Potentially costly revenue loss and operational disruption due to power quality issues – the LINAX PQ series of power quality monitoring systems
Despite the differences, the industrial production of assembly lines has common essential characteristics: they remain in continuous operation in the facility, which means a lot of start-up costs and time, power quality problems can cause lost revenue, and there can be interruptions or interruptions due to small fluctuations in power quality. If the production process of a product is interrupted, the loss of productivity and the loss of product can cause a huge economic burden. For example, a voltage dip in a paper mill can cost $250,000 a full day of production time, while a five-cycle outage at a glass manufacturing plant can cost at least $200,000. It is estimated that in the United States, 3% of every sale is spent on power quality issues. 75% of power quality issues occur inside customer facilities and require power engineers and electricians to diagnose and resolve these issues themselves.
Unfortunately, as load equipment becomes more sensitive to power quality events and utilities become more dispersed, the power quality event percentage will only increase. For facility managers and engineers, understanding and managing power system infrastructure is critical to ensuring production reliability, optimizing equipment performance, and controlling rising energy costs. **The power quality monitoring system Linax PQ series can potentially detect deterioration in power quality before problems arise.
The Linax PQ series of power quality monitoring systems from the German GMC-i Group enables users to proactively monitor their power systems, potentially identifying and correcting problems before they occur. In addition, with the help of proprietary companion software, the system can quickly identify the direction or ** of the problem before and after it occurs, thus aiding in troubleshooting.
