ASCO 5210 Digital Power Meter
The 5210 Digital Power Meter (DPM) is ASCO’s standard solution for providing deeper transparency into the happenings
in an electrical circuit. The meter is used to monitor, communicate, and display key electrical parameters that are critical
to understanding the real-time health and activity of loads or power sources. The data given by the meter provides the
information needed to make key decisions on-site regarding energy management, optimization, utilization, load planning, or even for general reference.

The DPM includes a backlit graphic LCD display and membrane control (keys).
All monitoring and control functions can be done from the front of the unit
for convenience and safety.
Often times, existing sites are the locations with the most
need for added monitoring, but are often the hardest to
modify. The 5210 DPM has the flexibility to allow installation in numerous environments. The 5210 can be installed
or retrofitted into new or existing Transfer Switches or
switchgear. Additionally the 5210 can be purchased premounted in a wall mount enclosure for monitoring third
party equipment, or as a loose meter for integration into
other systems. Regardless of where it is installed the 5210
will provide the needed data to allow knowledgable and
insightful decision making on a daily basis.

Getting the meter running is as easy as simply wiring the
voltage sense lines and current transformers, since it runs off
the monitored voltage, saving the time and money of wiring
additional, and often difficult to find, control power. Once
connected the meter will instantly begin displaying basic
data such as voltage, current, and power along with advanced
metrics such as total harmonic distortion, kW demand, and
energy. All the monitored data is available over Modbus via
the onboard serial connection or via the optional Ethernet
module which includes a remote and mobile friendly webpage.
