Wireless Temperature Monitoring Of Electrical Enclosures
T
he heartbeat of a building is its electrical distribution system, which regulates water pressure, climate, communication and lighting. Without this heartbeat, all services stop—along with the business conducted in the facility. Delta T Alert, a patented device developed by Delta T Engineering, magnetically attaches to electrical equipment covers, monitoring the Delta T (temperature differential) between the interior of an electrical enclosure and the ambient temperature of the room in which the enclosure is located. According to the manufacturer, whether your panels are in a hot switchgear room in Manhattan, a frigid warehouse in Alaska or a comfortably cool data center in Tuscaloosa, the Delta T Alert monitoring system will warn of excessive temperature rise within an electrical enclosure, well before serious problems occur. Users can adjust the device to collect data on a daily basis, at chosen time intervals. The information is then transmitted wirelessly to an onsite computer for analysis and trending.

The future of manufacturing is in the hands of today’s young people. Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajigs, the foundation of the Fabricators & Manufacturers Association Int’l is focused on securing the future of manufacturing, innovation and invention in North America. This happens when young people are introduced to the joy and pride of “tinkering”. When a young person learns they can make something useful and practical with their own hands, they’ve taken the first step to a career. Hundreds of students learn this each year at NBT summer manufacturing camps. High school grads can apply for NBT scholarships to study at technical schools or colleges and prepare for the highly skilled manufacturing jobs of the future.
