The DMTME series instruments are digital

multimeters that allow the measurement
in TRMS mode of the principal electrical
parameters in three-phase 230/400 VAC
networks, including the max./min./average
detection of the main electrical parameters and
the active and reactive energy metering.
The different measured variables are displayed
locally on four red LED displays providing easy
readability and simultaneous display of multiple
measures.
The DMTME multimeters combine in a single
instrument the functions of a voltmeter,
ammeter, power-factor meter, wattmeter,
varmeter, frequency meter, active and reactive
energy meters, allowing remarkable financial
savings thanks to the reduction of space
required for the panels and also of time required
for cabling.
The DMTME-I-485-96 model is also fitted with
an impulse connection and RS485 port for the
communication of the parameters measured by
Modbus network.
All the versions are supplied with a mini CD
containing instruction manuals, technical
documentation, communication protocol and
DMTME-SW software.

Innovative performances

DMTME-SW communication software

The automatic detection of verse of insertion

of CTs makes the instrument installation easier
and error-proof.
The time meter for programmed maintenance
and the visualization of the instrument life
time helps the installer in performing routine
operations.

The DMTME-SW software allows to obtain in real

time and display in a single window all the readings
of a DMTME multimeter or DMTME multimeter
network. Measurements are displayed both in
analogue format and in digital format.
DMTME-SW is also a simple test instrument
for the Modbus communication that allows the
installer to check the proper functionality of the
network before the system integrator performs
the test.
115/230 VAC auxiliary power supply on all
the models, with pull-out terminals.
