A long-awaited solution for addressing poor, inadequate electricity that has resulted in significant expenses and reduced productivity for PGA Krakatau.
PGA Krakatau is a volcanic observation post for Anak Krakatau, part of the
operational unit of
the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (PVMBG) under the Ministry of Energy
and Mineral Resources (ESDM). It is responsible for monitoring the activity of the still-active
Anak Krakatau volcano.
Stationed in Pasauran Village, Cinangka, Serang Regency, Banten, is in an area where the
electricity supply is highly vulnerable to power outages. The area is susceptible to disruptions
that cause unstable voltage, including:
Alongside with the BESS system, BEN Engineering also provides surge protection devices; Surge Energy Absorb and Transfer (SEAT). SEAT functions to ward off surge voltages from the main power grid, so that the output voltage from SEAT is safe from potential surge voltages.
SEAT does not only function as a surge protector device (SPD) like most products, but furthermore SEAT also has additional protection features, including:
The above factors cause electronic devices to have a shorter lifespan due to poor power quality, which has a direct impact on semiconductor components, chips, and other parts in the long run. Furthermore, because surges can affect the performance of electronic devices, they also impact the accuracy of the device's output.
an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
