Continuous thermal monitoring system: Exertherm

11:19

Exertherm, a continuous thermal monitoring system, allows for locating hot spots within electrical gear using a permanent thermal scanning solution. Within an electrical distribution system, there will be hundreds to thousands of electrical connections. These connections have the potential of being improperly installed or become loose over time which result in unexpected downtime. • For a related video on infrared scans for electrical maintenance click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seu-fnkzi6U&list=PL8XobqCtN9Z9zmxXF91EJpX2k8FjdRIEb&index=4 To minimize the risk unplanned downtime, the industry standard is to schedule thermographic audits across a site, including hazardous areas, which are labor-intensive procedures. The result is just a snapshot of connection health despite the costs and risks. Application Engineer Yzhi Alexander discusses how, with advancements in sensor technology, a continuous thermal monitoring system can now be installed within critical electrical equipment. A 24x7 thermal monitoring system can reduce the potential of unexpected downtime. In turn, this data can be uploaded to Eaton’s Brightlayer Industrial platform for trend analysis of electrical equipment which can help improve reliability and extend equipment life while keeping workers safe. • Learn more about the remote monitoring application: https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/digital/brightlayer/brightlayer-industrial-suite/digital-brightlayer-brightlayer-industrial-suite-remote-monitoring.html?wtredirect=www.eaton.com/industrialremotemonitoring Thank you for watching one of our many educational videos on the topic of power systems.
