The Need for Innovation in Energy Monitoring
In the face of the growing importance of effective energy management in both private and industrial sectors, the ability to leverage modern technologies is becoming crucial. One product that successfully meets these needs is the MEW-02 ETH electric energy monitor.
This product, developed by one of Poland's leading companies—Zamel—serves as an excellent example of the successful implementation of modern technology to meet the demands of a dynamically evolving market.
MEW-02 ETH Monitor: Addressing Market Challenges
Zamel, a Polish producer of building automation systems, introduced its first energy monitors as components of smart home systems. The MEW-01 model, originally designed for domestic use, quickly gained recognition for its ability to precisely monitor energy consumption in photovoltaic installations and homes.
The popularity of this solution among individual users inspired Zamel to expand its portfolio and adapt the technology to meet the needs of larger industrial installations. This led to the development of the MEW-02 ETH model, specifically designed for production facilities where precise measurements and integration with management systems are critical.
Features and Functionality
The MEW-02 ETH monitors a wide range of electrical parameters, including voltage, current, active and reactive power, as well as energy consumed and returned. The device supports both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, making it a flexible solution ideal for both domestic and industrial applications.
Advanced integration with external systems, such as ERP or infrastructure management tools, provides industrial companies with complete control over energy consumption while enabling the forecasting of potential failures. The introduction of transformers tailored to monitor installations with higher current levels, up to 400 A, has made the MEW-02 ETH a solution capable of meeting the needs of larger facilities.
Zamel: A Leader in Smart Home and Industrial Automation
Zamel has been operating in the electrotechnical market for over 30 years, maintaining a leading position in building automation solutions. While many users associate Zamel primarily with products in the smart home segment, the company is also developing solutions targeted at businesses and industry.
The success in the private sector, especially with the Supla system—which allows remote control of home electrical installations—contributed to Zamel's expansion into enterprise solutions. The introduction of the MEW-02 ETH model responded to market demands extending beyond home applications to include industrial energy management.
Collaboration Between Zamel and Transfer Multisort Elektronik
TME, a leading distributor of electronic components, plays a key role in supplying components for advanced technical solutions such as the MEW-02 ETH. TME is known for its reliability, maintaining high stock levels, and fast delivery of components, making it an ideal partner for technology manufacturers like Zamel.
The collaboration between the companies was based on a thorough understanding of the needs of the customers and markets they serve. TME ensured access to top-quality electronic components, enabling the rapid implementation of innovative solutions in the production of the MEW-02 ETH. Zamel, in turn, was able to offer a functional, well-thought-out product that enriched TME’s catalog.
Success in Industrial Energy Monitoring
One of the key factors contributing to the success of the MEW-02 ETH was its flexibility. The ability to monitor installations with higher current levels and integrate with external ERP systems allowed businesses to precisely control energy costs and forecast failures. As a result, the device has become an indispensable tool for maintenance departments and production facility managers.
Connectivity and Integration
The MEW-02 ETH offers both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, making it a universal solution for various types of industrial facilities. Another advantage is its ability to communicate via API and MQTT protocols, enabling the device to be integrated with corporate infrastructure management systems. Data transparency and automation of energy consumption monitoring processes are crucial for modern production facilities, where every minute of downtime can result in significant losses.
Environmental Benefits
Monitoring energy consumption not only improves energy efficiency but also reduces the carbon footprint. MEW-02 ETH users can control the self-consumption of energy from photovoltaic micro-installations and optimize energy usage in a more eco-friendly way, contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions.
The Added Value of Collaboration
The collaboration between Zamel and Transfer Multisort Elektronik is a perfect example of synergy, leading to the creation of a product that meets the needs of the modern market. The MEW-02 ETH energy monitor is not just a monitoring tool but a versatile system that contributes to cost optimization, improved efficiency, and environmental protection.
TME and Zamel have demonstrated that innovation is possible through close cooperation and attentiveness to market needs. The prospects for further development of this type of technology are promising, and the growing demand for solutions supporting energy management in industry highlights the immense potential of the MEW-02 ETH in the future.
