Development of a temperature anomaly monitoring unit to reduce the burden of introducing temperature monitoring.

SSC Corporation, which manufactures and sells non-contact temperature sensors, has begun the development of the "Temperature Abnormality Monitoring Unit Thermal Watcher (tentative name)."
**Background of Development**
This product was developed in response to customer needs for a low-cost unit that can detect abnormal heating due to terminal loosening within control panels, thereby preventing fires and accidents. Additionally, this product aims to be usable in various applications, not limited to control panels, as it allows for easy implementation of temperature monitoring over a wide area.
**Features of the Product**
The product consists of a sensor and a controller. The sensor uses a thermopile array sensor, which outputs temperature information divided into 32×32 segments within a field of view (90 degrees horizontally and vertically) and sends it to the controller. The controller can connect multiple sensors to one unit, determining whether the maximum temperature of each sensor exceeds a set threshold and issuing an alarm in case of abnormalities. Furthermore, the temperature information from each sensor is output via Modbus RTU communication, considering connections with higher-level devices such as PLCs and PCs.
