Engineers Choose OptoEMU Sensor for Energy Monitoring
Control Engineering Readers
Recognize Opto 22's Out-of-the-Box Energy Monitoring Appliance for its
Technological Advancement and Market Impact
Temecula, CA - February 23, 2011 -
Engineers in the automation and control industry clearly find value in
a simple, low-cost energy monitoring solution that helps them cut
costs. Opto 22's OptoEMU Sensor-an energy monitoring and data
acquisition appliance that gathers building and machine energy usage
data for presentation online-has won Control Engineering's prestigious
Engineers' Choice Award.
Primarily designed for facilities
and maintenance personnel, building owners, plant managers, and others
tasked with their organization's energy management responsibilities,
the OptoEMU Sensor lets commercial and industrial customers acquire
power consumption data from facility systems, machines, equipment and
metering devices in real time and with minimal configuration. Using
standard, IP-based wired or wireless communications interfaces, the
Sensor can deliver energy data to standard SQL databases, Web-based
applications like Google PowerMeter and Pulse Energy's Pulse(tm), or
Opto 22's free PAC Project(tm) software. This effectively gives
customers the visibility and information they need to quickly
understand their energy usage, pinpoint problems, and reduce costs.
In this year's Control Engineering
Engineers' Choice Awards, the OptoEMU Sensor was recognized for its
technological advancement and market impact as a data acquisition
product in the "Network Integration" category. The selection is Opto
22's tenth such award from Control Engineering, including honors for
its SNAP PAC Wired+Wireless(tm) controller and its intelligent I/O for
Allen-Bradley Systems (IO4AB). All of this year's winners will be
showcased in the print and digital editions of the February issue of
Control Engineering, as part of the cover story. For more information,
