Unique Challenges
Every electrical wire in our home and workplace is connected to a massive network of power lines, people and power generation facilities. The electrical power we use everyday is often taken for granted (until a power outage) because of the reliability designed in to energy management facilities and systems.
Load dispatchers and control room supervisors rely on critical real-time process data in order to make good power distribution decisions. Map boards and displays combine to deliver this information. The sections below provide a brief list of the more prominent energy management applications and the customers we've helped.
Popular Applications
| Frequency deviation/System time/Local time control room displays | |
|---|---|
| APPLICATION |
Power monitoring equipment produced by companies like Arbiter, True Time and Datum collect real-time process information for delivery to devices such as displays. Large digital displays provide control room operators real-time data such as frequency deviation, system time, local time and more. |
| PRODUCT | |
| Peak usage displays | |
| APPLICATION |
Peak usage displays provide real-time feedback of demand. Programmable color change can be used to further alert operators of a potentially critical situation. An optional relay output can be used to sound an audible alert. |
| PRODUCT | |
| Temperature displays | |
| APPLICATION |
Turbines, generators and boilers produce significant heat in the process of generating power. It is critical to monitor the temperature of these systems to prevent failure. Large digital displays provide real-time process data to control room operators. Programmable color change provides dynamic annunciation – data displayed in green, good state, red, situation requires immediate attention. |
| PRODUCT | |
| Systems message displays | |
| APPLICATION |
Dynamic messaging keeps control room employees informed and operating efficiently. Show critical process information, safety and general messaging to inform, alert and motivate. |
