m5

Base solution for the smallest applications

The advances of the energy revolution are meaning the number of systems and devices to monitor is increasing. Stations become smaller and need to be equipped with telecontrol technology. It is at this point that needs such as functionality and practicability have to be reconciled with the constantly growing challenges in regard to IT security as well as economic and physical restrictions. The m5 with all the necessary basic telecontrol functions offers solutions for numerous application areas, and its particularly compact size and low price are impressive features.

Application areas of the m5

• Feed-in management for small feeders
  (e.g. future-oriented substitute for radio ripple control)
• Direct marketing and interconnection of virtual power plants
• Monitoring and control unit for infrastructure applications,
• pipe-bound media and the provision of contracting services
• Charging management for battery storage and e-mobility

Depending on the application, additional components such as external relays may be required.

The m5 takes IT security seriously

Like the series5e telecontrol technology devices, the m5 stands for high IT security. It enables extensive IT security measures, as required in the current requirement profiles of the BDEW whitepaper and BSI recommendations. From the modern Linux kernel to extended firewall rules with granular activation through to user administration with free role assignment (RBAC): The m5 allows an outstandingly high level of IT security.
