Which electrical device in your office or household costs what amount of energy?

This question is answered quickly and reliably by the energy cost measuring device BX09 – offered at an optimum value-for-money ratio. With a minimum possible current indication of 0.1 W this measuring device even gets on the track of the smallest energy wasters, e.g. devices in standby mode. Simply plug the device in between a socket and the power consumer to be checked, and the BX09 will immediately display the current energy consumption. This can be done either as active power in watts, kWh, price or costs per kWh. Use the BX09 energy cost meter to check your electrical appliances, such as TVs and HiFi systems, LCD TVs, amplifiers, DVD players, video recorders, computers, servers, refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, dryers, air conditioners, heaters, ceiling washers, floor lamps, background and shop window lighting, machines, and much more.

The BX50 MID is probably the most compact ready-to-connect energy consumption measuring instrument with MID-compliance* on the market and therefore is the ideal solution for many craftsmen or service companies, which, for billing purposes, have to determine the amount of energy consumed at the customer's site. The MID-compliant* energy consumption measuring device can be easily plugged between the electrical appliance and a normal household safety socket (230 V/AC) and does not involve any further installation effort. Only when operating the BX50 MID on construction or installation sites at a socket of the building's wiring with unknown protective measures, a BGI-608-compliant plug adapter must be used.

Also perfect for floor-to-ceiling windows or balcony and patio doors.

The convenient door and window seal AirLock 1000 was specifically designed for sealing floor-to-ceiling windows or balcony and patio doors – it is the only window seal on the market that has a perimeter of up to 5.6 metres. The AirLock 1000 can be used for both one- or two-hose devices. Further information on all available AirLock versions is provided here.

A room thermostat is an intelligent temperature controller which regulates the room temperature fully automatically so as to comply with your requirements and settings. For this purpose, the socket thermostat is simply plugged into a free socket in the room and the power cable of the electric heating or cooling unit is connected to the room thermostat. After setting the desired target temperature, the integrated thermal sensor continuously measures the air temperature and switches the device connected on or off, as required, to obtain the desired room temperature.

Two different operating modes enable the use of both heaters and air conditioners. A connected heater is always switched on when the actual temperature is below the target temperature, and conversely, an air conditioner is used only if the air temperature measured is on the verge of exceeding the target temperature. In the case of digital room thermostats like the BN30, the target temperature can be preset in practical increments of 1 degree C (or Fahrenheit) in the range of 5 °C to 30 °C, and in the case of the radio thermostat BN35 even in the range of 0 °C to 70 °C.

For humidity-dependent control of the TTK 170 ECO or other dehumidifier with 6.35-mm jack socket for external hygrostat, for example for unattended drying processes in continuous operation.

The Trotec hygrostats HG 110, HG 120 and HG 130 are technically identical and only differ in their connection type. The HG 110 has a 6.35 mm jack plug. The HG 120 has a 4-pin DIN plug and the HG 130 is offered as a 230 V version with a maximum switching load of 10 A and a CEE 7/7 combination socket.

The external hygrostat HG 110 in combination with the matching dehumidifier serves as a two-point controller for controlling the relative humidity, for example, on indoor construction sites, in basement rooms, in climate control cabinets or for controlled dehumidification of office and computer rooms. Other areas of application are warehousing for goods or foodstuffs, cold storage rooms for fruit and vegetables, greenhouses of horticultural businesses, textile industry, paper and printing industry, film industry, hospitals. Wherever air humidity needs to be controlled or monitored, the HG 110 jack with the associated dehumidifier is generally applicable. 

Mode of operation and mounting location

The mounting location should be chosen to ensure a representative humidity measurement, i.e. the humidity readings at the mounting location should match those of the room and the humidistat should be located in the air flow. The room hygrostat responds quickly and accurately to changes in humidity. By adjusting the setpoint knob, the lever system is intervened in such a way that when the set humidity is reached, the internal microswitch is actuated.

The use of MID-compliant meters, however, is prescribed by law for determining the electricity consumption for commercial billing purposes, for example for insurances.

In addition to the MID-compliance* in some EU countries, however, further requirements with regard to the energy consumers concerned apply, like for example in Germany. Here, the Weights and Measures Act (MessEG) additionally requires the guarantee that for devices provided with a service socket neither further electricity consumers are connected during the period of use nor that they can be replaced by other consumers.

The smart solution to this task comes in the shape of Trotec's innovative PlugSafe base plate.

This base plate protected as a utility model for built-in sockets with flange mounting can be easily mounted to existing devices below the service socket available by authorized expert staff and then enables their proper protection by applying a seal to the two mounting angles facing the PlugSafe base plate.

TO THE PRODUCTS

This multiple socket outlet that is equipped with PlugSafe is a quality product from original EU-manufacturing of robust design with which you're on the safe side in every respect when it comes to current consumption. The PV4-MID PS can be variably used for indoor and outdoor applications and facilitates the usage in accordance with MID, MessEG and MessEV.

The PV4-MID PS is intended for the operation at proper building-site power distributors and meets the requirements of BGI 608 with respect to switching devices and distributors for circuits with sockets. Please note that a BGI 608-compliant plug adapter must be used when operating the PV4-MID PS on construction or installation sites at a socket of the building's wiring with unknown protective measures.

Practice-oriented equipment

The extremely robust solid rubber housing with integrated carrying handle accommodates four safety sockets in accordance with VDE 0620-1. Furthermore, the PV4-MID PS is provided with a residual current device (RCD) and an MID-compliant* energy consumption meter – both secured beneath a transparent sealing cap that can be locked by means of an optional U-lock.

The robust plastic mobile distribution boxes PV16 and PV32 with IP44 protection are equally suitable for adverse indoor and outdoor environments and can be used in a wide range of applications thanks to their two CEE sockets (16 A / 32 A, 400 V) and the earthing contact sockets (16 A /, 250 V), e.g. as power or lighting distributors on construction sites, in agriculture, at events and functions, as well as for industry and commerce or camping and leisure.

Trade or renovation companies are familiar with this problem: If several 16 A three-phase devices have to be operated on site, then the connection options available on site quickly become tight. This is because common surface-mounted socket outlet combinations usually accommodate only one additional 16 A CEE socket outlet in addition to a 32 A CEE socket outlet - this combination is also frequently found in mobile construction power distribution cabinets. Whether electric heaters, dehumidifiers, high-performance radial blowers or mobile air-conditioning units - when a particularly high level of power is required, such devices usually cannot manage without three-phase current. And even if the employees carry an appropriate power distributor with them, it can sometimes happen that suitable connection cables are missing in sufficient quantity. The robust plastic PV30 mobile distributor is a completely ready-to-connect solution equipped with a 32 A plug and two 16 A connection couplings. The input line and both output lines are each equipped with a two-meter connection cable, so that even missing cables do not pose an obstacle on site and at the same time sufficient operating radius for device installation is always guaranteed.
