Continuous measurement of direct current | Monitoring the power status of river and dam observation equipment
Supports monitoring the power status of river and dam observation equipment. Measures direct current for each circuit, which can be used for remote monitoring and historical verification.
In monitoring direct current, it is important to select appropriate ratings for the target circuit and to have a configuration that can manage a large number of measurement points without difficulty. This is particularly true for observation stations on rivers and dams, as well as remote observation facilities in mountainous areas, where an increase in the number of circuits complicates the verification process. The "iDC-SVS4" continuously measures direct current with sensors that support 30A, 50A, 100A, 250A, and 500A, and sends the measurement data to a monitoring server. Current values, load fluctuations, and past history can be checked remotely, and in combination with monitoring software, it can also respond to notifications based on set thresholds. A single relay device can accommodate up to 1,024 points, allowing for an expansion of the monitoring range from important circuits to numerous circuits. Usage scenarios: - Monitoring direct current in observation stations on rivers and dams, and remote observation facilities in mountainous areas - Checking current values and history of direct power supply circuits for telemetry and communication devices - Confirming inspection targets and notification status before on-site visits Expected effects from implementation: - Understanding current changes over time outside of patrols - Consolidating measurement information from multiple circuits for review - Organizing inspection targets and confirmation details in advance to streamline equipment management We will propose configurations based on monitoring targets, number of circuits, cable diameter, and installation environment.
