CZone MI meter interface

The CZone MI (Meter Interface) meter interface is a device designed for full integration of marine and mobile electrical systems. It enables detailed monitoring of AC and DC power supplies by centralizing data from various current and voltage sensors, then broadcasting it over the CZone/NMEA 2000 network.

The CZone MI interface features three AC voltage inputs and two AC current inputs. These inputs enable the calculation of true RMS power for accurate AC system monitoring.

For DC monitoring, the CZone MI interface has three DC voltage inputs and two DC current inputs. It provides measurement resolution down to 0.1A for DC currents.

Through its DC monitoring capabilities, the CZone MI interface enables precise calculation of battery capacity in ampere-hours and the remaining charge percentage. This is a key feature for effective battery energy management aboard.

The CZone MI interface has compact dimensions of 100 mm height (H), 156 mm length (L), and 42 mm depth (P).

The CZone MI module weighs 281 grams (0.281 kg).

The CZone MI interface has an IPX5 water immersion protection rating, making it resistant to water jets and suitable for marine environments.

Yes, the CZone MI interface is ignition-protected, ensuring enhanced safety in marine environments where flammable gases may be present.

A 0.1A DC current measurement resolution enables highly precise monitoring of DC power consumption and loads, which is critical for fine energy management and accurate battery state estimation.

The CZone MI interface is a dedicated and advanced module designed as an add-on for complex systems. Unlike some multifunction displays (MFD) that may include basic monitoring functions, the MI is specialized in power monitoring.

The CZone MI interface is designed to operate on the CZone/NMEA 2000 network. It broadcasts monitoring data over this standardized network.
