SHEET 01 · Case story

How do electrical temperatures change when loads rise?

The metalworking plant continuously records hotspot temperatures, events and trends, tracking changes overnight, on holidays and during heavy-load periods as reference for on-site inspection and response.

SHEET 02 · Challenge and response

From the site problem to a system approach.

  1. 01The challenge

    Manual inspections may not catch temperature rises caused by nighttime, holiday or load changes.

  2. 02The system approach

    Bring thermal-risk data into a process for continuous monitoring, event alerts and trend tracking.

  3. 03Reported outcome

    Make thermal-risk management traceable over time instead of relying on one-off inspections.

SHEET 03 · Architecture

System architecture and data flow.

Thermal sensors, a Gateway and a platform form a four-layer monitoring architecture with site-level visualization. Source diagrams retain some original Traditional Chinese labels.

SHEET 04 · Wiring and hardware

Wiring diagrams and hardware configuration.

The diagram outlines data flow between site signals, edge devices, the network and the platform. Confirm installation and connection scope before work begins.

SHEET 05 · Before implementation

What to confirm before work begins.

This material describes a planning direction. Confirm site points, installation, report definitions and alert rules against actual site conditions.

  1. 01Site points and signal sources
  2. 02Communication protocols and network conditions
  3. 03Power, panels and installation method
  4. 04Report fields and data definitions
  5. 05Alert rules and responsible people
  6. 06Equipment brands, models and quantities
