Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG receives award in FranceCENTRAX CU named as innovative product

(Paris, September 2018) The leading French tech-nical magazine MESURES awarded Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG a prize for innovation. The award ceremony is the closing event of the annual TECH-NOLOGICAL RANKING in Paris, held in the offices of the FIEEC (Federation of Electrical, Electronic and Communication Industries). Grouped in differ-ent categories, each of the innovative products was judged based on its technical features.

In 2018, the products nominated were again from well-known companies. In nine different categories, industrial analysis, industrial data processing, con-trol and regulation, etc. prizes were awarded to products which were judged as being particularly innovative. In the Electrical and Electronic Instru-ments category, Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG won a prize. The product CENTRAX CU3000/5000 was named as worthy of special mention and picked out for the cherished trophy. In his speech of thanks, Sascha Engel, CEO of Camille Bauer Metrawatt AG explained why they had chosen to present this product. Combining the highly-precise measure-ment of electrical values directly with a PLC maximizes the added-value for the customer in terms of flexibility, efficiency and cost optimisation.

Technical innovationThe CENTRAX CU can be installed in decentral-ised as well as centralised energy automation ap-plications. The measurement part of the instrument is capable of detecting more than 1500 measure-ment parameters to determine the status of the mains supply, energy consumption and mains quality. In the integrated PLC, this data is directly processed via CODESYS, both logically and al-gorithmically, without requiring any additional equipment. External field devices for measuring any other values are no problem for the CENTRAX CU series. The CENTRAX CU ADVANCED, sig-nals are captured using the Modbus Master feature and linked to the PLC environment. In addition the CENTRAX CU PROFESSIONAL is the most im-

pressive version. It not only captures and processes measurement data but also supports user-spe-cific visualisation of the data via a web-based interface. This is displayed either directly on the integ-rated LCD, or in a web browser on the screen of a PC, tablet or even a smartphone. Also newly avail -able is an IEC61850 interface, so the device can be used for even more applications. As well as clas -sical measurement tasks and performing the related calculations, the CENTRAX CU series can also be used as a summator or a gateway. It is thus a universal device, compliant with defined standards and with a very high degree of utilisation.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the development and marketing of the CENTRAX CU which as this award proves, is held in high regard.

The French technical magazine MESURES awarded a prize to the CENTRAX CU in the category for electrical and electronic instruments
