ION 7500 and ION 7600 Meters
The ION 7500 and ION 7600 are intelligent metering and control devices suited to
a wide range of applications. The meters can be used as stand-alone devices, but
their extensive capabilities are fully realized when used with ION software, as part
of an enterprise energy management (EEM) system.
EEM systems give energy suppliers, service providers, and large industrial and
commercial energy consumers the tools to meet all the challenges and
opportunities of the new energy environment. EEM systems use real-time
information and control to directly address a broad range of requirements
throughout the power delivery chain and across an entire enterprise. These
systems offer an integrated solution to managing new billing structures,
distributed generation, energy purchasing, energy cost control, operational
efficiency, and power quality and reliability.
ION technology uniquely delivers the benefits of enterprise energy management
through an efficient, economical, and scalable architecture using web-enabled
software and intelligent metering and control devices. ION systems place
intelligence everywhere it’s needed, delivering information and control to
everyone that needs it, wherever they are. This gives all parties the necessary
information to make the best energy decisions, and the control to act on them.
Systems can span widely dispersed geographic locations and multiple points
within each site. A single, shared system delivers a broad range of functionality
that can satisfy the needs of many different groups within an enterprise, while
integrating seamlessly with existing systems.
