ACM20 Series www.murata-ps.com Four-Function AC Power Meters PRODUCT OVERVIEW Actual size C Murata Power Solutions’ ACM20 series AC power meters display the most critical measurements in mains-powered equipment: voltage, amperage, active power (watts), and power factor. A front panel selector-switch provides two modes of operation: a fixed reading of any of the four parameters, or a continuous cycling through all four measurements. An optional model displays line frequency with 0.1Hz resolution. All ACM20 multi-function power meters include built-in current transformers—no other user-supplied components are required. ACM20 series AC power meters are available in a choice of two input ranges: 0-32A (with 0.01A resolution, 9999 watts max.); 0-100A (0.1A resolution, 26.4kW max.). An 85-264Vac (47-63Hz) operating supply range makes these power meters perfect for worldwide power monitoring applications. And, unlike conventional, average-responding products, ACM20 power meters can accurately display the true-rms voltage and current values of triangle waves, square waves, and other irregularly shaped waveforms, with an accuracy of ±1% of full scale. Their large (0.36"/9.2mm), bright red LED display makes ACM20 AC power meters easily readable from as far as 15 feet (5 meters). All units are packaged in a one-piece, vibration resistant, polycarbonate housing that can be installed in vertical ‘0U’ and ‘1U’ rack spaces. Their miniature size is perfect for UPS power sources, power strips, laboratory instrumentation, alternative energy applications, and any other products that require precise monitoring of AC power.

To ensure safe and reliable operation, ACM20 power meters must be installed and serviced by qualified technical personnel. Contact Murata Power Solutions if there is any doubt regarding their installation or operation. 1. Measurement Type: ACM20 series multi-function AC power meters employ a precision energy metering integrated circuit and a lowpower microcontroller to measure and display the rms voltage and current, active(real) power, power factor (or line frequency on ‘–F’ suffix models) of ac mains supplies from 47-63Hz. Please note, ACM20 power meters use the voltage present at their TB1 terminal block and the secondary current of their built-in current transformer L1 to calculate and then display VOLTS, WATTS, power factor (PF), or line frequency on ‘-F’ HERTZ models. 2. Basic Operation: Upon application of ac power to TB1, the unit will first perform a self-test routine and then continuously display ac volts with the VOLTS LED annunciator illuminated. The display will remain in the VOLTS mode as long as the front panel 'SEL' button is not touched. Power Supply Terminal Block Wire Size 16-22AWG, solid or stranded Insulation Strip Length 6.4mm (0.250 in) Screw Tightening Torque 0.4Nm (3.6 lb-in) Rated Voltage 300Vac Display Display Type and Size 4 Digit LED, 9.14mm (0.36in) high Overrange Indication Flashing ‘9999’ Watts ➄ Decimal Point Selection Automatically Set Physical/Environmental Operating Temperature Storage Temperature Humidity (non-condensing) Dimensions Weight: 32A models Weight: 100A models Hex Nut Tightening Torque 0 – +60 °C –40 – +75 °C 0 – 85 % See mechanical specifications 1.3oz (37.9g) 1.5oz (43.5g) 0.14 N-m (20 ozf-in) ➀ Specified full-scale currents are those passing through the power meter’s built-in current transformer’s primary load-circuit. ➁ The overcurrent rating of 1.5 x the rated full-scale current is a continuous rating and applies to the current passing through the built in current transformer. Accuracy is guaranteed up to the rated current. ➂ ACM20 Power Meters are calibrated with near full-scale 60Hz sine-wave inputs. ➃ All specified maximum supply currents are steady state; larger surge currents can occur at initial application of line power. ➄ Applies to 32A model only. After the unit powers up to normal operation in the VOLTS reading mode, momentarily (approximately one second) touching the ‘SEL’ button on the unit’s front panel three times in succession will cycle the display to AMPS, WATTS, and end at PF (or HERTZ for ‘–F’ models). Momentarily touching ‘SEL’ a fourth time will return the display back to the VOLTS reading mode. Holding the 'SEL' button down for 3 seconds will place the unit in a continuous auto-cycling mode, and the display will repetitively scroll through all four measurements, with each measurement remaining displayed for 3 seconds. When the continuous auto-cycling mode is initially selected, the unit will briefly display ‘Auto On’ before continuous cycling begins. Momentarily touching the ‘SEL’ button again will cause the unit to briefly display ‘Auto OFF’ before it returns to the fixed VOLTS reading mode. 3. Calibration: Due their digital design, ACM20 power meters cannot be calibrated in the field. ACM20 power meters are factory-calibrated to meet their specified accuracies with the supplied L1 current transformer. Use of any other current transformer will produce significant errors for the Amps, Watts, and Power Factor measurements. Contact Murata Power Solutions if additional information is required regarding calibration, setup, or any other technical issue pertaining to ACM20 power meters. www.murata-ps.com/dpm email: [email protected] 30 Apr 2010 MPM_ACM20 Series.A06 Page 2 of 6 ACM20 Series Four-Function AC Power Meters 4. Wiring: All power supply wiring must be rated for the voltages and currents they will carry and must comply with any code or application-mandated requirements pertaining to the user’s specific installation. 5. Supply Fusing, and Grounding: ACM20 power meters are not internally fused. If supply fusing is required it must be externally installed according to the supply wire’s maximum amperage rating. No connection is required to earth/chassis ground. ACM20 power meters draw minimal steady-state supply currents (110mA max.), and in most applications can be fused according to the supply wire’s maximum amperage rating. However, these models can draw significantly higher surge currents for brief periods when the ac line voltage is initially applied to TB1. 6. Current Transformer Polarity: In order to perform accurate Watts and Power Factor measurements, connections to the two rear power supply inputs, TB1-A and TB1-B, and built-in current transformer L1 must have the proper polarity. That is, the load current flowing in the wire passing through L1's center hole must have the same polarity as the line voltage connected to TB1-A and TB1-B. The wiring diagrams in Figures 1-4 ensure that, for a purely resistive load, current flowing in current transformer L1’s primary circuit will have the same polarity as the applied voltage at TB1. If proper polarity is not followed, the Watts and Power Factor readings will be zero. To correct a zero Watts reading, simply reverse the direction of the load wire passing through the hole in L1. 7. Connector Torque Ratings: It is important to tighten TB1’s, screwterminals to their rated torque specification of 3.6 pound-inches (0.4Nm). Proper tightening will minimize connector losses and ensure safe, reliable operation. 8. Isolation: Except for the 2-56 thread metallic mounting studs, all of the ACM20 power meter’s internal components (printed circuit board, resistor, capacitors, current transformer L1’s secondary leads, etc.) are at the ac-mains potential connected to TB1. ACM20 power meters are designed to measure and be powered from one ac power-source only. Any other connection schemes will introduce significant measurement errors.

From the rear of the panel, install and then tighten the four #2-56 hex nuts over the threaded studs. Tighten each nut to 15 to 20 ozf-in (0.106 to 0.140 N-m). Use only the factory-supplied hardware as the use of substitute hardware could result in an unsafe installation and/or adversely affect the reliability of the installation. All connections to ACM20 power meters must be made after the unit is securely attached to the panel and with all associated load and supply voltages de energized (off), using extreme caution and observing all safety measures applicable to the user’s installation. Care should be exercised when passing conductors through the power meter’s built-in current transformer L1. The installed wirepositions should be such that minimal mechanical forces are applied to current transformer L1, TB1, or to the ACM20 power meter itself. In high-vibration environments, it is strongly recommended that adequate strain reliefs be used for all wiring. The recommended range of panel thickness that can be used with the supplied hardware is 0.040 inches (1.0mm) to 0.25 inches (6.4mm). Panel thicknesses outside of this range may require additional usersupplied hardware or modifications. Front panel space permitting, ACM20 power meters will fit most existing ACA-20RM / ACA-20PC ammeter cutouts, allowing for easy upgrading of existing installations.
