The Shark 200 is a panel meter that measures voltage, current, active, reactive and apparent power, energy, power factor, frequency and demand, with certified accuracy: ANSI C12.20 class 0.2 and IEC 62053-22 class 0.2S. Sampling runs at over 400 samples per cycle on every channel at once, and the same meter also records power quality, harmonics and waveforms.
Advantages
Revenue-grade measurement
ANSI C12.20 class 0.2 and IEC 62053-22 class 0.2S accuracy, with a standard energy test pulse for field verification.
Complete data logging
Three historical logs with 64+ parameters each, up to 4 MB of memory, and time-stamped logs for events, alarms and I/O changes.
Power quality and waveform capture
Harmonics to the 40th order, waveform capture up to 512 samples per cycle, and CBEMA and SEMI F47 curves for voltage events.
Expandable communication and I/O
RS485, IrDA and KYZ pulse as standard; two automatically detected I/O slots and optional Ethernet cards with Modbus TCP/IP, DNP3 or IEC 61850.
V-Switch key technology
Keys V1 to V6 are activated in the field without taking the meter out of service, adding logging, harmonics, limits and waveform recording.
Applications
- Utility, commercial, industrial and campus metering, and submetering.
- Substation telemetry: voltage and frequency recording, and monitoring of transformers and line regulators.
- Interval load profiling and power quality studies.
- Direct replacement of analogue panel meters, reusing the existing CT and PT wiring.
About the product
The meter fits a 92 mm DIN square or ANSI C39.1 4-inch round cut-out, with only 4 inches of panel depth, which suits retrofits of existing switchgear. A transducer version without a display is also available, mounted on DIN rail, with an RS485 Modbus or DNP3 output and the same expandable I/O. The design is built for harsh environments, with short-circuit safe current inputs, and is powered by (90-265) V AC or (100-370) V DC, or by (18-60) V DC.
