TV36 & Application Module (APM): Pushing the limits of real-time monitoring for urgent actions

The growing popularity of electric vehicles also comes with new challenges and dangers. Overheating is one of the most serious issues. If malfunctions takes place, the battery will quickly become an explosive hazard, putting lives at risk. During production or operation, here’s how you can prevent catastrophic events.
At Selmatec we developed a solution that combines the TV36, a state-of-the-art IR-Camera, with an Application Module (APM) designed in-house specifically to answer to events that require urgent action, such as electric battery monitoring. The TV36 IR Camera is a powerful tool for industrial monitoring, capable of measuring temperature in real time. With extreme precision, it detects even the slightest thermal variations within a wide area, identifying faulty cells or components extremely early.
But to go from monitoring to prevention, the camera isn’t enough. This is where the APM solution steps in.
While the TV36 IR Camera captures and displays heat data, the APM analyses and acts, according to trends and anomalies in temperature. Even subtle changes are flagged as potential risks. With the APM, you can streamline the triggering of safety protocols and alerts, significantly increasing reaction time compared to monitoring with an intelligent camera on its own.
Additionally, the APM supports multiple devices, while still maintaining its high-speed feedback. Thus, it is ideal to monitor multiple angles and/or extremely large areas with the same efficiency to stop overheating before it escalates into a terrifying scenario.
Optimal monitoring and optimal integration go hand in hand
The APM's optional integration with industrial automation systems via Digital I/O, OPC UA, or ProfiNet, enhances its adaptability to diverse industrial environments, ensuring compatibility and interoperability with existing infrastructure. Feel free to use it as a stand-alone or as part of a wider network of solutions for smarter, safer and more efficient operations. Whether you’re addressing the challenges of EV battery monitoring and production, or managing critical systems in other fields, you can trust the TV36 IR Camera and APM combo to dramatically reduce risks.
