  1. Defending Data Centres Using Teledyne FLIR Thermal Imaging

    On the left is a close-up of a translucent, white Ethernet cable. On the right, large, white text reads "How Can Thermal Cameras Aid in Telecoms & Data Centres Industries?" As we come to rely on the internet, data networks, AI, and cloud-based systems more and more, it’ll become increasingly important to ensure the reliability and efficacy of data centres. Unplanned downtime can be very costly both with respect to loss of earnings and business reputation. A Teledyne FLIR case study estimates that data centre companies lose $8000 every minute a plant is down due to an unexpected failure.[1] Spotting potential issues before they become catastrophic faults could eliminate unplanned downtime. Understanding this, Teledyne FLIR offers a range of thermal imaging solutions specifically for this purpose. Continue reading →

  4. Tech Tip: Druck Explains How to Calculate Loop Transmitter Systems’ Requirements & Limitations

    Transmitters emit current loop signal outputs of 4 to 20mA. Industrial systems often utilise transmitters with 4 to 20mA sensor signals because they provide noise immunity, support use with long cable lengths, and require only two-wire connectivity. However, if all the factors of a loop transmitter system are not taken into account the system could fail or have limited functionality. Fortunately, Druck has produced a paper that offers instructions and tips on how to calculate the requirements and limitations of loop transmitter systems. Continue reading →
