Measurement and monitoring

RWVLM

Online Measurement and Monitoring

RWVLM Online Measurement and Monitoring hardware

Rail‑to‑earth voltage, VLD current and device state, with immediate email, SMS and system alerts when a fault is registered.

The FT version adds its own forced switch‑off mechanism for the connected VLD, including VLDs from other manufacturers.

Explore RWVLM

The RW class 2 platform already led the market at 25 kA at 50 ms. The new HP models raise this rating to 34 kA at 50 ms — the highest published recoverable short‑time current identified in VLD class 2.
