Perth, Western Australia (April 16, 2015) – Auto Control Systems, a Perth automation company, integrates and distributes the BFM136 Multi-Channel Energy Meter for multi-tenant environments. The BFM136 is a product of SATEC, a global leader in energy management solutions.

The BFM136 is considered a breakthrough technology since it is the only multi-circuit monitor that the NMI regulations in Australia recognize as an approved meter for electricity billing. Aside from accurate metering, this technology enables logging and multi-tariff Time-of-Use (TOU) data as well as demand and energy readings. Such innovative features offer a solution to rising energy costs for both residential and commercial complexes.

The BFM136 presents many characteristics that make it ideal for accomplishing the aforementioned capabilities. First, it has a compact design that allows it to fit in limited spaces. Multiple meters can easily be installed in existing panel boards. The unique split core CTs offer an inexpensive way to retrofit. In addition, the device can accommodate 36 single-phase circuits, 12 three-phase circuits, or any combination in between. It performs at up to 0.5S accuracy, making it the most accurate multi measuring meter on the market today.

Another strong feature that sets the BFM136 apart from the rest is the scope and variety of data it provides. The BFM136 records a 100-day daily energy profile separately per tenant. It also has internal plug-in modules that ensure utmost flexibility and enables remote access through a variety of channels and protocols. Furthermore, it is compatible with SATEC’s eXpertpower, an energy management system that allows users to access data from anywhere and at any time.
