Case Study Solutions to voltage sags and interruptions

[J_Meakins]

Goal

To eliminate the impact of sags and interruptions to the extrusion plant’s power systems, thus reducing voltage fluctuations that cause significant production losses.

Solution

PowerLogic ION7550/ION7650 meters that provide plant engineers with the information they need to reduce the number of utility faults, and also reduce sensitivity of customer equipment.

Results

• Waveform capture reveals areas for improvement

• Reduced sensitivity to fluctuations

• Facility avoided power disruption

• No serious production delays
