Cost-effective Solutions RECtrack™ 3 is the optimal kit if you need a cost effective solution for monitoring and

management of a PV-system. With RECtrack 3 you get all the necessary components

and functions to monitor energy production and demand at a fraction of the cost of a

traditional supervision system.

The RECtrack™ kit comes with one energy meter and one Internet Gateway / Data

Logger. More meters can be purchased separately and connected via the Modbus

Network. The Internet Gateway collects data and uploads them regularly, over the

Internet, to the Energy Recommerce Information Server. Users, log in to their ac-

count on MYPVDATA® to access information and manage their system from a web

browser. The server provides, not only to real-time and historical data, but also

alarming, reports, rates analysis, logbooks, billing and more.

Simplified System Design The monitoring kit is developed with energy monitoring in mind and therefore the

system design is very straightforward. Supporting application examples and CAD

schematics helps reduce engineering cost.

Easy to Install and Manage Designed to facilitate quick installation. Remote configuration capabilities minimize

truck rolls. A fully integrated and tested monitoring kit that minimizes errors.

Protocols fully support the http standard and our solution makes it easy to install the
