Sensor for ambient temperature, relative humidity and dew point
Applications
- Condition monitoring for medium-voltage switchgear in conjunction with the reader (AMS01), the antenna (AN-F1) for partial discharge detection by UHF and the passive SAW wireless temperature sensor (TSA-EV11)
- Measuring the ambient temperature, relative humidity and dew point
- Compatible with ANSI and IEC medium-voltage standards
- New installation or retrofitting of medium-voltage switchgears
Special features
- Easy to install and commission
- Maintenance-free
- Comprehensive data communication (local, remote, Modbus®, SCADA, IIoT service)
Description
The advanced monitoring solution for monitoring partial discharge and temperature in medium-voltage switchgear uses surface acoustic wave and ultra high frequency sensing technology. It features an integrated IIoT platform to improve the safety, efficiency and durability of medium-voltage switchgear.
By using condition monitoring systems, approx. 75 % of disruptions can be prevented through early fault detection, thus reducing both maintenance costs and intervals.
The EXT-ENV-SENS environmental sensor is connected to the reader (AMS01) by cable and monitors the ambient temperature, relative humidity and dew point of medium voltage switchgear. The monitoring of partial discharges is optimised using these values.
The sensor can only be used in metal spaces such as control cabinets. It is IEC 62271 compliant and can therefore be used in switchgear worldwide without a licence.
