LoadFlow // Digitalized load flow measurement
For optimised network operation in low voltage, use for intelligent local network stations
LoadFlow for digitized load flow measurement in distribution networks, local substations and cable distributors
Application area:
Distribution network operators, low voltage, local network stations, cable distributors, network analysis.
// Description
With the LoadFlow App from BentoNet, you visualize the load flow measurement in the low voltage and receive warnings of potential network bottlenecks. Measurements are taken at the outlets of local network stations and cable distributors.
The LoadFlow App is part of a complete package of hardware, secure data transmission and app.
// Functions
The LoadFlow application visualizes per outlet for you every minute:
- Voltage (3-phase)
- Currents (3-phase + neutral)
- Current flow direction
- Active power
- Reactive power
- Apparent power
- Power factor
Various detailed views and flexibly adjustable diagrams are available for clear evaluation. These allow you to view both current and historical data.
Thanks to the implemented live view, you always have an overview of the current situation in your stations.
All data can also be easily output via CSV.
Warnings when limit and threshold values are exceeded
Limit and threshold values can be defined for all currents and powers. Different rules can be assigned to these, so that warnings are issued when threshold values are exceeded. So you don’t miss anything, even if you are not logged in.
These violations are displayed in a detailed view, and you can have the warnings sent to you by push notifications. You can easily set the addressees of the push notifications in the app, and the responsibilities can be changed quickly and flexibly.
// Advantages
- Easy to use: modern and intuitive interface enables a clear view of your data
- Data basis for better network planning: recognizing where and how the load is changing; network connection questions can be answered and carried out more quickly
- Increased network security through the detection and tracking of faults
- Better planning for the replacement of operating resources
- Detect network bottlenecks early and avoid expensive repair costs
- View data anywhere: the app can be accessed via all common browsers, even when on the move (e.g. via tablet).
- Observe influences on the grid, e.g. from electromobility and fluctuating generators
- Detect unbalanced loads
// Version history
LoadFlow 2.0:
With the October 2022 update, LoadFlow has been optimized with the following features:
- Limits and thresholds: you can set limits and thresholds in the app. If these are exceeded, the app will send you alerts in the form of push messages.
- Usability: now the app appears in completely new interface, which is overall more intuitive and easier to use.
- Notification groups: you can now create notification groups within the app, so that only selected users receive the push notifications from each station. This allows for easy and quick switching of responsibilities, for example, when changing on-call responsibilities.
