Description

3.1 Performance features of the SENTRON PAC4200

SENTRON PAC4200 is a Power Monitoring Device for displaying, storing, and monitoring all relevant system parameters in low-voltage power distribution. It is capable of single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase measurement and can be used in two-wire, three-wire, four-wire, TN, TT, and IT systems.
Thanks to its compact design in 96 x 96 mm format, it fits into any standard cutout. The SENTRON PAC4200 measures around 200 electrical variables with minimum values, maximum values and demands.
With its large measured voltage range, SENTRON PAC4200 with a wide-voltage power supply can be connected direct in any low-voltage system up to a rated system voltage of 690 V (max. 600 V for Vph).
Higher voltages can be measured using voltage transformers. For measuring current, either x / 1 A or x / 5 A current transformers can be used.
The large graphical LC display permits reading even from a distance. SENTRON PAC4200 has adjustable backlighting for optimal readability even under poor lighting conditions.
The combination of four function keys with the multi-language plaintext displays makes intuitive user prompting possible. The experienced operator can also use direct navigation for quicker selection of the desired display menu.

SENTRON PAC4200 guarantees high measuring accuracy. It can be used to capture and store load profiles according to various methods. It has a range of useful monitoring, diagnostics, and service functions, a two-tariff apparent energy, active energy and reactive energy counter, two universal counters, and an operating hours counter for monitoring connected loads.
The SENTRON PAC4200 saves the apparent, active and reactive energy consumption per day and tariff over one year. In addition, the Power Monitoring Device has an apparent, active and reactive energy counter for recording the energy consumption of a manufacturing process. A separate operating hours counter calculates the duration of this process. The available digital inputs are used to control the process energy counters.
A comprehensive, parameterizable signaling system allows application-specific monitoring of various events, such as limit violations or operator interventions.
The data memory of the device and the internal clock are battery-backed. The integral 10 / 100 Mbit Ethernet interface or an optional expansion module can be used
for communication, e.g. the SENTRON PAC RS485 expansion module or the SENTRON PAC PROFIBUS DP expansion module.
SENTRON PAC4200 has two multifunctional digital inputs and two multifunctional digital outputs.

Description
3.1 Performance features of the SENTRON PAC4200
With optional SENTRON PAC 4DI/2DO expansion modules, it is possible to expand the SENTRON PAC4200 with up to 8 digital inputs and up to 4 digital outputs. This makes a maximum configuration of 10 digital inputs and 6 digital outputs possible. The external digital inputs and digital outputs have the same functions as the integral digital inputs and digital outputs. Thanks to the internal power supply, the digital inputs and digital outputs of the expansion modules can be used as S0 interfaces in accordance with IEC 62053-31. This also enables the use of simple floating contacts for wiring the digital inputs.
The parameters can be set either direct on the device or with the SENTRON powerconfig configuration software.
Password protection is integrated to guard against unauthorized access.

3.4 Load profile

3.4 Load profile

3.4.1 Overview

The load profile records the time history of the electric power and thus documents the distribution of power fluctuations and peaks.
SENTRON PAC4200 supports load profile recording according to the "fixed block" or "rolling block" method. With both methods, the load profile is stored in the device and made available at the communication interfaces.
SENTRON PAC4200 is capable of intelligently interpreting synchronization signals received at irregular intervals. Any deviations from the set times are documented in the load profile.
Accessing the load profile data
Note Data access via the software
Current and historical load profile data can only be accessed via the communication interfaces. For more information, please see the related documentation.
Configuring load profile recording
You can adapt load profile recording using the configuration software or on the display of the device. The following parameters influence the recording:
● Length of the demand period or subperiod
● Number of subperiods per demand period. This number defines the method for recording the load profile ("fixed block" or "rolling block")
● Type of synchronization
You can also set the following parameter with the configuration software:
● Type of reactive power VAR
You can find more information about parameterization on the device display in the chapter "Parameterizing", "Power demand".
Changing the configuration during operation: If the period length or the number of subperiods is changed, this directly influences the load profile recording. The device stops the current recording and clears all data in the load profile memory. Changing the configuration has no effect on the device counter. The device is not reset.

Parameterizing the fixed block and rolling block methods
SENTRON PAC4200 supports the fixed block method as a special case of the rolling block method. The most important distinguishing feature is the number of subperiods.
Number of subperiods: The demand period can be divided into a maximum of five subperiods.
● The number "1" defines the fixed block method. In this case, the length of the subperiod is identical to the length of the demand period.
● The numbers "2" to "5" define the rolling block method.

3.4 Load profile
Storage capacity of the load profile memory
The data volume that occurs when a load profile is recorded depends on the length of the period.
SENTRON PAC4200 can record load profile data for the following configuration over a period of 40 days:
● Fixed block:
Length of the demand period: 15 minutes
● Rolling block:
Length of the subperiods: 15 minutes This corresponds to a maximum of 3840 recorded periods. This calculation applies to the ideal case in which the actual period length is identical to the
configured length for all periods over the complete load profile recording time. Any deviations between the actual and configured period lengths additionally increase the data volume.

3.4.3 Current load profile data at the communication interfaces

Current load profile data
SENTRON PAC4200 supplies the load profile data for the current and instantaneous periods at the communication interfaces.
● The current period is the last completed period.
● The instantaneous period is the period still in progress and has not yet been completed. You can find more information on accessing the data via MODBUS in the Appendix.

Description
3.4 Load profile
Synchronization types
The device can obtain the synchronization pulse from an external source
● As a signal at the digital input,
● As a command via the communication interfaces. The device can control the synchronization itself
● By means of the internal clock.
Handling of irregular, external synchronization pulses
SENTRON PAC4200 checks whether the external synchronization pulse is received at the set time, too soon, too late, or not at all. If the deviation from the set time exceeds a defined tolerance, this results in a shorter period.
If the complete time frame for received pulses is offset, SENTRON PAC4200 automatically adapts to the new time frame.
Synchronization via the communication interface
The synchronization frame contains the length of the subperiod in minutes. The synchronization command is ignored if the period length sent to the device with the synchronization frame is different to the length parameterized in the device.
Synchronization with the internal clock
The length of the subperiod, and thus also the demand period, is determined solely by the internal clock.
A subperiod starts on the full hour plus a multiple of the configured subperiod length. Correction of the time during the current demand period or beyond the end of the demand
period results in shorter demand periods. SENTRON PAC4200 marks these periods with the valuation indicator "resynchronized".
It does not record any substitute values for the gaps that are created in the time history.
Response to powering up
All load profiles that have already been recorded remain unchanged. SENTRON PAC4200 resets the internal clock if it detects load profiles with a date in the
future or a time in the past on powering up.
Impact of a tariff change on the load profile
Tariff changes between off-peak and on-peak have an impact on the load profile because all values stored in the profile are uniquely assigned to the applicable tariff.
The old tariff remains valid until the end of the instantaneous period. The new tariff takes effect at the start of the next period. The energy counters of SENTRON PAC4200 are switched to the other tariff at the end of the instantaneous demand period.

3.5 Tariffs

Impact of a measuring voltage failure
A failure of the measuring voltage has no effect on the load profile.
Impact of a supply voltage failure
The device records shorter periods if the supply voltage fails and when it is restored. It does not record any substitute values for the duration of the power failure.

3.4.5 Additional information about the load profile data

SENTRON PAC4200 records the following additional information for each period:
● "Resynchronized"
The period was prematurely ended by the device owing to a synchronization irregularity.
● "Supply voltage failed"
The period was prematurely ended owing to the failure of the supply voltage.
● "Unreliable"
The load profile data is unreliable.
– The measuring current or the measuring voltage is outside the specified range.
– The reactive power type has changed. The additional information is stored together with the other load profile data and can be
called via the communication interface.

3.5 Tariffs
SENTRON PAC4200 supports two tariffs for the integrated energy counters (on-peak and off-peak).
Impact of the tariff change
The tariff change affects all energy counters for active energy, reactive energy, and apparent energy.
Controlling the tariff change
A tariff change between off-peak and on-peak can be requested by means of a digital input or via the communication interfaces.
Time-related switching is only possible using a higher-level system.

Activation of a tariff change at the end of a period
The old tariff remains valid until the end of the instantaneous period. The new tariff takes effect at the start of the next period. The energy counters of SENTRON PAC4200 are switched to the other tariff at the end of the instantaneous demand period.
Without synchronization, the tariff change takes effect immediately.

3.8 Limits

The SENTRON PAC4200 display indicates the configured local time corresponding to the time difference due to time zones and daylight saving time.
UTC time: Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) is the international reference time. Time zone: Geographical areas with the same positive or negative deviation from UTC time
are grouped together in time zones. Local time: Local time is UTC time plus or minus the time difference due to the time zone
plus or minus the time difference due to the locally applicable daylight saving time. Example: 3.36 p.m. CEST (local time in Germany) on September 10, 2008 corresponds to
1.36 p.m. (UTC time) on September 10, 2008. Germany is located in the UTC+1 time zone.
Daylight saving time applies on the above-mentioned date, so that the local time difference is increased by one hour ("+1").
Synchronization of the internal clock
The internal clock of SENTRON PAC4200 can be synchronized with an external time, e.g. with the "Top of minute" pulse or with a synchronization command via the available communication interfaces.
Synchronization is relevant for all measured variables where the time of occurrence is also captured, e.g. for recording the load profile.
3.8 Limits
SENTRON PAC4200 monitors up to 12 limit values as well as one limit that can be formed by logically combining the other 12 limits.
Defining the limit values
The number of limit values to be monitored is selectable. The following must be specified for each of the maximum of 12 limit values:
● Limit value monitoring ON/OFF
● Monitored measured variable
● Threshold
● Upper or lower limit violated
● Time delay
● Hysteresis
Combination of the limit values
The limit value formed by the logical combination is called "LIMIT LOGIC". SENTRON PAC4200 provides parameterizable logic for combining the limit values that
supports brackets, takes account of priority rules, and allows logical negation. The logic is represented on the display using the graphic symbols familiar from digital
technology: Four logic function blocks are connected upstream of one higher-level logic function block. Each of the upstream logic function blocks has 4 usable inputs.

Properties of the Ethernet interface
● Transmission rate 10 / 100 Mbit/s
● RJ45 socket (8P8C) on the top of the device for RJ45 connector with EIA/TIA T568B
assignment
● Cable type 100Base-TX (CAT5)
The Ethernet cable must be grounded for data transmission according to the Fast Ethernet standard. You can find information on grounding in the "Connecting" chapter.
● Autonegotiation
● MDI-X auto crossover
● Communication over MODBUS TCP
NOTICE
Interference with other network nodes due to incorrect network settings Incorrect network settings can adversely affect or interfere with the functions of other
network nodes The network settings for Ethernet are defined by the system administrator and must be set accordingly on the device.
If the settings are not known, the (patch) cable must not be connected.
Autonegotiation is a method used by network communication peers to automatically negotiate the highest possible transmission rate. SENTRON PAC4200 is automatically set to the transmission rate of the communication peer if the latter does not support autonegotiation.
MDI-X auto crossover describes the ability of the interface to autonomously detect the send and receive lines of the connected device and adjust to them. This prevents malfunctions resulting from mismatching send and receive wires. Both crossed and uncrossed cables can be used.
3.11 Slots for expansion modules
Interface
SENTRON PAC4200 has two slots (MOD1 and MOD2) for installing optionally available expansion modules.
Please consult the current catalogs to find out which modules are available for SENTRON PAC4200.
One expansion module can be operated alone on the device or two expansion modules simultaneously.

3.12 Gateway
SENTRON PAC4200 can be used as a gateway. This allows devices (slaves) that are connected to the RS485 expansion module of PAC4200 to be connected to a device over Ethernet (master).
Operating principle
Data sent by the master to the addressed target device: The higher-level software packages the serial protocol into TCP/IP packets. SENTRON PAC4200 unpacks the TCP/IP packets and forwards the freed packets of the serial protocol to the serial port (RS485).
Data sent by the addressed target device to the master: SENTRON PAC4200 packages the serial protocol packets into the TCP protocol and forwards the packaged user data to the higher-level software.

6.5 Grounding of the Ethernet cable
The Ethernet cable must be grounded for data transmission according to the Fast Ethernet standard.
NOTICE
The upper limit values will be violated if the cable is not grounded Compliance with the technical limit values for noise radiation and noise immunity is only
guaranteed if the cable is correctly grounded. The operator of the system is responsible for ensuring compliance with the statutory limit values (CE mark).
Make a shield connection on both sides as described here.

6.5 Grounding of the Ethernet cable
Design
Ground the Ethernet cable at both ends. To do this, expose the foil shield of the Ethernet cable. Connect the exposed shield to a suitable grounding point on the control cabinet, preferably a shielding bus.
Figure 6-22 Grounding of the Ethernet cable
● Be careful not to damage the foil shield of the cable when removing the cable jacket.
● Fasten the exposed shield with a metal cable clamp or alternatively with a hose tie. The clamp must clasp around a large portion of the shield and provide good contact.
● To allow good contact, a tin-plated or galvanically stabilized surface is ideal. With galvanized surfaces, the contact should be achieved using suitable screws. A painted surface at the contact point is not suitable.
NOTICE
Loss of contact if the shield connection is incorrectly used for strain relief If the shield connection is used for strain relief, the grounding contact can deteriorate or
be completely lost. Don't use the contact point on the cable shield for strain relief.
CAUTION
Damage to Ethernet Cable Shield due to Voltage Difference between Grounding Points. If there is a voltage difference between grounding points, excessive current may flow
through the shield which is grounded at both ends. In these cases, install an additional conductor in parallel with the Ethernet cable shield
to carry this current. Never interrupt the shield of the Ethernet cable.
