This panel-mounted power and energy meter with a
large, three-row LED display integrates all the measuring functions required for power management in
locations such as factories and buildings into a single
unit.
With the objective of working toward the preservation
of the global environment by saving energy and
performing equipment maintenance, the PR300 is
designed to display and output the energy of various
types of electrical equipment.
■ Features
• Saves on cost, wiring, and space
Integrates a wide selection of functions for measuring things
like energy (active, regenerative, reactive, and apparent),
power (active, regenerative, reactive, and apparent),
voltage, current, frequency, and power factor into a single
unit.
• Employs a large, three-row LED display
Capable of displaying three-phase current and voltage
simultaneously, and the measurement items you assign.
• Analog output function
Equipped with a transducer function for power (active,
regenerative, reactive, and apparent), voltage, current,
frequency, and power factor (4 to 20 mA DC).
• Demand measurement
Measures the average power and current within a specified
period. It also allows you to set up alarm points to output
alarms.
• Equipped with a multitude of functions
Enables measurement of the maximum and minimum
values of voltage and the maximum value of current, as well
as, for example, the use of external digital input to measure
energy at arbitrary times.
• Pulse output
Capable of outputting pulses proportional to energy (one
measurement item from active, regenerative, reactive, and
apparent energy).
• Converts the phase and wire system of an AC power
system and an input voltage circuit to a universal
format
The PR300 can handle from the single-phase two-wire
system and single-phase three-wire system to the threephase three-wire system and three-phase four-wire system,
and also universally cope with input voltage circuits up to
600 V AC.
• Compatible with ANSI 4-inch round form size and
DIN 96-square instrument size
The ability to attach and detach JIS/ANSI-mounting kit
makes the PR300 compatible with panel cutouts of ANSI 4inch round form, JIS 110-square instrument size, and DIN
96-square instrument size.
•Standard equipped with an RS-485 communication
function and capable of Ethernet communication
• Compatible with overseas requirements
Power line indications A, B, and C provided for overseas
use, in addition to R, S, and T
ANSI 4-inch round form size

Demand power
*1 Integrated low-cut power can be set for each energy.
Integrated low-cut power: This is a function for not integrating power less than a set value as energy.
The setting range of integrated low-cut power is 0.05 to 20.00% of the rated power (initial value: 0.05%).
*2 Either demand power or demand current can be set as a measurement item.
*3 Can be used only when the voltage is in a state of equilibrium.
*4 Can be measured only when the current is in a state of equilibrium.
Power is integrated while a control signal for optional integration is on.
When the control signal is switched from off to on, the optional integrated value indication is reset and integration
starts. (The integrated value prior to the reset is held in a register.) The integrated value cannot be guaranteed in
the event of a power failure occurring during integration.
● Demand measurement (when demand measurement is specified)
The PR300 measures average power or average current within a set demand period.
The maximum demand value for the demand measuring time is held until the power is turned off, remote reset is
executed, or the next demand measurement is started.

following table are also available if the parameters are set.)

initial value is "1" and only display pattern-1 is displayed when this value is set.
If the VT ratio and CT ratio are set, input to the PR300 is displayed after converting it to the primary input value before VT
or CT. The VT and CT ratios can be set via communication or using the operation keys.
VT ratio setting range: 1 to 6000*
CT ratio setting range: 0.05 to 32000*
