The WM15 is used to manage and control energy consumption, main electrical variables and harmonic distortion and now includes a lasered secondary address on the front panel for unique identification aiding fast commissioning and troubleshooting on the entire system.

The intuitive setup and navigation ensure
an easy-to-install meter, whilst the wizard and wiring check on first start-up provides a quick, guided and error-free installation and commissioning via the free UCS software.

All measurements are displayed on the easy-to-read backlit matrix LCD, in both digits and bar graph format. Its front panel
uses a simplified 4 push-button user interface, for easier switching between pages, and fast scrolling through the readout.

The WM15’s self-power supply and phase sequence detection provide error-proof installation as well as various interfacing capabilities such as digital output for pulse transmission or alarm, optional
RS485 Modbus RTU (100ms data refresh) and continuous sampling of each voltage and current.

The onboard optical port provides fast, easy and remote programming for mass production of electrical panels via the Optoprog battery-powered device. The embedded Bluetooth 4.0 communication allows the user to connect a
Smartphone (via UCS Mobile Android APP) or a PC (via UCS Desktop software) to the meter, allowing fast and easy configuration.

As with other Carlo Gavazzi energy products, the WM15 power analyser conforms to Class 1 European accuracy standards EN62053-21, EN 62053-23 and EN50470-3 (Class B), and is CE and cUL certified.
