Desarrollo e implementación de un software de adquisición y monitoreo de datos, para medición de energía eléctrica en la Empresa Plasticaucho Industrial S.A.

Abstract

It has developed and implemented a software of acquisition and monitoring data to measure electrical energy in the Plasticaucho Company S.A., in order to monitor electrical variables in real time and to have records to carry out a continuos analysis of electrical energy data and send monthly consumption reports to each one of the production plants. The software and acquisition system display and recorder electrical variables that the meters ship through the modbus RS485 network, which carries information by means of a bridge EGX100 to allow communication between modbus and Ethernet and get data into a computer. The OPC server of LabView allow to display the programming with the visualization functions in real time of data, graphics, and electrical variable in storage a database and report generation. Through software implementation, time for reports on monthly energy carryng out is diminished and besides in permits a record of electrical variables. It is recommended to delete the database recorder at least once a year, in order to avoid the storage disk defaults.
