Current energy consumption at a glance: Thanks to the simple LED ring, seamlessly integrated into the housing, you can easily see the current energy demand of the connected device. The color of the LED ring ranges from deep green to red, changing according to energy consumption. Green indicates low consumption, while red signals high energy demand.

Consumption analysis in your preferred file format: You can easily and conveniently convert the energy consumption data into various Office and Google formats in the form of graphs. Whether you want to analyze days, weeks, months, or years, it’s all possible.

Your smartphone becomes a remote control: Turn the VOLTCRAFT SEM6000 CH on and off effortlessly using your smartphone or tablet. This way, it not only serves as an energy cost meter but also transforms your device into a remote control.

Automated switching of connected devices: Do you want your lighting to automatically turn on at 8 PM and off again at 6 AM? No problem. Program the switching times conveniently through your smartphone or tablet. You can program a total of 12 switching times (either on or off) for the SEM6000 CH. Each switching time can be set as a one-time event or with repetition (selecting the weekdays on which the switching time will repeat).

Special features: Bluetooth interface, data export, data logger function, cost forecast, adjustable electricity tariff, app control.

9. Eltako Alternating current meter

Energy consumption display with screen - smart metering for DIN rail. Standby loss is only 0.5 watts. The energy consumption display measures active energy like an AC meter based on the current flowing between the input and output, and stores the consumption in non-volatile memory. Like all meters without MID compliance declaration in Europe, it is not approved for monetary electricity billing. The accuracy corresponds to that of all Eltako AC meters of class B according to MID (1%), with a starting current of 20 mA. This allows the energy consumption display to accurately replicate the measurement of the meter installed elsewhere in the building for electricity billing. The display screen is divided into three fields. Total reset: To start storing the values with hourly precision, a total reset is recommended at a convenient time after installation. To do this, press and hold the Mode and Select buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds until RES appears in field 1.
