GridVis®
Energy monitoring & power quality analysis software platform
GridVis is Janitza's PC/server-based energy-monitoring and power-quality-analysis software platform (current major version: GridVis 9). It's the visualization/management layer sitting on top of Janitza's UMG analyzers, RCM devices, and MID-certified meters, pulling in measurement data, storing it in a database, and providing dashboards, alarms, reports, and energy-management/compliance functionality. Current naming for the three sales tiers is Essentials / Standard / Expert (older "Basic/Professional/Service/Box" naming is outdated).
Key Features
- 01GridVis Essentials, free entry tier: device config, live/historical graphing, event browser, standard reports
- 02GridVis Standard: paid, item-licensed (5/10/25/50/100/100+ items), 1-year updates
- 03GridVis Expert, full feature set: LDAP/AD integration, multi-level alarm escalation, virtual measurement points, DB admin, RBAC, online recorder, Sankey diagrams, KPI/baseline tracking, OPC UA/Modbus client, REST API, custom PDF reports
- 04GridVis Cloud: hosted web portal, EU-hosted data, 15-min interval recording (commercial status unclear as of research; verify with Janitza)
- 05GridVis Collector: portable hardware accessory for on-site data readout, syncs to central DB
- 06Calculates PUE/CER for data centers; supports ISO 50001, EN 50600-2-2/4-2
Applications
- Power Quality SolutionsPower quality problems such as harmonics, voltage sags and swells, flicker, transients and voltage unbalance can occur in electrical systems. They can arise from non-linear loads, sudden load changes, network events and the electrical structure of the facility itself. Poor power quality can cause overheating in equipment, nuisance tripping, energy losses, shorter equipment life and interruptions to production continuity. At EPKOM we use power quality analyzers to measure and monitor LV and MV systems, recording harmonics, voltage events and the other power quality parameters. We evaluate the resulting data against the relevant standards, such as EN 50160, IEC 61000 and IEEE 519, according to the measurement point and the scope of the application. Following measurement and analysis, we apply active and passive harmonic filters, SVG systems, compensation solutions and power quality monitoring systems according to the needs of the facility, helping the electrical infrastructure run more safely, efficiently and stably.
- Energy Monitoring SystemsEnergy monitoring systems measure and analyse electricity consumption continuously, at facility, feeder, department or machine level. Alongside electricity, other energy sources such as water, natural gas and compressed air can be tracked through the same system. Data from Janitza energy analyzers is collected centrally in the GridVis software, where consumption trends, load profiles and energy performance indicators can be followed. Automatic reporting and alarm functions make abnormal consumption and energy losses quick to identify. Energy monitoring systems help to allocate energy costs correctly, to identify inefficient points of consumption and to improve energy performance continuously. They also support ISO 50001 energy management processes and make it possible to track energy performance indicators such as PUE in data centers.
