Adding Smart Condition Monitoring Sensors to Your PLC Control Systems Delivers Data in Real Time

Condition monitoring of critical components on machines delivers enormous benefits to productivity in a plant.  Rather than have a motor, pump, or compressor unexpectedly fail and the machine be inoperable until a replacement part is installed, condition monitoring of those critical pieces on the machine can provide warning signs that something is about to go terribly wrong. Vibration measurements on rotating equipment can detect when there is imbalance or degrade on rolling bearing elements.

How is it Possible to Check Thermal Stress in an Electrical Conductor?

How is it Possible to Check Thermal Stress in an Electrical Conductor?

Among the intrinsic characteristics of a cable or an electrical conductor, there are two values which are essential for its sizing:

• The maximum temperature of the core in steady-state which allows calculating the ampacity.
• The maximum temperature of the core in short circuit, temperature beyond which the deterioration of the insulation begins.

For standardized cables, these values are imposed by the standard, for example, 90° C and 250° C respectively for cables insulated with EPR/XLPE.
