PRO2-Mod 0.25–100A ModBus MID – single-phase power monitoring

MID-certified energy meter for single-phase power monitoring

The HW group PRO2-Mod 0.25-100A ModBus MID is a single-phase energy meter with RS485 Modbus interface. The PRO2 displays numerous instantaneous values such as voltage, current, active power, reactive power, apparent power, frequency and power factor on the LCD display and also provides them via Modbus. The PRO2-Mod complies with the Measuring Instruments Directive 2014/32/EU (MID). This MID approval confirms the accuracy and quality of the meter and enables its use for billing purposes.

The meter measures directly and combines a high accuracy class (1/B) for active energy measurement with a wide temperature range for reliable use in different environments.

Precise measurement with Modbus connectivity

The PRO2-Mod is designed for direct measurement of single-phase circuits up to 100 A.

✅

MID-certified

The meter complies with the Measuring Instruments Directive 2014/32/EU and is therefore suitable for use for billing purposes.

🎯

High accuracy class

The PRO2-Mod offers a high accuracy class (1/B) for active energy measurement.

🔌

Direct measurement up to 100 A

The meter measures the current in the single-phase 230 V network directly, without an external current transformer.

📶

RS485 Modbus interface

Via the integrated RS485 interface, the measured values can be read out using Modbus RTU and the meter can be configured.

📟

LCD display with instantaneous values

Voltage, current, active, reactive and apparent power, frequency and power factor are displayed directly on the device.

How the PRO2-Mod is designed

The housing of the PRO2-Mod is designed for mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail and is connected via screw terminals.

1

Connection terminals for the power circuit

Terminals 1 (phase in) and 3 (phase out) as well as 4 (neutral in) and 6 (neutral out) route the circuit to be measured through the meter. The current is measured directly.

2

RS485 Modbus connection

Via terminals 10 and 11 (A/B), the meter is connected via the RS485 bus to a Modbus RTU master system, through which the measured values can be read out and settings can be made.

3

S0 pulse outputs

Terminals 18/19 (forward) and 20/21 (reverse) provide potential-free S0 pulse outputs, via which energy consumption can be read out proportionally as a pulse sequence, e.g. for testing or remote reading purposes.

4

LCD display and control buttons

On the front, a multi-line LCD display shows the meter readings and instantaneous values. Using two buttons, you can scroll through the display pages and configure the meter directly on the device (e.g. scroll time, backlight, Modbus ID).

5

Infrared interface

In addition, the meter has an infrared interface according to IEC62056-21 (IEC1107), via which it can be read out and programmed with an optical IR reading head and the associated PC software.

6

Red status LED

A red LED on the front indicates the energy flow: it flashes proportionally to the measured power and thus serves as a quick visual check of whether and how much energy is flowing.

Extensive measurement and configuration functions

In addition to pure energy measurement, the PRO2-Mod offers further useful functions that can be set directly on the device or via Modbus.

Automatic scroll

The display automatically switches between the programmed display pages; the scroll time can be set individually.

Combination code

The total energy can optionally be calculated and displayed from forward, reverse or a combination of both energy directions.

Resettable daily counter

An additional user-resettable meter reading allows simple recording of consumption over a specific period.

Password protection

The advanced configuration mode is protected by a four-digit password to prevent unauthorized changes.

OBIS codes

Optionally, the measured values on the display can be labeled with OBIS codes.

Power failure counter

A power-down counter records how often the meter was without voltage.

Practical application examples

  • Billing-capable energy measurement in buildings
  • Sub-metering of individual circuits or rental units
  • Energy monitoring in commercial and industrial operations

Commissioning in a few steps

Installation and connection may only be carried out by qualified specialist personnel.

  1. Mount the meter de-energized on a 35 mm DIN rail
  2. Connect phase and neutral conductors according to the connection diagram to terminals 1, 3, 4 and 6
  3. Connect the RS485 bus to the Modbus master system at terminals 10/11
  4. If required, connect the S0 pulse outputs at terminals 18/19 or 20/21
  5. Configure Modbus ID, baud rate and other settings via the front buttons or the Modbus registers
  6. Reattach the protective covers and seal the meter after testing
