Monitoring
The equivalent life at the reference hot-spot temperature (95ºC or 110ºC) that
will be consumed in a given time period for a given temperature cycle is
. Equation 5.10
During 24 hours, the total number of time intervals is
Equation 5.11
Because the time intervals and the total time period used in the thermal model
will be constant, we can simplify the calculation of F
EQA
to the following.
Equation 5.12
Total Accumulated Loss of Life
The device estimates the total accumulated loss of insulation life in percentage of
normal insulation life by summing all of the daily RLOL values.
Equation 5.13
The device stores the TLOL value at midnight each day. You can use the THE P
command to load an initial value of TLOL into the device.
