The single-tariff meter Mercury 230 AM provides commercial metering of active electrical energy in one direction. Accounting is carried out in three-phase alternating current networks with three or four wires. The counter is oriented at a frequency of 50 Hz. The device can operate both in stand-alone mode and as part of an automated control and measuring system. The device operates both directly and through transformers. Power measurement is carried out digitally.

The device meets the requirements of both GOST 3020 and IEC 1036.

The device is equipped with a galvanically isolated telemetric output, which meets the DIN 43864 standard.

The dimensions of the meter housing and terminal block are standard, which allows the use of universal fastening equipment during installation. The design of the device is very convenient and greatly simplifies the installation and operation process.

Main technical characteristics of the device:

1. Mercury 230 AM takes into account electrical energy in the single tariff mode on an accrual basis from the beginning of commissioning.

2. If there is a violation of the phasing of the current circuits in the network, the readings increase

3. The device is equipped with an LED indicator of the presence and consumption of electricity and an electromechanical reading device.

4. Standard telemetry makes it possible to use devices as part of an automated measurement system that is capable of receiving accounting information in telemetry pulses.

The technical features of the device fully satisfy the average needs. Mercury 230 AM has the first class of direct connection and 0.5 S class of transformer connection. The rated voltage for transformer connection is 3 * 57.7 / 100 V and the minimum and maximum current is 5 and 7.5 A, for direct - 3 * 220 / 380 V and 5.10 A (minimum) and 50, 100 A ( maximum). A current rating of 5 amps per half second allows the unit to produce a maximum current of 150 amps, and a 10 amp rating gives a maximum of 200 amps.

The sensitivity of the device when changing active energy is quite high. In this case, the device shows a fairly low level of power consumed by each parallel circuit. Active power consumption is no more than 1 W, and total power consumption is no more than 7.5 VA. In telemetry mode, the device constant is 800, 1600, 8000 pulses/kW, in test mode - 17070; 170700 imp/kW.

The meter remains operational at temperatures from -40 to +55 degrees. Mercury 230 AM has small dimensions and light weight (about one and a half kilograms).

The service life of the device is about 30 years, the warranty given by the manufacturer is 3 years. The device must be checked every 10 years.

The multi-tariff three-phase meter Mercury entered the market as a response to the introduction of several hourly electricity tariffs.

Three-phase meters are designed specifically for energy consumption metering and general monitoring of three-wire electrical networks.

In networks of this type, current is supplied to three phases, its total frequency is 50 Hz.

Models of three-phase multi-tariff meters Mercury

Today, about ten models of three-phase meters TM Mercury are presented on the Russian market:

  • 236 ART, the model is available in versions 01 and 02 PQRS and 01 and 02 PQL;
  • 234 ARTM, one of the most “professional” electricity meters, has 16 design options; some of the variations are distinguished by the presence of a GPRS modem, which allows you to establish a communication channel with devices that have GPRS sensors, as well as use the channels of mobile operators for communication. This Mercury model is additionally equipped with a backlit LCD display;
  • 234 ART, a powerful model that includes options such as fixation of magnetic interference, a backup power supply, and in some of the options there is an additional load shutdown function;
  • 230 ART, has 19 versions, including with a GSM modem;
  • 231 AT;
  • 230 AR, available in modifications 00R, 01R, 02R, 03R, as well as with a PLC modem;
  • 231 AM-01;
  • 230 AM-01.

Explanation of symbols:

  • A – the meter measures active electricity;
  • R – the meter keeps track of reactive electricity;
  • T – built-in tarifficator;
  • P – power profile;
  • Q – presence of a log of phase flows and electricity;
  • R – RS-485;
  • M – electromechanical reference device available;
  • L – presence of a PLC type modem;
  • S – availability of internal power to support the interface;
  • 01, 02 – modification number, which indicates the difference between meters in current, voltage and other parameters.

Features of the three-phase Mercury meter


Functionality of the three-phase Mercury meter:

  1. Accounting and storage of information on energy consumption.
  2. Storing information for each tariff (up to four possible tariffs: days, night, weekend, peak hour tariff for energy consumption), summing up tariffs.
  3. Collection of information about the latest events in the power grid: failures, power losses, loads.
  4. IRDA interface

IRDA interface is a built-in functionality that allows you to take readings from the device or change its settings using the remote control. This interface allows you to install the meter in a hard-to-reach place, hiding it from the eyes of strangers.

The IRDA interface solves the problem of taking readings from meters installed on poles in country and cottage villages.

The Mercury counter is equipped with a liquid crystal display, where all accounting and control data are displayed. In addition, the meter display shows the current date and time, temperature, and the results of the device’s self-diagnosis.

This is interesting: A feature of some models of three-phase meters is built-in modems that can transfer data from metering devices to other devices: mobile phones, smartphones. A very useful function for those homeowners who leave for a long time and for visiting electricians who have access to information about the status of the device 24/7.

Modems are built in two types - PLC and GSM:

  • PLC modem is a technology for transmitting data over an electrical network. The power cable becomes the data transmission route;
  • GSM modem is a technology for transmitting data from the meter via mobile operator channels.

All three-phase Mercury meters are capable of operating both in stand-alone mode with manual recording of metering information, and as part of a general electricity metering system AIIS, transmitting data centrally and on a schedule.

Note: many households and most small and medium-sized businesses began to install multi-tariff electricity meters that allow differentiated payments in order to save money.

The three-phase multi-tariff meter Mercury is a device for direct connection to the power grid.

The choice of meter options is dictated by the needs of the end user. So, for a home device, the function of remembering previous readings of the device is very interesting.

For the owner of a country house, the range of operating temperatures from +55 to -40 degrees will be interesting, which covers climatic conditions with a margin, because the meter can be installed either in a special box on an electrical pole or in unheated technical rooms.

Good to know: the installation of metering devices in country and cottage settlements is regulated by the Charter. In most cases, the Charter obliges electricity users to place measuring devices on poles and even outside the boundaries of the site. Therefore, when choosing a meter, it is necessary to understand the operating temperature range of the device.

For enterprises, a backup power supply, the presence of modems and communication channels, and many other indicators of the state of the electrical network that electricians use in their work will be relevant.

Multi-tariff meters with great functionality have a correspondingly high cost. The manufacturer provides a 36-month product warranty. Positive reviews from both master electricians, electrical network installers, and users make it possible to understand that money is being given for a high-quality device that will last for many years.
