In addition to energy measurements the Electrex monitoring and control solutions also includes environmental parameters. One way to integrate these parameters is by adding to the same monitoring system one or more sensors from the one provided by. The sensors may be connected in an Rs485 network (Deca Sensor RS485 or RS485 Node Box SI with Sensor Bus); or via the wireless protocol E-Wifi 2.4 Ghz (based on the IEEE802.15 .4 standard) or E-Wi at 868MHz; or connected to the Ethernet / Wi-Fi via Electrex devices with built-in SI module (Net series and Libra panel with built-in SI module).
Depending on the type of connection / sensor used it is possible to measure one or more parameters such as: ambient temperature, temperature on contact (e.g. PV panels, in-out boiler’s water temperature), relative humidity, luminosity, pressure, differential pressure as well as count the impulses from energy, gas, water, etc. meters. The variety of sensors allow to set up applications for indoor/outdoor environmental parameters monitoring in the residential, commercial and industrial sectors. While in Energy Automation applications the sensors can be used for remote controlling, alarm and notification management and building automation.
