Solution for Integrating DLT645 Power Meters with BACnet Building Management Systems

Published: 2026-06-09 11:28:37

As building intelligence continues to improve, energy management has become a key indicator of operational efficiency in modern facilities. In a factory setting, DLT645 multifunctional smart power meters are installed in various distribution rooms to enable detailed energy monitoring across different floors, workshops, and critical circuits.

 

However, the existing building automation system uses the standard BACnet protocol, and the DLT645 meters cannot communicate directly with it. As a result, facility managers still rely on manual meter reading and Excel data entry. This outdated approach not only leads to high labor costs and delayed data updates but also fails to support realtime monitoring, energy analysis, and alarm notifications for abnormal conditions. To address these challenges, WideIOT provides a highly reliable and efficient IoT solution.

 

By deploying energy data collection gateways that connect to DLT645 meters, the system can collect realtime data such as power consumption, voltage, and current. This data is then converted to the standard BACnet protocol and transmitted via 5G/4G/WiFi/Ethernet to the building management system. This enables visualized monitoring and statistical analysis of energy usage across different floors, workshops, and equipment, creating a realtime communication network that supports precise energy management and continuous improvement in energy efficiency.

Key Features

The gateway is equipped with multiple serial ports, allowing it to collect data from multiple meters at once. It supports DLT645 to BACnet protocol conversion, enabling centralized monitoring and management of voltage, current, power, energy consumption, power factor, and other parameters.

 

Customizable alarm rules can be set up. When abnormal data is detected, automatic notifications can be sent via WeChat, SMS, or email, helping teams quickly locate unexpected energy waste and improve energy savings and efficiency.

 

Energy data can be categorized and visualized on a building management dashboard, providing quick insights into total energy consumption, workshop usage, equipmentlevel demand, and automatically generated reports for comparative analysis.

 

The gateway is designed for industrial environments with wide temperature and voltage tolerance, strong antiinterference capability, and rugged durability. It also supports features like automatic reconnection after network interruption and data recovery with local caching, ensuring stable, longterm operation and data integrity even in harsh conditions.
