How a few good test tools saved motor replacements at a pulp and paper company

Power Quality & Calibration Case History

Top tools and technology for efficient operations

Rising energy costs and more stringent legislation guiding sustainable practices are spurring companies to re-evaluate processes and seek new tools and technologies to reduce waste and overcome challenges in today’s industrial environments.

Comtest to represent US Calibration and Maintenance asset management software giant

Comtest is proud to announce a commercial sales and representation agreement with US calibration and asset management software giant, PRIME TECHNOLOGIES world leader with an industry-proven record in calibration & maintenance asset management, and cloud-based software that makes complex calibration simple.

Detecting Power Quality Issues

Poor power quality comes at a cost. Monetary cost can come from power losses, but damaged assets could cost even more, including potential losses due to down time of a manufacturing process. Assets damaged by power quality events that result in increased heat will certainly shorten equipment life. To the untrained eye, problems in electrical distribution systems may not be recognisable as power quality problems. Knowing and recognising the most common power quality symptoms and how to troubleshoot them is a first step in solving power quality issues.

Verifying Resilience to DDoS Attacks

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks can target any application or service that is reachable from the internet. Web servers, DNS servers, routers, session border controllers, and many other services are constantly subject to attack. Identifying and mitigating these attacks is done using on-premises solutions, cloud-based solutions, or a hybrid solution combing both.
