CVM-B100 and CVM-B150 Power Analyzers
CIRCUTOR CVM-B100 and CVM-B150 are panel-mounted three-phase power analyzers for medium-voltage and low-voltage electrical installations. They provide 4-quadrant measurement for both consumption and generation monitoring.
The CVM-B100 is supplied in a compact 96 x 96 mm format, while the CVM-B150 uses a larger 144 x 144 mm format. Both models support a wide range of electrical parameters, communications, alarms and optional expansion modules.
Overview: Flexible Power Monitoring for Electrical Panels
CVM-B100 and CVM-B150 are high-performance power analyzers designed for the control and monitoring of electrical installations. They measure a comprehensive range of electrical variables and support multiple wiring configurations, including 3-wire and 4-wire three-phase circuits, two-phase circuits, single-phase circuits and ARON connections.
The analyzers are suitable for both consumption and generation monitoring because of their 4-quadrant measurement capability. This makes them useful for industrial electrical panels, main distribution boards, substations, generator panels, solar integration panels and energy management applications.
Key positioning
CVM-B100 and CVM-B150 are ideal where a panel-mounted meter must go beyond basic kWh metering and provide real electrical visibility, alarms, tariff handling, communication and expansion capability.
