Wireless Bus bar Temperature Monitor

Home / Wireless Bus bar Temperature Monitor

Challenges In Industry :

  • Failure in Power distribution system due to Temperature can result in loss of productivity and even fire or explosion
  • Generation of heat is an indication of loss of energy and wastage of power
  • Heat also contributes in shortening life of an equipment
  • Since contact resistance measurement would be dangerous it is necessary to use isolated sensors

Wireless Bus bar Temperature Monitor System :

  • WBTMS integrates online temperature measurement, data collection, data analysis and control function
  • WBTMS consists of :
    • Sensors ( Wireless Temperature transmitters – BBS350)
    • Receiver (Wireless Signal Receiving & Monitoring Unit – BBC969)
    • Software (Processing, Alarming & Reporting Software – AmpSCADA ** **Optional
  • Bus Bar Sensors :
    • Digital Sensors
    • Measures temperature in wide range : -40 deg C to 125 deg C
    • Transmission Interval : Every 30 sec to 300 sec
    • Transmission Range : Upto 15-20 mtrs (Can be increased upto 4 kms with additional hardware)
  • Receiver :
    • Receiver BBC969 is installed in the control panel
    • One unit monitors 9 sensors
    • Alarm Mode : Buzzer, Relay for Hooter & Relay for CB
    • Depending on number of sensors, a series of BBC969 controller can connect in daisy chain on Modbus
  • Software (Optional) :
    • Processes the sensors’s information from Modbus
    • Records in textual log file
    • Display Alerts, Trend Charts & generate customize reports
    • Admin User can set ALerts or generate reports

Application Area :

  • Input & Output bus bar of Switchgear
  • Circuit breaker contact
  • Bearing & Winding of the motor
  • High temperature air outlets
  • Power distribution Transformers

Solution :

  • Monitoring of Transformer Oil level, Oil Temperature & Bus Bar Temperature :
