Energy Manager Starter Kit - More Information
The Energy Manager Starter Kit - £233.90 (inc. VAT - P&P)
• 1 x Smart Energy Controller Lite
• 1 x Smart Socket (plugin)
• 1 x Energy Manager Lite software
The Energy Manager Starter Kit is a basic introductory kit that allows an organisation or individual to start measuring their electricity usage on a PC. Data is collected every ten seconds by the plugin Smart Socket and displayed using the Energy Manager Lite software, which shows how much electricity is being consumed and the cost.
The Smart Socket can be used with a range of electrical equipment - such as PCs, photocopiers, printers and vending machines. Comparisons can quickly be drawn to see which devices are using the most energy, and to identify where savings might be made, either through behavioural change (such as not leaving devices on standby overnight) or by purchasing more energy-efficient devices in the future.
The system is very quick and simple to set up - simply plug in the Energy Controller and it will automatically detect the Smart Socket as soon as it is in use. Once you have installed the Energy Manager Lite software, you will just need to enter the registration number from either the Energy Controller or the Smart Socket and it will begin to display readings.
The kit can be easily extended by adding further products from our range - such as additional Smart Sockets, a Channel Smart meter (which will allow you to take measurements from your fuse box - so that you can measure the power usage of the air-conditioning or lighting for example), or upgrade the software to gain extra features (such as the ability to create customised PDF reports at the touch of a button).
Features:
• A simple, wireless energy monitoring system suitable for any organisation or individual wishing to measure the energy consumption of their electrical devices.
• Energy Manager Lite's easy-to-read graph reporting shows you how much energy and CO2 is being used, and the cost of that energy, in real-time or over a selected time period.
• See the power used by different pieces of equipment simply by plugging an electrical device into the Smart Socket.
• Simple to extend - add as many Smart Sockets as you need. It is also fully compatible with the other products in the range.
