Usage example

Usage example

• Remote equipment monitoring

Monitoring of A/C, UPS, security system status (status relays)

• Energy consumption monitoring

Counting of pulses from electricity / water / gas meters. Conversion to price using HWg-PDMS in MS Excel.

• Alarm alerts

Turning on a warning light or a horn upon alarm at another unit (over the network, Box-2-Box mode)

• UPS and back-up generator monitoring

Fuel level, diesel generator status, remote start over IP

• Security systems
  • IP surveillance systems (external sensors)
  • Equipment status, access control systems
• SCADA: Connection of external inputs to multiple independent systems

Energy consumption metering and export to MS Excel

Digital inputs on the Damocles unit support pulse counting. Each DI (Digital Input) is equipped with a 32-bit pulse counter, minimum pulse width is 50 ms. Current count can be checked over the web interface. Damocles can transfer your monthly electricity consumption in kWh from your electricity meter to MS Excel.

• Use an electricity meter with pulse outuput (e.g. 100 pulses/kWh per IEC 62053-1 (S0) standard)
• Connect the pulses to Damocles DI
• Connect the input to HWg-PDMS, set the coefficient (100 pulses/kWh) in detailed configuration
• HWg-PDMS generates an overview of energy consumption over a given period, either automatically or on-demand
• Set a price per kWh and charge your customers

Box-2-Box mode

Box-2-Box mode lets you use a Damocles unit as remote outputs. Outputs of the Damocles unit signal the OK or Alarm states of sensors and inputs at other devices. Any Poseidon, Damocles or HWg-WLD device can activate the outputs of a Damocles 1208 unit over the network. This feature does not require any software.

• High temperature at the air conditioning outlet (Poseidon 3262) turns on a warning light in the IT department in another building (Damocles digital output).
• 7 water leak detectors laid out in one floor of an office building control outputs O1 through O7 over IP. All outputs control a warning light and a horn. In case of flooding, the horn sounds, and the indication of output states on the Damocles 1208 unit informs the operator about the exact zone.
