LumaSense Technologies, Inc. LumaSMART® Temperature Controllers

The most critical parameter for monitoring transformers is temperature. The life of the transformer is directly related to the life of the insulating paper inside the transformer. The life of insulating paper is directly related to the temperature it is exposed to. The highest temperature on the winding is the winding hot spot (WHS),and the insulation paper is most likely to break first. Traditional methods can only simulate or calculate this temperature,but cannot directly measure it. Lumassense Technologies,through its Luxtron brand,is a world leader in transformer fiber optic measurement and a leading innovator of new robust technologies. LumaSMART® continues this innovation. LumaSMART® is designed to provide real-time transformer temperature for protection and control at an affordable price. Transformers are critical assets that often bear the brunt of overload conditions and are most likely to be damaged if not properly controlled and protected. The inherent drift-free,calibration-free nature of our patented Fluoroptic® technology makes LumaSMART ideally suited for use in transformers as a reliable and cost-effective means of protecting these valuable assets.,measuring temperature directly in the transformer has several benefits,inc:
