SNAP-AIPM analog input module by Opto-22 helps you measure and control power usage in your facility. The SNAP-AIPM module simultaneously measures single-phase volts AC RMS and amps AC RMS and calculates true power and volt-amps. Leading or lagging power factor can then be calculated from true power and volt-amp values.
Part of the SNAP PAC System, the module mounts on a SNAP PAC rack with a SNAP PAC brain or rack-mounted controller. Analog, digital, and serial I/O modules can all be on the same rack. Such an I/O unit is also well suited for PC-based control or for use as intelligent remote I/O for an Allen-Bradley RSLogix PLC system, such as ControlLogix, MicroLogix, or CompactLogix.
When these modules are used as part of a SNAP PAC System running a PAC Control strategy, the strategy logic can automatically perform the calculations and respond to problems.
Compatibility: SNAP-AIPM modules work with SNAP PAC brains and R-series controllers. They also work with legacy SNAP Ethernet-based brains.
NOTE: If you need to monitor 3-phase power, see the SNAP-AIPM-3 and the SNAP-AIPM-3V.
Build your system in the SNAP I/O Configurator.
