Slim - Line Din Rail Kwh Meter Tariff Charge Prepaid Electricity
Meters
The CA168-S is a single-phase 60A (80A optional) SABS approved
split meter in a DIN rail-mount housing. Ideal for new reticulation
where housing is informal and the prepayment meters are mounted in
a pole-top enclosure with respective customer interface units
conveniently mounted in the dwellings below. Due to the small size
and DIN rail housing, multiple Power-Rail meters can be mounted in
a small enclosure thereby making installation cost effective.It is
ideal for installation in Granny Flats, Individual Rented Units,
Shops, Stores and Sporting Facilities.
The meter consists of two parts: the Customer Interface Unit(CIU)
and the Meter. The Customer Interface Unit is a compact unit with
user-friendly display and keypad that can be installed in any
convenient location inside the consumer’s premises. Connection to
the remotely installed meter is via a pair of communications wires.
The meter contains all critical metering, number decryption and
load control functionality. It operates independently of the
customer interface unit and is immune to any form of tampering on
the customer interface.
The meter is usually installed in a secure, locked enclosure -
typically a pavement kiosk or pole-mounted equivalent. It is
outside the consumer’s premises to facilitate easy inspection by
the utility at any time, thus reducing the possibility of
tampering.
Major Features
1) Compact meter design, with DIN rail-mount layout for high
density stacking
2) Programmable operating mode - Energy Limiting Mode, Prepayment
or Credit metering
3) Programmable software power limit
4) Programmable monthly allocation of energy (MAE)
5) Significant Reverse Energy (SRE) detection
6) LED indicator of consumption and meter status
7) High surge withstand capability for areas prone to lightning or
other line surges
8) High temperature withstand capability
9) SABS 1524 and IEC 62052-11, IEC 62053-21 compliant
Benefits for Landlords and Property Managers
a) Easy to install and maintenance
b) Ensure that tenants are paying for electricity before consuming
it.
c) Easily resolve disputes on the amount of electricity consumed.
d) If rent is unpaid the owner can use the sale of recharge
vouchers as a bargaining tool and thuscreate an huge incentive for
the tenant to pay on time.
Benefits for Tenants:
1) Are able to monitor their consumption by checking the CIU and
adjusting their usage accordingly.
2) Can be sure that they are paying for the correct amount of
electricity they are using
