Milesight CTH01: 12-Channel LoRaWAN Energy Monitoring Hub

What Is the Milesight CTH01?

The CTH01 is a LoRaWAN-based smart power monitoring hub designed for industrial and commercial facilities to optimize energy efficiency. With 12-channel capacity, it can simultaneously monitor up to 4 three-phase or 12 single-phase circuits. Non-invasive installation, high-precision analytics, and predictive maintenance capabilities help facilities cut energy costs and improve operational efficiency.

Zero-Downtime Installation: Magnetic and Universal Compatibility

One of the CTH01's standout features is its ability to deploy without interrupting electrical operations. Magnetic voltage probes snap directly onto breaker screws in seconds. For current measurement, split-core transformers clamp around conductors without cutting cables or de-energizing circuits.

This approach accelerates deployment while eliminating installation errors. The hub also integrates different current ranges (from 100A to 4000A) in a single unit. RJ11 plug-and-play connectors provide flexibility without requiring specialized hardware purchases.

High-Precision Analytics and Real-Time Diagnostics

CTH01 operates at 8 kHz sampling frequency, recording energy data with ±1% accuracy per IEC 62053-21 standards. This goes far beyond simple consumption tracking.

The device captures harmonic distortion (THD), voltage unbalance, and power factor anomalies in real time. These insights enable proactive monitoring of electrical infrastructure health and early detection of equipment stress before failures occur.

Effortless Management: Bluetooth and Remote Calibration

Setup and management happen via the Milesight Toolbox mobile app over Bluetooth. Configuration is completed from a safe distance without opening the electrical panel.

If a current transformer is wired with reversed polarity, software correction eliminates the need for costly rewiring. An LED status indicator provides instant visual feedback on device status and alarms.

Cost Reduction in Commercial Facilities

Large commercial buildings often suffer from invisible energy waste—systems running during idle hours, poorly tuned HVAC, and standby equipment consuming significant portions of total consumption.

CTH01's 12-channel visibility uncovers this "dark" energy waste. Management can take data-driven actions: launch efficiency programs, optimize maintenance schedules, and achieve measurable cost savings. In offices, retail chains, and co-working spaces, CTH01 delivers transparent cost allocation using real voltage measurement, replacing bulky traditional meters with a single, high-precision hub.

Predictive Maintenance in Industrial Plants

Harmonic distortion and voltage unbalance are early warnings of equipment stress. CTH01 captures these signatures at 8 kHz before bearings fail and production lines stop. Maintenance becomes predictive, not reactive.

The electrical infrastructure transforms into a self-diagnosing system. Industrial facilities can schedule planned maintenance based on these insights and prevent unexpected downtime.

Solar and Energy Storage Management

Buildings with rooftop solar face dynamic energy balancing challenges. CTH01 tracks imported and exported power separately, managing the interplay between solar generation, battery storage, and grid consumption. Maximize self-consumption and track feed-in tariffs with precision.

Scalable Deployment with Milesight Development Platform

CTH01 integrates with Milesight's enterprise IoT device management platform. Plug-and-play setup, bulk device configuration, over-the-air updates (OTA), remote access, and device sharing simplify large-scale deployments.

Open API and Webhook support enable seamless data exchange with external systems. This allows CTH01 to integrate smoothly into existing energy management or building automation systems.

Distributed Energy Monitoring: Integration with CT Series

While CTH01 provides hub-level monitoring from the main distribution board, Milesight's CT Series current transformers (CT10x, CT3xx) are designed for distributed load monitoring.

CT10x and CT3xx are self-powered devices operating with up to 3.3 kHz accuracy, performing real-time ampere-hour calculations. Non-invasive installation and maintenance-free operation deliver energy visibility across the entire facility.

Together, these devices create a unified LoRaWAN ecosystem. From the main hub to individual branches, facility-wide energy consumption is monitored with granular precision.

Technical Specifications and Compliance

CTH01 operates on 12 V DC power with a maximum consumption of 5.8 W. Voltage measurement range is 100–500 V AC, and current range is standard up to 1000 A (customizable to 4000 A).

The device operates at 50–60 Hz frequency, -20°C to +70°C temperature range, and IP30 protection class. DIN 35 rail mounting or magnetic mounting options are available. It holds ETL (UL/CSA), CE (RED & LVD), FCC, and SRRC certifications.

LoRaWAN protocol supports CN470, IN865, RU864, EU868, US915, AU915, KR920, and AS923 frequency bands. OTAA and ABP modes with Class C operation are available.

Accessories and Compatible Devices

Accessories compatible with CTH01 include magnetic nuts (MN1605), RJ11 current transformers (RCT-RJ11), and Rogowski coils (RRC-RJ11). These are available in measurement ranges from 100A to 4000A.

Compatible devices include Milesight sensors such as TS301, TS302, TS201, TS201-TH, and TS602. A CTH01-centered energy monitoring network can be expanded with additional Milesight IoT devices.
