Onset Announces Energy Measurement and Verification System

Published 10/11/2009

Onset, a leading supplier of data loggers, announced the release of HOBO® Measurement & Verification System in October of 2009. HOBO® is a portable energy logging system for measuring, analyzing, and documenting building energy performance. The self-contained system makes it convenient and economical for energy performance contractors, energy consultants, and building energy managers to track the performance of building systems, such as chillers and packaged HVAC units, and verify the impact of energy efficiency improvements. Many projects, such as those funded by sustainable energy grants through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, require greater accountability when it comes to building energy performance data. The HOBO® Measurement & Verification System provides the tools needed by energy engineers to manage a wide variety of projects. The system, which is housed in a rugged, heavy-duty carrying case, provides pre-wired sensors for quick set up, and includes magnetic mounting feet for fast, secure placement in electrical panels. Users can plot and analyze energy performance data with the accompanying HOBOware® software. HOBOware provides an intuitive, graphical user interface that enables users to quickly and easily graph, analyze, and print data files, as well as export the data to Microsoft Excel and other spreadsheet programs. The HOBO Measurement & Verification System is available in both single-phase and three-phase models. Both models include a 4-channel HOBO Micro Station data logger, energy sensors, software, and associated cables and accessories. For more information, visit Onset.
