    Measurement technology for efficient production

    The right measurement technology in industrial companies ensures maximum energy efficiency and a reliable energy supply. It records energy flows, detects faults and helps to avoid bottlenecks.

Comprehensive solutions for the manufacturing industry

Increase efficiency and reduce costs

Successful industrial companies manage to increase their efficiency while reducing costs at the same time. 

The use of comprehensive measurement technology is of great importance here. It helps companies to monitor and control their energy consumption. This ensures a safe and reliable energy supply. 

Reducing energy consumption not only cuts operating costs in the long term, but also reduces the company's ecological footprint.

 

 

Challenges in the energy supply

The central tasks for industrial companies in their energy supply include:

 

  • Increase energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions
  • Avoid peak loads, reduce costs
  • Ensure secure power supply
  • Increase fire protection and system protection
    • High energy efficiency makes a significant contribution to reducing operating costs, minimizes the company's environmental impact and supports compliance with increasingly stringent legal regulations, such as energy efficiency laws. 

      By implementing a modern energy management system, companies can monitor and analyze their energy consumption in detail to identify and improve inefficient processes. The early detection of deviations in energy consumption allows improved performance analysis of machines for reliable energy efficiency reports as well as the monitoring of specific energy indicators for efficiency optimization. The data can be seamlessly integrated into an energy management system according to ISO 50001 or an environmental management system. 

      Janitza offers the measurement technology for data acquisition of electrical energy and the corresponding software to process and evaluate the data from energy sources such as electricity, gas and compressed air as well as other process media such as water, nitrogen, etc. in accordance with standards.

      By recording all energy sources and auxiliary materials, the energy-related carbon emissions are made visible, which form the basis for achieving the sustainability targets. Being a part of the supply chain smaller companies are also affected indirectly by the requirements. Further information can be found on the page “Crack the carbon code”.

    • Powerful load management allows energy flows to be controlled intelligently. This allows companies to reduce their peak loads and therefore their energy costs, conserve resources and ensure the stability of their own power grid. 

      Controlling the electrical loads prevents overloads and ensures even distribution. Predictive peak load reduction by means of targeted load control can significantly reduce grid connection costs. Energy distribution systems can be used more efficiently as fewer reserves are required, which also saves costs.  

      In addition, the use of renewable energies is optimally supported by load management, for example in the distribution and control of self-generated energy for charging electric vehicles or the use of an energy storage system. The aim is to consume a large proportion of the energy generated in your own grid.  This reduces energy costs to be paid to the grid operator and makes the use of renewable energy such as photovoltaics more efficient and profitable. 

      Further information can be found on the load management page. 

    • A secure power supply is essential in many industrial sectors, as even brief interruptions or faults in the power supply can cause high costs and damage to systems. To ensure a secure supply of energy, the power quality must be monitored in accordance with standards. Continuous monitoring of power quality and analysis of compensating currents also makes it possible to assess the condition of machines and systems.  

      Unplanned maintenance or production downtimes are avoided through the early detection of leakage currents or load changes. 

      Detailed recordings are used to analyze power quality, plan maintenance and ensure compliance with standards such as DIN EN 61000-2-4, as well as to document and analyze negative changes and improvements in the power supply.

    • With comprehensive differential current monitoring, the functionality of production facilities can be monitored and recorded. This allows for the detection and prevention of fires and failures before they occur, ensuring operational safety.  

      Effective fault localization leads to shorter downtimes and improved availability of the power supply. This helps to minimize unplanned downtimes and production losses.  

      Manual testing of the electrical system can be partially replaced by constant monitoring, including standard-compliant verification of monitoring, as no insulation measurement is then necessary. This reduces costs and production downtime while still ensuring the safety of machinery and equipment. 

      You can find more information on the residual current monitoring page.
