AMETEK RECEIVED INDUSTRY CANADA CERTIFICATION FOR Ci20 ELECTRICITY METER


Latest Multi-Function Meter from AMETEK Power Instruments Brings High-End Performance to Commercial and Industrial Users


Dec 15, 2005


ROCHESTER, NY—AMETEK Power Instruments—a recognized leader with Scientific Columbus revenue meters -- has received Industry Canada Certification for the Ci20 multi-function revenue meter.  The Ci20 revenue meter is an affordable solid-state device designed specifically for high end commercial and industrial power users. AMETEK product manager Steve Bleier says ‘The Ci20 has many advantages for the Canadian market in support of the Smart Meter Initiative, including high-accuracy measurements, site monitoring, and multiple communications options to ensure maximum reliability.’


It provides an impressive 0.15% accuracy on watt-hours. Per phase and system measurements are available for all energy and instantaneous readings. The meter is equipped with dual communication outputs using Serial, Modem or Ethernet ports.  Support is provided for DNP, Modbus, ANSI Tables and MV90.


Through its installation verification mode, the CI20 presents the phase vectors on the large LCD graphic display. Once installed, the energy management functions continuously check operating conditions against pre-set thresholds with alarms triggered for local and remote notifications.  The meter is able to phone any number for quick notification of power outages.


Simple to use, yet powerful in its capabilities, the CI20 meter bridges the gap between high-accuracy, multi-function meters with expensive price tags and more basic meters. Backed by AMETEK’s well-established reputation as a leader in electric power instrumentation, the CI20 meter offers the most-cost effective metering solution for commercial and industrial electric power users.


AMETEK Power Instruments is a unit of AMETEK, Inc., a leading manufacturer of electronic instruments and electric motors with annualized sales of more than $1.2 billion. For more information, contact AMETEK Power Instruments, 255 North Union Street, Rochester, New York 14605
