Acrel's AMB200 device provides real-time temperature and humidity monitoring at busbar connectors, ensuring safe and reliable operation of dense AC busways.

Overview

The AMB200 is typically installed at the connector of dense AC busbars and is designed to monitor temperature and humidity at the connection points. It ensures the safe operation of busways by detecting abnormal temperature rises that could indicate loose connections or overloads, which are critical for preventing equipment damage or fire hazards .

Key Features

• Real-Time Monitoring: Displays voltage, current, power, energy, power quality, and switch status on a 10-inch touch screen .
• Temperature Measurement: Measures multiple points at the busbar connector, including single-point or multi-point configurations, with options for contact or non-contact infrared measurement .
• Humidity Monitoring: Tracks environmental conditions at the connector to prevent moisture-related issues .
• Communication Interfaces: Supports RS485, RJ45 (Modbus protocol), and LoRa, allowing integration with centralized monitoring systems .
• Alarm and Configuration: Device alarms and communication parameters can be configured directly on the touch screen for immediate response to abnormal conditions .
• Installation: Mounted on DIN 35 mm rails or fixed on the busbar cover plate for secure placement .

Applications

• Energy Management: Monitors energy consumption and power quality of end loads in smart track busways .
• Safety Assurance: Real-time temperature monitoring at busbar connectors and plug-in box interfaces ensures reliable operation and prevents overheating .
• Data Integration: Collected data can be uploaded to a monitoring system for remote supervision and analysis, supporting predictive maintenance .

Additional Devices

• AMB100 / AMB110: Installed in busbar start boxes and plug-in boxes for voltage, current, and temperature monitoring .
• AMB300: Mounted on dense AC bus duct cover plates for infrared non-contact temperature and humidity measurement .
