Automatic demand manager

Maxchek 400 is a smart maximum demand controller with standard size 96x96 mm specifically designed for industries to keep a check on their maximum demand. It gives an alarm when demand approaches a preset value and also switches off non-essential loads in a pre-programmed logical sequence. This predictive maximum demand controller (MDC) allows stage wise load restoration to maximize the use of a sanctioned load. Maxchek 400 is most suitable for the demand control of industrial consumers, HT consumers and commercial establishments. It also support ethernet module for communication.

Application

  • Commercial and industrial sanctioned demand monitoring & controlling applications
  • Control panels for complete plant demand controlling
  • Demand management for commerce and industry

Benefits

  • Easy interface with external devices through built-in Modbus (RS-485)
  • Detachable connectors for easy installation
  • Three relay and one alarm output
  • Suitable for star or delta connections and for low or high-voltage applications
  • Alarm output for audible indication.
  • Field-configurable CT/PT primary and secondary values using push-buttons
  • Calibration LED for on-site accuracy check
  • Configurable software (ConfigView) for reading of parameters and load survey
  • Shift wise demand configuration

Features

  • Two modes of programming - preventive mode (only alarm no control), predictive mode (alarm and automatic control)
  • Predictive demand control to forewarn, take corrective measures and check maximum demand crossovers
  • Multi-level (phase wise and shift wise) priority based automatic load control mechanism to disconnect lowpriority loads in phased manner
  • Configurable demand integration period for sliding and fixed type
  • Optimised load disconnection time
  • Online load planning by continuously indicating loads that can be added or need to be disconnected (within safe operating limits)
  • Check meter with accuracy class 0.2s,0.5s and 1.0
  • Auto and push button display
  • An user friendly software to program and monitor
  • Control outputs for alarm and trip applications - it provides 3 control and one alarm outputs, in the form of potential free contacts
  • Large four-line seven-digit display (9.7 H x 5 W mm) with quadrant identification section and bar graph for instantaneous power-level indication
  • Ethernet gateway module for easy integration
