Product overview
The YOBIIQ DEM1 brings single-phase energy measurement to compact DIN-rail installations. Its direct connection supports currents up to 45 A, with demand measurement and two digital outputs. Choose LoRaWAN for wireless reporting or Modbus RTU for a wired integration.
Use the meter to record demand and consumption at individual measurement points, so building and energy teams can compare operating periods and investigate unexpected use.
Why choose DEM1?
| Capability | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Single-phase direct measurement | Meter a circuit without external current transformers. |
| Demand measurement | Add demand information to the energy-consumption record. |
| LoRaWAN or Modbus RTU | Choose wireless or wired reporting when ordering. |
| DIN-rail mounting | Integrate the meter into a distribution board. |
| Model-specific I/O | Select the connections needed for the installation. |
Applications
| Application | Example uses |
|---|---|
| Buildings | Measure selected single-phase circuits in offices and shared spaces. |
| Equipment monitoring | Compare energy use across equipment operating periods. |
| Energy projects | Establish a baseline and assess the effect of operational changes. |
Digital output functions
The DEM1 has two digital outputs. Regulations required under the MID certification reserve the first output as a fixed S0 pulse output, used for verified consumption reporting to a separate metering or billing system.
The second output is configurable and can switch based on consumption, voltage or current thresholds. This makes it suitable for a range of applications, such as timer-based controls or prepaid/postpaid billing in combination with an external relay.
Digital output use cases
| Use case | Description |
|---|---|
| Prepaid or postpaid billing | Use the configurable output with an external relay to enable or disable supply based on prepaid credit or postpaid billing status. |
| Timer-based load control | Switch connected equipment on or off according to a configured schedule. |
| Remote load shedding | Drive a contactor or relay command to remove non-critical loads during demand peaks and avoid penalty costs. |
| Alarm beacon activation | Trigger visual or audible alarms when thresholds are crossed, making abnormal power behavior immediately visible on-site. |
| Controlled reconnect workflow | Support supervised remote reconnect procedures after validation checks in rental, tenant or temporary service scenarios. |
| Run/stop signal to auxiliary device | Send a simple control signal to ventilation, pump or process support equipment based on metering logic. |
