Intelligent monitoring of surge protection systems

ImpulseCheck from Phoenix Contact is claimed to be the first intelligent assistance system for monitoring mains surge protection systems to be available on the market.

Intelligent monitoring of surge protection systems

The condition of the system and surge protection is recorded on a continuous basis thanks to the real-time measurement of electromagnetic interferences and surge currents. This makes the remaining service life expectancy (state of health) of the protective devices transparent so maintenance becomes more predictable.

The cloud-based analysis of the determined measured values provides completely new automated processes. Digital benefits and services, such as the connection to site information or local weather data, can be implemented easily via cloud integration. Automated order processing of replacement plugs or the simple export of measured values for your own evaluations are therefore possible. Real-time monitoring ensures the state of the surge protective devices is always known. A status report can be created at the touch of a button at any time.
