01 · BACKGROUND
Customer Background
Enterprise Type
A Port Operator Enterprise, responsible for large container port operation management and handling equipment maintenance, is a national key transportation infrastructure facilities operator.
Enterprise Scale: [TBD]
Port Scale
Port contains container terminals, bulk cargo terminals, cold ironing systems, reefer container yards and other multi facilities, distribution rooms, substations, cranes are widely distributed, power load is large and types are complex.
Berth Count/Throughput: [TBD]
Industry Position
National Critical Transportation Infrastructure, need strict compliance with JTS 165 "General Design Code to Sea Port" and GB 50057 "Design Code to Protection of Buildings Against Lightning" standards, very high safe operation requirements.
Compliance Standard: JTS 165 / GB 50057
02 · CHALLENGES
Business Challenges
Marine Environment Corrosion Causes High Electrical Hazard Incidence
Port long period in high salt spray, high humidity marine environment, cold ironing systems, crane electrical cabinets, reefer container distribution line insulation easily ages, leakage and electrical fire hazards are significantly higher than onshore scenarios, traditional manual inspection is hard to detect in time.
Handling equipment power is large, temperature monitoring is hard
Bridge cranes, gantry cranes, conveyors and other large power handling equipment operate under long-period high load, cable joints and distribution box temperatures easily rise abnormally high, lack of continuous online temperature monitoring means, overheat hazards are hard to warn early.
Cold ironing system safety monitoring requirements are high
Berthed ships use cold ironing within range, voltage fluctuation, leakage, overload and other risks are prominent. Need for cold ironing sockets, distribution cabinets, and transformers real-time electrical safety monitoring, ensure crew and port personnel safety.
Reefer container group monitoring points are dense
Reefer container yard distribution circuits are dense, single box power is large. Manual inspection is time-consuming, coverage is limited, and some regions affected by operation control are hard to inspect at high frequency, electrical hazards are hard to detect in time.
