but accessories can be added to allow them to measure the parameters of numerous tasks, using quick and easy cabling. In industrial and commercial applications, installing a multi-load parameter monitoring system in an electrical panel is usually a complex and laborious task.

The conventional solution consisted of installing a measuring device for each load in the field, which resulted in difficult, complex and time-consuming wiring, as well as taking up considerable space in the panel.

LOVATO Electric now offers a completely new energy measurement system that is innovative, accurate and much simpler than the conventional approach, by sharing voltage measurements and delocalizing current measurements in the vicinity of the loads themselves.

This is EASY BRANCH, the LOVATO Electric multi-circuit measurement system, a true revolution in the field of energy monitoring.

With a single data access point and the current measuring modules installed below the loads, the EASY BRANCH system offers numerous benefits.

SIMPLE: The system is composed of a small number of components added to the network analyzer, such as the EXS0000 communication bus module, EXS4 current measurement modules... and EXS1..., EXS3... electronic or conventional /5A or/1A current transformers. This means that the system can handle up to 33 three-phase measuring points or 99 single-phase measuring points! Current measurement modules do not require special wiring to the EASY BRANCH bus – a normal connection with cat cable. 6 Ethernet is all that's needed. The system architecture facilitates integration into any energy management system.

FAST: For each current measurement module (EXS4000), only one RJ45 terminal cable must be connected to obtain up to 4 three-phase measurement points or 12 single-phase measurement points, each of which is connected with an RJ45 terminal cable, thus greatly reducing the time required to connect the system.

VERY EASY TO HANDLE: Monitoring systems using conventional measuring instruments and 12 cables connected to each three-phase measurement point are prone to wiring errors (phase sequence, voltage and current matching, direction of current transformers), resulting in incorrect electrical readings and loss of time in panel commissioning. The EASY BRANCH system, with its RJ45 connections to electronic current transformers, is completely safe!

PLAG & PLAY: EXS1 electronic transformers... and EXS3..., due to their ability to automatically recognize the current module to which they are connected, eliminates the need for the installer to configure the primary of the current transformer. EXS4000 Power supply, while a LED on EXS4000 current measuring module indicates the correct coupling.

PRRECISE: The EASY BRANCH system offers excellent measurement accuracy according to IEC/EN/BS 61557-12 and IEC/EN/BS 62053-22/23.

COMPACT: The small number of devices and cables used by the system provides major savings in panel space.

EASY BRANCH SYSTEM COMPONENTS

To better understand the efficiency of the EASY BRANCH system, let's compare it with a conventional solution in the form of a practical example. If you need to measure 5 three-phase loads in an electrical panel with the EASY BRANCH system, then you need: Only 1 power analyzer, 1 EXS0000 bus module, 1 EXS4000 current measurement module, 4 three-phase electronic transformers and only 12 cables to connect everything. With a conventional system, you'll need: 5 power analyzers, 15 current transformers, and 60 cables in total. The more measuring points you need, the greater the advantages of the EASY BRANCH system!

EXS0000 Expansion Module : They are used to connect and power up to 8 current EXS4 modules....

EXS4000 : Centralizes measurements of monitored loads with EXS3 electronic current transformers... (tri/single-phase) or EXS1... (single-phase). Each module can measure up to 4 three-phase loads, 12 single-phase loads, or a combination of the two;

EXS1 Electronic Current Transformers... and EXS3... : They are current transducers with a compact, modular design, which makes them ideal for the immediate downstream installation of thermomagnetic circuit breakers. Available for single-phase and three-phase loads, they connect to the EXS4000 current measurement module with a pre-wired RJ45 cable (2 m), thus ensuring a fast and secure connection.

EXS4001 : It offers the option of connecting metering points monitored with conventional current transformers to the EASY BRANCH system, with each module handling up to 2 three-phase loads, 6 single-phase loads, or a combination of the two.

All EASY BRANCH system data is available at the central network analyzer and, through its communications port, can also be viewed remotely in any browser (DMG8000 and DMG9000 only), using Synergy monitoring software on a local server or via Synergy Cloud, if the system includes the EXCGLA01 gateway data logger.

Thanks to the compatibility with LOVATO Electric's EXCGLA01 gateway data logger, a key component for a completely modern energy monitoring system, the data acquired by field devices or environmental sensors for any type of energy vector (water, air, gas, electricity or steam) running a compatible protocol, are not only made available by the integrated web server, but can also be transmitted to LOVATO Electric's Synergy surveillance software or forwarded to remote servers in appropriate formats for further processing.

The new generation of DMG power analyzers..., in combination with the EASY BRANCH system, is the result of a long research effort undertaken by LOVATO Electric to facilitate the work of the end user, while making the energy management process more efficient, modern and technological. The result is an innovative system at the forefront of modern technology, a true revolution in the field of energy monitoring.
