The most common cause of electrical failures and arc flash incidents is poor busbar:busbar joints and cable terminations.

The Problem: Detecting electrical failure

The effects of constant thermal cycling on the joints

Heat, stress and vibration compromise the joints

Joints can become loose and corrode over time

Reducing conductivity and can result in power failures

Permanent Infrared Hotspot Detection

Exertherm® Alarm Relay Module XL (ARM XL)

The Exertherm Alarm Relay Module XL (ARM XL) device is ideal for those who wish to continuously thermally monitor critical electrical circuits, 100% of operational time, rather than rely on one day per year thermal inspections. It is designed for busy engineers who require a simple monitoring system to just inform when and where a fault is detected, without yet another suite of software.

Benefits

Reduce the likelihood of electrical failures and improve operational stability with 24x7 monitoring.

Reduce human interaction with potentially faulty assets to increase personnel and on-site safety.

Reduce electrical fire or explosion risk resulting from arc flash due to compromised electrical assets.

Reduced the need for additional costs and the unnecessary intrusion of unplanned maintenance.

The Exertherm® Permanent Infrared Hotspot Detection Solution provides an early warning of potentially compromised electrical assets before they fail, causing unplanned facility outages. The Permanent Infrared Hotspot Detection Solution provides protection from thermal asset changes where the eye can’t see and the hands can't reach. Our unique ‘fit and forget’ 24x7 electrical infrastructure monitoring technology gives you the peace of mind that your assets are running safely.

Features

Identify potentially faulty bus duct joints before a more serious problem occurs

Permanent installation

Permanently installed sensors for busbar joints mean you can fit and forget, only needing to return when a potential issue is flagged up.

Super efficient

This non-contact and non-powered solution creates it's own power supply from within the asset to monitor critical bus and joint connections.

Lifetime guarantee

We're so confident with the resilience built into Exertherm technology that we provide a lifetime guarantee on our sensor hardware.

Once installed our sensors work 24x7, 365 days a year to continuously monitor your critical electrical assets and provide condition data.
