New Product Release: Three-Phase Motor Insulation Deterioration Monitoring Module for Continuous Breakdown Prediction Monitoring of Operating Equipment

 
   This new product (model: CPS-MM-LC) is to be used in combination with such CPU module as M2M controller CPS-MCS341-DS1-131 that features built-in data collection and web monitoring functions. We anticipate its prompt use as a continuous monitoring device for equipment maintenance in which the included dedicated ZCT (Zero-phase-sequence Current Transformer) can be installed to the three-phase motor (induction motor) circuits of existing equipment such as pumps, compressors, A/C fans, metalworking machines and transport equipment, etc.
　Because planned periodic motor inspections are normally performed with equipment stopped, it is difficult to predict when a sudden motor breakdown might occur. Until now, it has also been necessary to disconnect motor wiring during inspections of equipment with inverters.

　This new product will eliminate the need for equipment to be stopped during inspections thanks to its ability to measure the insulation resistance of operating three-phase motors. We anticipate its
