Industry Background

With the development of society and the sharp increase in electricity consumption, the emergence of modern engineering facilities and equipment, busbars, also known as bus ducts, have gradually replaced traditional cables due to their convenience, energy-saving, high current-carrying capacity, high mechanical strength, flexible installation, and long lifespan. They are widely used in indoor transformer stations, high-rise buildings, and large factories and workshops. Busbars are compressed using copper bars, requiring high thermal dissipation and insulation performance. However, during long-term operation, excessive load or factors such as air oxidation and dust can cause the temperature of the busbar connections to rise, accelerating the aging of the outer insulation and leading to power failures. This can disrupt the stability of the power grid and, in severe cases, result in fire accidents. Therefore, installing a busbar temperature monitoring system is of great importance for preventing safety accidents and ensuring the reliable operation of busbars.

Project Overview

The Nansha aquaculture project is located in Nansha District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, and features the tallest pig shed in Guangdong. The project covers 140 acres of land, with 110 acres allocated for the pig shed building and supporting facilities. With an investment of 1.6 billion yuan, the annual output of pigs can reach 350,000. The project will establish a modern aquaculture demonstration base integrating feed processing, pig breeding, food processing, and environmental protection treatment.

The project consists of 16 busway slots and 887 bus connectors, utilizing our company's AMB300 series busway infrared temperature measurement solution. This is a non-contact infrared temperature measurement device, which can address busway safety temperature measurement and temperature monitoring issues. It uploads the temperature data of each phase in the connectors to the backend in real-time, implementing monitoring and early warning information, alerting management personnel to pay attention to or take necessary preventive measures at the alarm points.

Implementation Plan

3.1 Application Solutions

This busbar slot infrared temperature measurement solution consists of a human-machine HMI touch screen, an infrared temperature measurement module, an infrared collector, and a power module. The system communicates with the local touch screen via RS485 lines, and the touch screen then uploads data to a third-party platform (as shown in the figure below). The system design adheres to the international standard Modbus-RTU transmission protocol, significantly enhancing safety, reliability, and openness. RS-485, as a serial communication interface, boasts long transmission distance, high speed, good level compatibility, flexible and convenient use, low cost, and high reliability. Compared to wireless communication methods, it offers advantages such as lower cost and strong resistance to common-mode interference.
