February 6, 2017 - German manufacturer Delphin Technology introduced a Custom Measurement Case based on the Expert Logger series with an integrated OPC UA interface. The measurement case combines two important applications to make it a practical device for manufacturing operations: collecting Energy Consumption data and performing Fault Analysis.
- For Energy Audits, Delphin’s new measurement case is able to acquire Energy Consumption data, perform energy analysis functions, and store data.
- For Condition Monitoring, Delphin can analyze faults in machines and process signals.
Delphin’s mobile measurement case is available in a range of different configurations to suit the user's specific application.
For remote monitoring applications, the case is also equipped with an OPC UA interface and can transfer measurement data directly to the cloud.
For energy monitoring applications, the case can be equipped with up to three independent measurement circuits to measure power. This enables users to simultaneously record, view and store the energy consumption of several machines. Depending on specific requirements, power measurement units can be used to record Real, Reactive, and Apparent power, as well as Voltages, Currents and Power Factors (cos phi).
Current/voltage converters can also be used to acquire peak values or to analyze networks for diagnostic purposes. For this purpose, the case has eight synchronous digital/frequency inputs for acquiring energy-meter or flow readings. Electrical connection is via pluggable screw terminals or special connectors according to specific customer requirements.
