3. Configuració i instal·lació
Proper installation is crucial for the accurate and safe operation of the ACM100. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified technician.
3.1. Ubicació de muntatge
Choose a dry, protected location away from direct heat sources or excessive vibration. Ensure adequate space for wiring and future access. The device is designed for surface mounting.
3.2. Connexions elèctriques
- Connexió d'alimentació: Connect the ACM100 to a stable 9-16 VDC power source, typically from the NMEA 2000 network.
- AC Current Sensing: The ACM100 uses a current transformer (CT) to measure AC current. Ensure the CT is correctly installed around the AC conductor you wish to monitor. Observe polarity markings on the CT and the ACM100.
- NMEA 2000 Network Connection: Connect the ACM100 to your NMEA 2000 backbone using a standard NMEA 2000 drop cable. Ensure the network is properly terminated and powered.
Avís: Disconnect all power sources before making any electrical connections to prevent electric shock or damage to the device.
4. Instruccions de funcionament
Once properly installed and powered, the Maretron ACM100 automatically begins monitoring the AC current. Data is transmitted over the NMEA 2000 network and can be viewed on any compatible NMEA 2000 display or software.
4.1. Visualització de dades
Refer to your NMEA 2000 display's user manual for instructions on how to configure it to show AC current, voltage, frequency, and power factor data from the ACM100. Common parameters include:
- Corrent CA (Amps): Real-time current draw.
- Vol. ACtage (volts): Vol d’entradatage of the AC system.
- Freqüència (Hz): Frequency of the AC power.
- Factor de potència: Indication of power efficiency.
4.2. Calibration (if applicable)
The ACM100 is factory calibrated. Field calibration is generally not required. If you suspect inaccuracies, consult Maretron support or a qualified technician.
5. Manteniment
The Maretron ACM100 is designed for minimal maintenance.
