Power Monitoring
Wireless Power Sensors are specially designed for monitoring all your critical measurements such as voltage, current and more. Using our sensors safeguards your equipment such as pumps, compressors, CNC machines, presses, conveyors and more.
Power Monitoring at Your Fingertips
When you’re responsible for industrial equipment, buildings, or server rooms in your facility, you need to know everything is operating properly. With data from a remote monitoring system, you can better safeguard, optimize, and plan for future changes in your facility. Our remote power monitoring sensors are available for measuring current or AC and DC voltage, enabling you to monitor mains, circuits, machine usage and AC or DC supplies.
Optimize Power Consumption with Wireless Sensors
With Swift Sensors wireless voltage and current sensors, you can monitor for power consumption, surges, fluctuations, and outages and trigger immediate notifications for your maintenance team. In addition, the Swift Sensors wireless sensor console trends your data over time, so you have the insight needed to optimize in multiple dimensions:
- Environmental – Improve efficiency, minimize waste, reduce consumption
- Reliability – Locate and correct chronic problems in complex environments
- Maintenance – Detect variations in consumption from key equipment may indicate impending failures
- Financial – Avoid downtime, react quickly to power events, and plan for expansion to reduce costs and optimize usage
Common Power Measurements
- AC Voltage Meter (0-500V DC)
- DC Voltage Meter (0-30V DC)
- AC Current Meter (Up to 200A AC)
- Transducer Interfaces (4 - 20 mA, 0-10V DC)

How Does Swift Sensors Remote Power Monitoring Work?
Remote Power Monitoring in 3 Easy Steps
Starting at MSRP $100
First, you will need one of our small wireless voltage or current sensors for each piece of equipment or facility you want to monitor. Sensors have a battery life of 6-8 years, communication range of 300 feet, and an IP66 dust-free, water-resistant rating.
MSRP $330
Next, you will need at least one Gateway. One gateway supports up to 150 sensors. Gateways transmit sensor measurements to the cloud via Ethernet, WIFI, or Cellular Modem. Advanced security protocols keep your networks and data safe.
MSRP $65/year/sensor
Then comes the Monitoring and Alert Plan (per sensor) which provides cloud account access with thresholds, notifications, unlimited users, measurement history, reporting, analytics and more. No Contract Required.

Why Choose Swift Sensors
FAQ - Remote Power Monitoring
Swift Sensors remote monitoring and alert system is a simple, low-cost approach to monitor your valuable inventory, equipment, and facilities. Choose from 30 different sensors to measure temperature, humidity, vibration, power, door open/close, water events, and more. Monitor the data directly from your phone and receive an email or text immediately when measurements drift into danger levels. With Swift Sensors, you can be up and running in minutes and protect your assets, equipment, and peace of mind for years.
A remote power monitoring system uses wireless sensors to make voltage or current measurements on main power lines, circuits within your building, or for specific machinery. With a remote power monitoring system, you can learn more about your facility and its power consumption characteristics. Using current sensors, you can measure the actual power consumption at different times of the day, or under different conditions, to look for ways you can reduce expenses. With voltage sensors, you can measure the quality of the power supplied to your facility or machines – looking for surges, sags, or spikes in power quality under different conditions.
Monitoring power consumption at your facility is the first step in optimizing your expenses and saving money. For many businesses, energy costs can be one of the biggest monthly operating expenses. Many business owners and facilities managers are realizing that they can find ways to reduce their overall power expenses with a smart, controlled program. Using remote power monitoring and current sensors, you can identify buildings, areas, circuits, or machines that are using the majority of your power – equipping you with much more data to find problem areas and reduce costs.
In addition to monitoring and optimizing your overall power usage, remote power monitoring sensors help you understand what is going on in your business in general. Sometimes, users struggle knowing when specific equipment or production lines are running at full capacity. Applying sensors to different areas of your manufacturing equipment can give you more insight to help determine how efficient and effective your production process is. In other situations, you may see power surges or drops within your building. Using remote power monitoring sensors, you can debug the situation and understand if certain equipment impacts the overall circuit when powered on.
A remote power monitoring system is comprised of the following components:
- Wireless voltage or current sensors for measuring power consumption or quality
- A Gateway that communicates with each sensor and collects the measurement data periodically and transmits it to a central cloud location.
- Cloud Software where you can view the measurement data, set alarm levels, and define notifications to alert you or your employees when the measurement data starts to show signs of trouble.
Swift Sensors offers multiple power monitoring sensors for measuring voltage or current:
- SS3-617 Wireless AC Current Meter is available in three different ranges – 30A, 100A, and 200A.
- SS3-610 Wireless 0-500V AC Voltage Meter
- SS3-611 0-50V DC Voltage Meter
A remote power monitoring system has three primary components with the following costs:
- Sensors prices range from about $100 to $280 depending on the sensor type and range
- Gateways cost $330
- Monitoring Service is $65/year for each sensor
