Elemeasure Maximul Demand Controller

Description

The Elemeasure Maximum Demand Controller (MDC) is an intelligent energy monitoring and control device that helps industries reduce electricity demand charges by monitoring load consumption in real-time and automatically controlling non-essential loads when the demand approaches preset limits. It is designed for accurate, reliable, and efficient energy management in industrial and commercial facilities.
