Do you want to achieve cost allocation using Profibus? Carlo Gavazzi has the solution!

In a large automated industrial plant, the most important processes are completely managed by PLCs and field devices, transferring data to each other via the ProfiBus DPV0.

To correctly allocate energy costs to each production batch or machine/ process, energy information is necessary, correlated to the number of items produced with that amount of energy.

The best solution would be to have a metering device able to provide energy data to the same automation bus.

The WM20 smart power analyzer from Carlo Gavazzi can be equipped with the ProfiBus communication module and can be connected to the same network which manages the automation process.

The WM20 and Profibus module are very flexible, and the Profibus master can decide run-time which variable profiles need to be requested, how many variables or remotely activate/ deactivate the WM20 optional digital outputs.

The WM20's large, clear and easy to use display also provides all the necessary information to the operators.
