Maximize Resilience in Mission Critical Assets: How Predictive Maintenance is Becoming a Standard Approach
Explore how Continuous Thermal Monitoring (CTM) enhances critical electrical equipment reliability.
Identify electrical hotspots before they cause outages in low voltage transformers
Electrical hotspots in Low Voltage Transformers are a symptom of overheating joints or connections that have the potential to cause power outages
Constant heating and cooling of electrical assets causes joint friction
Poorly fitted or loose connections result in higher resistance
Vibration or mechanical stress on joints can loosen them over time
Heat within joints and connections can increase to the point of failure
LV Transformer Brochure
Protect low voltage transformers with continuous thermal monitoring sensor technology
Sensor looms connects back to the MCC Datacard (MMD), which collects and transmits the Sensor temperature data, and activates alarms when a fault is detected. The MMD is housed in an external enclosure, along with the LEDs to provide local alarm status.
1. Sensor loom continuously monitors both the Voltage Input and Voltage Output connections
2. Sensor loom continuously monitors coil tap change connections
Features
The Low Voltage Transformer solution is suitable for both new build and retro-fit installation, and is also OEM vendor neutral.
Simple kit form
LV Transformer sensors from Exertherm are supplied in a kit form to make installation as simple as possible.
Continuous monitoring
Permanently installed sensors are fit-and-forget technology that continuously monitors the temperature of critical joints or connections.
High efficiency
This non-contact and non-powered solution creates it's own power supply from within the asset to monitor critical bus and joint connections.
Real-time data
Once installed the sensors work 24x7, 365 days a year to continuously monitor your critical electrical assets and provide condition data.
