Acrel Wireless Temperature Monitoring Solution Empowers Mining Electrical Safety in Peru — Switchgear Manufacturers Can Bundle Smart Temperature Monitoring as a Value-Added Selling Point

Release Date: September 4, 2026

   

Acrel Electric Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 300286.SZ) has launched a packaged wireless temperature monitoring value-added solution tailored to the pain points of frequent busbar overheating in switchgear cabinets under heavy-load and high-humidity conditions in Peruvian mines. This solution enables switchgear manufacturers (OEMs/panel builders) to integrate the smart temperature monitoring system as a differentiated selling point, bundled into their switchgear products and sold together to end mining and industrial customers.

    

1. Mining Electrical Safety Pain Point: Busbar Overheating — The “Invisible Killer”

    

As one of the world’s most important mineral-producing countries, Peru’s mining electrical equipment operates year-round in harsh environments of heavy loads, high humidity, and heavy dust. Electrical connection points inside switchgear cabinets — such as busbar joints, circuit breaker contacts, and cable connections — are prone to overheating due to prolonged high-current operation and increased contact resistance, making them one of the leading causes of switchgear cabinet failures.

Traditional manual inspection methods have blind spots and cannot detect temperature anomalies in real time. Once a failure occurs, it can lead to unplanned production shutdowns, causing enormous economic losses to the mine.

2. Acrel Wireless Temperature Monitoring Solution: Tailored for Mining

Acrel provides a full-chain wireless temperature monitoring solution from sensors to cloud platform, and its core products have been validated in numerous mining and heavy industry projects worldwide.

Supplementary Solution for Humid Environments

For the humid conditions in Peruvian mines, additional deployment of AMB300 Infrared Temperature Measurement Device + AMB310 Data Collector is recommended for temperature monitoring of  busway joints. The non-contact infrared measurement ensures electrical safety, with an IP51 protection rating, and can simultaneously monitor temperature and humidity to effectively prevent condensation issues.

Additionally, AHE100 Wireless Temperature & Humidity Sensors can be deployed for comprehensive environmental monitoring inside distribution cabinets, enabling full awareness of the power distribution system’s environment.

    

3. Product Certifications & Compliance

   

Acrel’s ATE series and ATC series wireless temperature sensors have passed multiple international certifications, meeting overseas market access requirements:

• RED Certification: Compliant with 2014/53/EU Radio Equipment Directive, passed EU type examination certification

• RF Testing: Compliant with ETSI EN 300 220 standard, operating frequency 433.92 MHz, FSK modulation

• EMF Human Exposure Assessment: Compliant with EN 62311:2020, maximum radiated power 3.06mW, well below the 20mW limit

• Safety Testing: Compliant with EN 61010-1:2010+A1:2019+AC:2019

Frequency Band Options: ATE400 supports 470MHz (default), 433MHz, and 868-923MHz frequency bands. Select the appropriate version based on Peru’s local ISM band regulations.

    

4. Value-Add Model for Switchgear Manufacturers: Proven International Cases

Acrel’s wireless temperature monitoring solution, as a standardized value-added module, has been successfully integrated into the own-brand products of switchgear manufacturers in multiple countries, achieving differentiated competitiveness.

   

Benchmark Case: Brazil Switchgear Manufacturer (South American Market)

Suggested Value Proposition

  

Switchgear manufacturers can embed Acrel’s temperature monitoring solution as a standardized value-added module into their switchgear products, delivering the following value proposition to end mining customers:

“Our switchgear comes with a built-in online temperature monitoring system. Once a busbar or contact temperature becomes abnormal, an immediate alert is triggered, preventing unplanned downtime. For a mine, one day of production stoppage is enormously costly — this system is essentially ‘insurance’ for your electrical equipment.”

Benefits for the Switchgear Manufacturer: - Higher Product Value — Upgrade from selling “steel enclosure switchgear” to selling “smart monitoring switchgear” - Recurring Revenue Streams — Ongoing maintenance, sensor replacement, platform service fees - Differentiated Competition — Build a technical barrier in the Peruvian mining market

   

5. Cloud-Edge-Device Integrated, Full-Chain Service

  

Acrel possesses one-stop service capability from cloud platform software to terminal components, forming a “Cloud-Edge-Device” energy Internet ecosystem. Currently, over 38,000 system solutions are in operation across China.

The Acrel-2000T wireless temperature monitoring system provides comprehensive station-level functions, including: - Real-time temperature monitoring and curve display - Multi-level alarms (high-temperature pre-alarm, over-temperature alarm, phase-to-phase temperature difference alarm) - Historical data query and report generation - Web/APP remote access — monitor equipment status anytime, anywhere

   

Conclusion

  

Peruvian mines face prominent pain points of heavy loads, high humidity, and busbar overheating. Acrel’s wireless temperature monitoring solution — with its passive wireless design, easy installation, comprehensive international certifications, and rich global case references — is an ideal value-added package for switchgear manufacturers. Whether replicating the Brazil Varixx model of “core hardware + own HMI” or adopting Acrel’s complete turnkey solution, switchgear manufacturers can quickly build differentiated competitiveness and seize the opportunity in the Peruvian mining market.
