Why monitor low-voltage power distribution?
Modern buildings and facilities depend on a reliable power supply – from building access and office IT to industrial equipment. Power failures not only interrupt operations, but can also cause significant damage. If a circuit breaker fails, the protection and reliability of the downstream power supply are at risk. In data centers, even one minute of downtime can cost up to $9,000.
The SENTRON software portfolio, including SENTRON Powercenter 3000 and SENTRON Powermanager, monitors power distribution in low-voltage systems. Analyzing the collected data reveals patterns that indicate malfunctions or impending device failures. This allows operators to take corrective action early, for example by adjusting maintenance intervals. Condition-based maintenance can reduce maintenance costs by up to 25%, increase productive time by up to 15%, and reduce unplanned technical failures by up to 70%.
