Key benefits of energy metering
Reduce energy costs
● Reduce carbon footprint
● Wireless system
● Low power radio or SMS
● Easy installation
● Combatable with standard Hanwell sensors
● Detailed analysis of usage and costs
●
You’re switching off your PCs when not in use. You
use motion detectors to control the lighting in the
offices. The thermostats have been turned down a
degree. How else can you improve energy efficiency?
Efficiency is becoming an economic as well as an
environmental necessity. A monitoring system,
logging energy usage over time and allowing
statistical analysis of kilowatts consumed, can quickly
identify ‘hidden’ excesses, resulting in significant
savings within weeks of installation. The data can then
be used to provide logged records as evidence of
sustained energy reduction over time.
Hanwell offer a variety of options for monitoring - via radio the energy use of a site. Radio telemetry requires no
additional wiring to be installed. The proven radio technology
used by Hanwell has been in use for over a decade, reliably
monitoring the environmental conditions of warehouses,
distribution bases, laboratories and production lines in the
pharmaceutical, food preparation and aeronautical industries.
Current Monitoring
Elmo radio transmitters, fitted with either a one or
To manage your energy it needs to be monitored
three phase current monitoring sensor, are clamped to
the mains power cables. These transmit the readings
back to an Ethernet enabled receiver (the NRG Network Radio Gateway) which is connected to a LAN
or WAN. The NRG is interrogated for the data by the
Radiolog software and the data filed on a server. Both
live and logged data can be viewed not only on site
but at different offices via the internal LAN or external
WAN.
Multiple NRGs can be included on a single system,
allowing data to be collected from multiple sites
simultaneously. This system provides a quick and
simple overview of energy use based on instantaneous
current metering. More detailed data can be collected
using the Utility Meter Monitoring option.
Utility Meter Monitoring
This uses the Elmo radio transmitters connected to the
output(s) of the utility meter. The units measure and
transmit the cumulative number of pulses output by
the meter back to the NRG where the data is collected.
The data is then collected and displayed via the
software. There are two types of Utility Meter at
present:
• 1 channel, for use with electricity, gas and water
meters
• 2 channel, for use with electricity meters which send
2 channels of data and a synch pulse
This system provides a detailed analysis of the
metered usage of utilities and can be used to produce
refined energy management strategy.

There is now an option to manage your energy
consumption rather than accept it as a fixed cost that
you have no control over. You need to monitor your
energy consumption but don’t want the hassle and
expense of wire installation across your site?
Elmo will help you diagnose and eliminate areas of
wasted energy reducing cost through accurate reports
and trends directly from the data it collects.
