The future looks bright for both smart meters and smart grid. The market is projected to grow around $5 billion into 2020. Although this has regulators worried about policies that are in place for consumers, there are a lot of positive trends that root from these smart grid applications.

Setra's educational webinars and videos on demand provide helpful information on applications, industry best practices and more. These webinars and videos are just a few of Setra's readily available resources for technical info.

Did your state make the list of top 15 smart grid deployers? Does your community implement or require smart grids or meters? Many states are taking advantage of the benefits that they can provide including getting a more accurate reading on energy usage and tracking where wasted energy is occurring.

Usage of sensors in the Test & Measurement market are on the rise. According to analysis from Frost & Sullivan the market will increase by more than 28% by the year 2020. Setra Systems, Inc. is poised to meet this demand with our line of Highly Accurate and High Performing product lines. Our AccuSense platform provides industry leading overpressure capability, linearity, and performance over a wide temperature range.

The HeadStart software is used with the Setra Power Patrol meter. This windows based utility allows you to easily configure the meter prior to field installation by powering the device via USB port or checking real-time values before leaving the job site. This tutorial will take you through the HeadStart installation introduction, meter setup tab, communications setup tab, real-time values tab, read/write registers tab, and firmware tab.

The sensing and measurement of physical quantities through small changes in electrical capacitance is scarcely a new concept. The natural benefits of this approach were recognized for many years. But it was not until Setra engineers introduced new materials, new designs, and innovative, dedicated circuitry that the techniques full potential was realized in the practical, real world of pressure measurement.

HVAC controls are built around a number of parameters that affect a building’s interior environment; temperature, humidity, air intake, and air exhaust. Reliable inputs are critical to effective control. Setra provides robust, accurate sensors to help you control your air handling equipment with ease, efficiency, and dependability.

Here at Setra we realize that each customer is unique and every application has different requirements that necessitate different features in a pressure sensor. We have the best interests of the customer in mind and realize we may not have the best sensor for a particular situation.
