Savant Adds Wi-Fi Power Management Products to SmartEnergy Lineup
Savant Systems, LLC has introduced three power management products to complement the company's SmartEnergy product line.
The SmartEnergy products are primarily focused on energy monitoring, and these new devices bring Wi-Fi connectivity to the line-up. Installers and end-users can now access SmartEnergy monitoring and control features with simple plug-in modules.
The three new energy management products include a Wi-Fi enabled wall plug, power strip and a current sensor. These new devices have been designed to give users significant energy management data at cost-effective price points and are an ideal solution for retrofit installations because they do not require rewiring.
Savant's Wi-Fi SmartPlug delivers power measurement for individual appliances, whereas the power strip provides six outlets; four managed receptacles for power measurement and two unmanaged receptacles that still benefit from the surge protection feature. Both the single plug and the power strip offer surge protection as well as remote on/off control capability using Savant's TrueControl apps. The current sensor enables integrators to offer monitoring of a single circuit that is hardwired without a plug accessible.
"As a larger segment of the population has become focused on energy usage, Savant is determined to give integrators more tools to address this growing market demand," explained Jim Carroll, Savant's Executive Vice President Corporate Strategy & Business Development. "Savant has been an innovator in this arena with our SmartEnergy solutions and these new Wi-Fi power management products broaden our offerings and will bring critical energy usage data to the homeowner," concluded Carroll.
Savant's new energy management devices will become available from Savant Q4, 2013.
