Pinpointing Unexplained Power Outages To Keep The Facility Running Efficiently

Central Moloney faces challenges of a competitive market, changing costs of material to build our product and the challenge of producing a quality product with longevity at a cost effective price for our customers.  Fear that the power quality being fed into the facility may not be adequate to enable the sensitive machines to continue to operate reliably and without failure.

There has been a history of minor unexplained outages that Central Moloney are hoping to pinpoint that will help keep the facility running efficiently, reliably and safely without costly failures in the future. Central Moloney successfully applied for Arkansas Economic Development Commission’s Technology Transfer Assistance Grant and was able to hire Arkansas’ largest heavy industrial electrical contractor to install a Fluke power quality monitor for 3-5 days to monitor for power quality, power factor, and other transients. Once complete, extract the data from the meter to be analyzed and make further recommendations based upon the findings. Such fixes included, but not limited to, capacitors, power quality filters and other corrective measures.
