The SaiaALD1 is a new, monophase energy meter up to 32 A, with a 17.5 mm mounting width and an LCD display. Alongside the classical energy value, other values can also be displayed, such as current, power and voltage. It combines maximum functionality with high quality attributes of reliability, durability and stability in high precision measurement (class B according to EN 50 470-3, class 1 according to IEC 62 053-21). All Saia energy meters have been developed and manufactured in accordance with the European measuring instrument directive (MID). Meters are calibrated directly in the factory and can be put to use immediately in applications to calculate energy costs.
Approval authorities periodically check the systematic quality of manufacturing and final inspection in the Swiss manufacturer’s production facility. This means that individual tests on devices supplied can be dispensed with completely.
The life cycle and electrical reliability of this measuring device are fully oriented to industrial requirements. Saia-Burgess has been a manufacturer of industrial electronics for 30 years and every year produces over half a million small devices in its factory in Switzerland.
With its energy meters in particular, Saia-Burgess has very high growth rates and has probably become one of Europe’s largest manufacturers. The success factor here has again been its strength in technical innovation. For example, all LCD energy meters have been consistently designed for serial bus operation. The classical SO pulse interface is, of course, always on board and can be configured over a large range.
