K6PM-TH

K6PM-TH

Thermography-based Condition Monitoring

K6PM-TH measures and monitor the surface temperature through up to 31 connected infra-red cameras, as a continuous thermography.

The technology is designed to monitor facility and equipment panels, preventing the risk of overheating that might be due to bad connections, loose wiring or lack of ventilation. The device are also suitable to monitor the temperature of surfaces which temperature should not exceed a given threshold (hot air ducts).
 
The proprietary algorithm running in the controller allows to:
  • Monitor and predict temperature trend, signalling alarm anytime the temperature of a given area is above the set threshold or is expected to reach critical value in near future
  • Consider the differential temperature trend (between environment and measured object), signalling alarms only if critical conditions occur.
  • automatically set the temperature threshold of each area (every camera divides the monitored area in 16 quadrants), based on baseline conditions
The device can either be used as stand-alone, or integrated in a wider solution, enabling functions such as:
  • E-mail notifications in case of warning/alarm,
  • Remote monitoring
  • Interaction with custom applications and MQTT server.

Feature

K6PM is a reliable partner to monitor critical facility panels, as well as equipment panels along their entire life (development, validation, FAT and after installation).

Particularly suitable for those application where the panel is located right next to a machine generating intensive heat (furnaces, ovens, molding machinery).

Condition monitoring devices can be configured with a single tool

Easy three-step configuration The Condition Monitoring Configuration Tool allows for batch configuration of a wide range of condition monitoring devices, such as those for monitoring motors, temperatures, insulation, and heaters. It can be used without any special skills, reducing training effort

Easy three-step configuration

The Condition Monitoring Configuration Tool allows for batch configuration of a wide range of condition monitoring devices, such as those for monitoring motors, temperatures, insulation, and heaters. It can be used without any special skills, reducing training effort. Setup can be completed in just three steps: communications setup, initial setup, and trigger setup.*1 With its high operability, the tool boosts on-site productivity as well.

Solutions

Stand Alone installation (Without PLC)

This simple solution allows to:

  • Monitor the status of the motor through the onboard LED, or through to the Condition Monitoring Software
  • Setup the controllers through the Condition Monitoring Software, provided with the device
  • Interface the K6PM with any external I/O devices (dig. Output)

Stand Alone installation (with PLC)

This solution enables, in addition of the previous solution, to:

  • Monitor the status of the motor through to the Condition Monitoring Software, running on a PC which is connected through a PLC
  • Use the PLC remote-connection to reach the K6PM for remote monitoring and setup
  • Trigger, through the PLC, actions following any warning/alarm detected by K6PM

Notifications and remote monitoring - without PLC

This solution, using Omron RT1 as a gateway, enables:

  • e-mail/SMS notifications in case anomalies are detected by K6PM
  • secure connection (managed by RT1) to cloud, either via LAN or via 4G connection
  • secure connection for remote monitoring and setup of K6PM, using the Condition Monitoring software provided with the controller

Notifications and remote monitoring – with PLC

This solution, using any PLC and Omron RT1 as a gateway, enables:

  • e-mail/SMS notifications in case anomalies are detected by K6PM
  • secure connection (managed by RT1) to cloud, either via LAN or via 4G connection
  • secure connection for remote monitoring and setup of K6PM, using the Condition Monitoring software provided with the controller

Connection to MQTT server

This solution allows to connect several K6PM devices to any MQTT server, enabling several features such as the interface with other services.
