Power Monitoring
For years Neptune has been asked to do the power monitoring of the individual devices connected to each outlet – but it just wasn't possible without breaking your bank. Now it's here and with comes tons of benefits.

For many, the cost of the electricity to run a successful aquarium is a major concern in their household. Even for those where electricity is cheap, Neptune believes most aquarists care a great deal about their energy consumption and its effect on the environment. Ironically, our energy usage could be directly connected to excess greenhouse gasses, the warming of the oceans, and the bleaching of the corals!

However, armed with the right information Neptune believes aquarists will not only be able to make operating and purchase decisions that will save them hundreds of dollars a year, but they will also be able to reduce their carbon footprint.

Built-In 1LINK and 24VDC Ports
This Energy Bar has a built-in 100W, 24VDC power supply that can control up to three Neptune Systems 1LINK products like the WAV and DOS. It also includes two switchable 24V DC on/off outlets that are compatible with any 24V device under 30W and Neptune Systems 24V accessories like our Practical Multi-purpose Utility Pump (PMUP).

Individual Outlet Indicator LED
Each Energy Bar AC outlet, as well as the two 24VDC accessory ports, has their own status LED. This LED tells you when that outlet is energized. The LED will also blink rapidly if a device is plugged in that exceeds the current capability for that outlet.

Alarms and Decisions Based on Power
Since the Apex is receiving continual power usage data from the Energy Bar 832, it can be configured to send you notifications when a device is not using power as it should. An example would be a return pump showing no power consumption when the outlet is on or a skimmer whose power consumption will show differently when its airline is clogged when compared to normal operation. These high and low limits are completed customizable by individual outlet. You can even use this power data to control other devices.

All Outlets Relay Switched
Times have changed and it is fairly uncommon now for aquariums to have AC devices that must be cycled on and off continuously. This means that Neptune could now switch all AC outlets to relay switching since there is no need to have soft start and there is no concern for the noise of the relay.

New Mounting System for Energy Bar 832
The Energy Bar 832 has an innovative attachment system that makes it easy to mount them up and also give convenient access to all the connections. The Energy Bar 832 has a mounting bracket you screw to the wall with just three screws and then the Energy Bar slides down onto the bracket.
