The power supply board is overheating
Thread Content
I just went to a department to help them install a new E+H 50 electromagnetic flowmeter, and I noticed that the power supply board of the flowmeter was quite hot to the touch. Have any of you encountered this issue? What’s the reason? Will it go down in the near future?
I haven’t encountered this issue, but if the power supply gets excessively hot, it indicates that the load is too high (there may be a short circuit) or that the performance of the power supply has declined, meaning it no longer has enough capacity to handle the load. It should be repaired as soon as possible; otherwise, it is likely to get damaged.
For new equipment, it’s better to inform the manufacturer; they will be responsible if there are any problems, and replacing a board is also expensive
There might be a problem; please contact your respective E+H sales representative/agent
Check whether the power supply voltage is normal; if it is, there’s no need to worry too much about it. This is related to the design by the manufacturer. It’s normal for components to generate some heat – electronic devices aren’t that fragile, and temperatures of 70 or 80 degrees are no problem.
The power board gets hot and can easily burn out; contact the manufacturer for assistance
Since it’s new, don’t wait until the warranty period has expired. During the warranty period, contact the manufacturer to resolve the issue; if the problem isn’t solved promptly when you report it within the warranty period, the manufacturer will still handle it free of charge, based on the date you submitted the request.
Contact after-sales support, as this is a mature product with poor load-bearing capacity; it seems there’s a loose connection, which causes overheating.
