Industrial Applications

1. Extrusion Machine Heater Burnout Detection

Integrates directly with Omron digital temperature controllers to monitor electrical current flow to heater bands. By detecting minute drops in current indicative of a burned-out element, it prevents cold spots during continuous plastic extrusion.

Problem Solved

Eliminates defective products and equipment jams caused by undetected heater failures in plastic molding operations.

2. Industrial Drying Oven Overcurrent Monitoring

Measures the electrical current drawn by standard heating elements in an industrial drying oven. Using its 1:400 turns ratio, the sensor provides accurate secondary current feedback to the main control panel.

Problem Solved

Ensures resistive heating elements operate securely within safety margins, preventing thermal runaway and alerting maintenance teams to degraded coils before catastrophic failure.

3. Environmental Chamber Temperature Control Systems

Installed directly into the control panels of sophisticated climate test chambers alongside an E5AC/E5AK controller. The CT continuously measures up to 50A of input current to dynamically verify heater operation during precise thermal cycling.

Problem Solved

Identifies partial heater failures that would otherwise cause the testing chamber to deviate from strict temperature profile specifications.
