Electric Cabinet Monitor
Prevent Injury From Arc Flash
Reduce Unplanned Downtime
Know The Health of
Your Electric Equipment
The UE-ECM 586 continuously monitors
enclosed electrical equipment for the onset
of corona, tracking and arcing. Utilizing a
0-10 VDC or a 4-20 mA output proportional
to the received signal and a heterodyned
output, it will warn in real-time as soon as
any of these conditions happen.
HOW IT WORKS:
Corona, Tracking and Arcing generate ions. The ionization process generates ultrasonic emissions that
are sensed by the UE-ECM 586. Set a threshold level for ultrasounds that exceed ambient noise levels to
signal an alarm. It's that simple. In addition you can use the heterodyned output to record the event once
ultrasound levels exceed the threshold level.
THE RISKS:
Corona exists above 1000 Volts, arcing can occur at any voltage, low medium or high. Tracking can exist
at medium or high voltages. Any one of these conditions can lead to flashover and failure if left unattended. The UE-ECM 586 can alert operators of the presence of these conditions to prevent equipment outage
and save $$$$.
Corona, arcing and tracking can also produce an arc flash event. Arc flash kills and burns thousands
of people a year. The tragedy of an operator being seriously maimed, burned or killed can be avoided by
letting the UE-ECM 586 warn of these conditions.
