Case example: Leakage detection on district heating pipelines
Alarm systems on district heating pipelines use level, temperature, pressure and humidity sensors to detect leaks. The data is sent to the cloud.
Heat2Power BIG replaces the grid power or battery-pack used on these alarm systems, so costly cabling or battery replacements are not needed.
With a higher power availability in comparison to batteries, the system can measure and send data more frequently. Also more sensors and multiple units can be powered with a single Heat2Power BIG.
Heat2Power BIG can also be used on district cooling pipelines by utilizing the temperature difference between the cold pipe and warmer air.
