Outline
This presentation will focus on the PM8ECC Ethernet communication
card for PM800 series power meters
Introduction
Benefits
The New Powerful PM8ECC Option Module
Schneider Electric has developed an option module that will enable
PM800 series meters to act not only as a power quality meter, but
as a serial to gateway with webserver capabilities.
Schneider Electric
Clean and efficient solution due to space constraint
No extra gateway or power supply needed. IP based meter which
allows easy integration into existing Ethernet infrastructure and
management
Easy access to the PM8ECC information by simply typing the IP
address into the web browser
Easy retrofit ability for existing PM800 series meter
infrastructure
Give users the ability to enhance their existing energy monitoring
system network from serial to Ethernet
Schneider Electric

Industrial Application:
A customer would like to monitor remotely a motor’s energy
consumption with SAG and SWELL. They have invested in a large
Ethernet backbone and would like to monitor through this network
and have multiple users
Solution: Purchase PM870 and PM8ECC
PM870 is equipped with SAG/SWELL capabilities
PM8ECC enables the meter to be viewed directly on Ethernet
network
