Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Power calulation of 3-phase model

Hi folks,

i am new at the forum and one really important question i never found here - reason is that we have an equipment of about 40KW installed and about 100.000KWh power consumption per year and i would like to check out our Limits that the environment is able to deliver with given fuses of 3x80A. Ok, it's the other way to use a flukso, but it is a new point of view maybe.

What is the fundamental mode to calculate power consumption of 3-phase model flukso's?

a) Phase by Phase which means:
Displ.power=current1(A)x230V + current2(A)x230V + current3(A)x230V

Disconnections / Not uploading graphs

Hey,

I've noticed from time to time that data isn't uploaded anymore.
A reboot of the meter helps, but of course, all data that wasn't uploaded is lost.

Last weekend, i've did some tests, and saw that when you simple remove the antenna, and put it back, it works again. So this without losing the data.

I've put the antenna now in direct line with the access point. Distance is about 10m...
Maybe it was an interference with the electrical cables?

240V vs 230V

How do you determine if a Flukso is connected to a 240V or 230V supply? This affects the accuracy of the power measurements.

Installation problems

Hi peoples,

I bought a unit from David Rowe who got it to me quickly . So quickly that it seems you dont have instructions on how to get this thing to work!

1. Where are the installation instructions and videos that are suppose to be on the website? I can't find them. The link only gives the same info on the box.

Output from the sensor board

Hi
What does the sensor board output via the two wires. Is it analog voltage? The reason - I'm exploring ways to interface the Fluksometer to an Elk M1 security/automation system.
I suppose I could also use the new JSON/REST API to get the data, but the above would be more direct. Comments appreciated.
Thanks.
