IMS 3000R Series Meter with Outdoor Weatherproof Enclosure




*Available Summer 2010
The IMS 3000 Series Meter with outdoor plastic enclosure (NEMA 4X rated) offers more features and functionality than anything ever manufactured by IMS Meters. This revenue-grade meter can be built with a 1, 2 or 3-Phase configuration.
Incorporating the latest technology and our decades of energy meter design and manufacturing experience, these products will be suitable for a number of energy monitoring, management, and billing applications. As always, these products come with the IMS ten-year warranty.
The IMS 3000 Series measures kWh, Demand, Instantaneous power, volts, amps, watts, VAR, and VA per phase. These meters conform to all applicable standards of ANSI C12.1 and ANSI C12.20 (0.5) Codes for Electricity Metering. Equipped with an RS-485 two-way serial data port that supports optional IP module, Modbus and BACnet protocols, and thus can be tied in to most building and energy management systems. It provides time-stamped and data logged meter readings, which are displayed at the meter and can be accessed remotely via the serial port. An onboard real time clock is battery backed up in the event of a power failure, and can be synchronized remotely.
IMS recommends solid core transformers (CT’s) for revenue grade billing. Our 100A & 200A color coded CT’s (to the right) assist with correct installation by indicating phase monitored. Split core CT’s (to the right) are also available upon request for applications where power cannot interrupted during installation. Our 100A, 200A, and 400A split core models offer a 1% accuracy.

For 1 or 2 phase Series 3000 electrical
specifications:
1 Accuracy based on IMS solid core transformers (included), with 100 mA secondary output. Meter input burden resistance at 2 Ohms.
2 Pollution Degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
For 3 phase Series 3000 electrical specifications:
1 Accuracy based on IMS solid core transformers (included), with 100 mA secondary output. Meter input burden resistance at 2 Ohms.
2 Pollution Degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
