| Predictive Maintenance with Inform™ Technology Published March 2021 When industrial electrical equipment is compromised, it can result in a dangerous and a costly situation. Unplanned downtime due to equipment failure can be a threat to operators’ safety and to the company’s bottom line as it disrupts production and costs time and additional money to fix. One way to avoid this catastrophe is through device notification before an event happens. This isn’t magic, it’s genius through Leviton’s innovative line of intelligent wiring devices embedded with the Inform™ Technology.  LEV Series LEV Series Pin and Sleeve Devices embedded with Inform include mechanical interlocks , plugs, and connectors that supply power to industrial equipment. In addition to providing safe power connections, these devices provide data in real time, locally or remotely. Plugs and connectors with Inform offer line-of-sight power indication, allowing end-users to quickly identify if power is present, warning that the device is energized. Mechanical interlocks with Inform offer both local monitoring or remote monitoring through the innovative Inform application, which is easily downloaded to any mobile device or laptop. Accessible via Wi-Fi, the Inform platform allows for 24/7 insight to information on the wiring device’s temperature, humidity, liquid accumulation, line- and load-side voltage values and ground continuity. Prior to Inform technology, facilities’ maintenance personnel would rely on routine manual inspections to determine device status, which were timely and costly. Real-time operational status for the LEV Series’ devices through the Inform app provides early warning signals of any possible failure, which promotes safety while saving staff time, unforeseen expensive and unplanned equipment downtime. As an added feature, each Inform device label includes a QR code which provides specific technical information, instructions and ordering information. Don’t waste another dime or a minute on downtime. Stay informed. For more information, go to: Leviton.com/inform Previous Article | Next Article |
