OpenWay® CENTRON Meter

Brand: Itron
Request Information
Favorite

A key component of any advanced metering or smart grid initiative, the OpenWay CENTRON meter is a truly smart device used to collect, process and transmit vital energy information to utility systems.

Rather than simply inserting a network communication card into a standard meter, Itron developed an advanced meter where calculations and usage data are calculated within the meter itself, allowing utilities to leverage time-based rates, demand response, home networking and many other smart grid applications.
Features
  • Electronic LCD display 
  • Polycarbonate cover 
  • Optical tower 
  • Test LED
Time-of-Use and Critical Peak Pricing
  • The OpenWay CENTRON supports four TOU rates as well as CPP
  • TOU registers may be displayed on the meter’s display
Load Profile
  • Four channels of configurable load profile data are available in the following default parameters: 
    • single channel 30-minute data 753 days
    • two channels 30-minute data 501 days
  • Modified parameters are available via configuration download
  • The OpenWay CENTRON module provides over one year of 15-minute load profile data storage
OpenWay RFLAN Module
  • Two-way, unlicensed RF module
  • Adaptive-tree RFLAN architecture provides easy installation and self-healing capabilities
Home Area Network (HAN)
  • Every OpenWay CENTRON meter includes a ZigBee radio for interfacing with the HAN, in-home displays and load control devices
  • The OpenWay CENTRON can store consumption from 2.4GZ OpenWay gas modules utilizing the ZigBee radio
Bi-Directional Metering
  • The OpenWay CENTRON measures and displays active energy (kWh) delivered, received, uni-directional and/or net or apparent energy (kVAh) delivered and/or received
Disconnect/Reconnect with Load Limiting
  • The OpenWay CENTRON forms 1S, 2S, 12S network, and 25S is available with a 200 amp remote disconnect/reconnect switch as an optional feature. The switch can be operated on demand, or automatically as part of a service-limiting configuration
Tamper Detection
  • Tamper indications can be communicated regularly through the OpenWay system
  • Tampers include: inversion, removal and reverse power flow
  • SiteScan Diagnostics (advanced polyphase register only)
Non-Volatile Memory
  • All programming, register, TOU and load profi le data are stored in the EEPROM during a power outage. A battery maintains just the clock circuitry during a power outage
Voltage Monitoring
  • Instantaneous voltage
  • Voltage monitoring system
