The EKF brand's assortment has been expanded with the new UM-31 data collection and transmission device for working with intelligent electricity metering systems. The solution significantly simplifies the process of monitoring resource consumption, providing a reliable and convenient way to transmit data.

UM-31 collects meter readings and transmits information via GSM and Ethernet networks, making it an ideal choice for managing companies of apartment buildings. The device complies with the requirements of No. 522-FZ and No. 890-PP.

In combination with SCAT electric energy meters from EKF, UM-31 provides intelligent metering of electricity consumption in residential buildings and complexes. Moreover, the device can work not only with electricity metering devices, but also with water and heat meters.

UM-31 is compatible with automated power metering control systems (ASKUE) programs such as "Pyramid 2.0", "Pyramid-Networks", PC "Energosfera", "Enforce", "AlphaCENTER" and others. The device supports SPODES protocols and transport protocols MQTT, SMTP, HTTP, RTU-327 and JSON for universal data exchange.

UM-31 is mounted on a DIN-rail and powered by a single-phase two-wire network (150÷260 V), consuming 20 W of power at a frequency of 50 Hz. The device can connect up to 500 electricity metering devices and up to 1500 water and heat consumption metering devices, making it a powerful tool for organizing effective resource monitoring.

The new product will greatly simplify the work of management companies and increase the efficiency of resource accounting in multi-apartment residential buildings.
