Revenue-grade performance
With high speed continuous sampling, data updates rate of 1 Hz and ANSI C12.20-2015 Class 0.2 revenue grade accuracy (depending on CT), the PowerScout 3 HD is well-suited for accountability metering in commercial, retail, and industrial facilities including demand response and tenant submetering.
Line or USB powered
PowerScout 3 HD instruments are line-powered with an internal wide-range power supply, allowing line-to-line voltages from 90 to 600 V AC. For convenience, the PS3HD also includes a USB (Type C) connector which allows the meter to be powered from a host PC or laptop computer during configuration.
Industry-standard modbus or bacnet
The PowerScout 3 HD supports both Modbus and BACnet communications protocols. Communications interface can be accomplished through serial RS-485 or Ethernet using either Modbus RTU, BACnet MS/TP, Modbus TCP, or BACnet IP protocols.
Quick setup
The PowerScout 3 HD can be configured using one of two interfaces: PC Application ViewPoint HD or Web Browser. Configurations can be saved to a template for re-use. Use the on-board LCD and thumb wheel to verify setup.
Powerful troubleshooting
The PowerScout 3 HD meter includes DENT’s patented* PhaseChek™ circuitry for identifying mis-phased and backwards CTs. When used in conjunction with ViewPoint HD, advanced analytics are available including waveform visualization, vector polar plotting and harmonic distortion analysis. DENTCloud submetering data analytics platform provides secure, subscription-free, real-time access to your energy data anywhere in the world.
