Allen-Bradley 1426-M5E PowerMonitor 5000 M5 Ethernet/IP Meter

Product Overview

The 1426-M5E serves as a high-performance, 100% Brand New original PowerMonitor 5000 unit designed for comprehensive energy analysis. This M5 model integrates seamlessly into industrial networks via EtherNet/IP, providing real-time data visualization through its built-in web interface. It monitors complex electrical systems up to 600VLL AC with elite precision, ensuring your facility maintains peak energy efficiency and hardware longevity.

Technical Specifications

The following table outlines the critical performance parameters for the 1426-M5E:

Engineering Advantages

• Precision Control via Digital Relays: Four onboard digital relays execute logic-based switching. They handle resistive loads up to 10A @ 24V DC and motor loads up to 1/3HP @ 125V AC, allowing the meter to trigger protective hardware or alarms instantly.

• Rugged Industrial Durability: The unit withstands 50 G non-operating shocks and maintains performance in high-vibration environments (2 G). This resilience ensures data integrity in heavy manufacturing zones or near high-torque motor starts.

• Seamless Network Integration: The native EtherNet/IP port eliminates the need for complex protocol converters. Engineers access the internal webpage directly to configure parameters, view harmonics, and analyze waveforms without specialized software.

• Compact High-Voltage Monitoring: While many meters require potential transformers for higher ranges, the 1426-M5E handles up to 600VLL AC directly, simplifying the wiring footprint in crowded control cabinets.

FAQs

• Does this unit come in original packaging?

  Yes. We supply only 100% Brand New original 1426-M5E units in factory-sealed packaging to ensure compliance with UL61010 and EN61010 standards.

• How does the 1426-M5E handle inductive loads?

  The integrated relays support inductive "Make" values up to 30A @ 120V AC. This allows the meter to safely manage the high inrush currents typical of industrial solenoids and contactors.

• Can I monitor the data without a PLC?

  Absolutely. The 1426-M5E features a built-in web interface. Any standard web browser on your local network provides access to real-time metering data and configuration settings.

• What are the environmental limitations for installation?

  Install the 1426-M5E in indoor environments only. It operates reliably between -20 °C and 70 °C and requires a non-condensing atmosphere to prevent dielectric breakdown.
