Thermal Watch
Wireless Infrared Temperature Continuous Monitoring for Electrical Assets
Why Traditional Temperature Monitoring Often Fails
No continuous monitoring
Complex installation
No visual fault indication
Difficult testing
Not reliable with ventilation
Radio Interference (RF)
What Is Thermal Watch?
Thermal Watch is a specialized wireless temperature monitoring system developed by Paralec to protect essential electrical infrastructure.
Unlike standard methods that rely on radio waves, this technology utilizes infrared pulses to transmit data, ensuring there is no signal interference or security risk within high-voltage environments.
The system consists of autonomous sensors that detect heat spikes and a central receiver that integrates with existing management software.
These components are designed for rapid installation without tools, providing localized visual alerts and remote notifications to prevent equipment failure. By focusing on applications like switchboards and busbars, the solution offers a robust alternative to traditional monitoring which often suffers from complex wiring and inconsistent oversight.
Ultimately, this hardware provides real-time supervision to ensure industrial safety and operational continuity.

How Thermal Watch Works
MEASURE
Autonomous sensors are installed directly on your assets to constantly monitor temperature levels.
1
COMMUNICATE
Data is transmitted wirelessly via infrared pulses. No cables to pull, no radio frequencies to manage.
2
ALERT
In case of an abnormal rise, an integrated LED provides an immediate visual signal at the exact fault location.
3
MONITOR
The receiver collects all alerts and forwards the information to your central monitoring system or control room.

Deployment in Seconds
Thermal Watch is engineered for non-intrusive installation in high-voltage environments. The system is fully operational immediately after mounting, requiring zero configuration and zero downtime for your infrastructure.
Designed for Critical Environments
Reliable Performance
Engineered to operate continuously in high-voltage settings, ensuring consistent monitoring regardless of environmental stress.
Power Autonomy
Advanced energy management provides years of autonomous operation, eliminating the need for frequent maintenance.
RF-Free Security
Infrared transmission removes the risks of radio interference and complies with the strictest security regulations.
Why Infrared?
Zero Radio Interference: Thermal Watch uses infrared pulses that do not disrupt sensitive industrial electronics or existing wireless networks.
Enhanced Physical Security: Unlike radio waves, infrared signals are physically contained within the electrical cabinet, preventing any external data interception.
No Frequency Regulations: Operating on the optical spectrum eliminates the need for radio frequency licensing or compliance with regional transmission laws.
Typical Applications
Electrical Switchboards
Continuous monitoring of main distribution frames and breakers to prevent fire hazards.
Busbars
Securing high-power copper connections in areas with limited or dangerous access.
Cable Lugs
Identifying thermal stress at termination points before they lead to critical failure.
Industrial Cabinets
Reliable thermal supervision for sensitive control units in harsh environments.
