The PQube 3 provides a rare combination of power and environmental monitoring in a sleek form factor for use in a broad range of industries, including semiconductor tools, data centers, industrial equipment, utilities, and medical systems. PQube 3 delivers the right information in real-time to the user’s inbox, enabling ongoing system health monitoring and rapid root cause analysis when needed most.
PQube 3 features and benefits include:
- System failure prevention – perform graceful shutdowns to prevent costly production mistakes
- Independent judge – identify where faults originate and prevent finger pointing
- Decreasing downtime – quickly identify root cause of faults before they affect customers
- Predictive maintenance – detect abnormalities before they cause problems
- Reputation safeguarding – don’t get blamed for issues beyond your control
“PQube 3 has saved us a tremendous amount of time and manpower in troubleshooting,” said Cliff Sims, Lead Electrical & Control Technician of Henry County Water Authority in Georgia. “I’m able to see power abnormalities immediately from my desk-top or mobile device and dispatch the correct response personnel. This has saved us money by allowing us to get ahead of several electrical problems before they became major issues at our water and sewer treatment plant. Since we have so much equipment to maintain, the ability to receive real-time information is extremely valuable. Additionally, we can also safely monitor current draw on motors without ever opening a 480 volt cabinet.”
“We are honored to be selected from among over 150 product entries by a panel of industry expert judges,” said Barry Tangney, COO of Power Standards Lab. “This award provides further market validation that PQube 3, and its expanded family of products, offer exceptional value to our customers by helping them perform rapid root cause analysis for mission-critical applications.”
