Electrical Safety for Food and Packaging Machines

Food and Packing Machines

Like the packaging industry, the food industry is a downstream economic branch where major parts of the products generated are processed. These include breweries, dairies, cooling systems, food manufacturing (or food processing), and many more. The fully automated production must not be interrupted by minor electrical problems. This is why early detection of potential faults is vital in order to allow them to be repaired or the system to be shut down, specifically when it is convenient for production. By incorporating ground fault detectors and Line Isolation monitors (LIM), the food industry can enhance its fault detection capabilities and maintain continuous production. By identifying these problems at their onset, it can prevent situations from escalating to the point where a ground fault breaker is needed to intervene. Bender fault current monitoring devices allow quick and early detection and forwarding of alarms with details of fault locations.
