The E-Sense device by Latium Technologies monitors cable damages for mining operations. The mining industry relies on networks of high-voltage cables to power electric rope shovels and hydraulic excavators. Typically, faulty cables trigger an automatic shutdown, but mining firms lack the tools to detect where the problem started. Instead, electrical engineers walk the cable length to identify the damaged segment manually.
Latium Technologies came up with a better and more efficient solution to this problem. Its groundbreaking E-Sense device is a non-invasion IoT sensor that monitors networks of high-voltage cables used at mining sites to identify faults and damages automatically. This device replaces the time-consuming and sometimes hazardous manual damage identification process. Boasting a five-year battery life, the device reports inconsistencies to the Job Site Insights desktop and mobile interface.
