What are some common items found in beer brewing electrical system?


We fabricated many beer brewing equipment for customers from all over the world. Our customers were satisfied with the brew beer equipment not only because of the good quality of the equipment but also our equipment has automatic control cabinet which can facilitate customer to operate the equipment. Let's learn what are some common items found in beer brewing electrical system.

a. Switches are the valves of electrical wiring. The confused fact about switches is that while a valve allows flow when it is open, an open switch prevents electrical transmission. Switches may control flow along multiple paths in multiple directions.

b. A relay is a special type of electrically operated switch. Small relays are used commonly in control wiring, clear plastic cubes mounted on a connection base. These 'relays' allow the automation of many processes in the beer brewing brewery. Relays are switched by supplying them with a small amount of power. 

c. The main disconnect switch is one of the first things to look for in any control panel. This switch de-energizes the entire control panel. The NEC requires that all electrical loads be outfitted with some sort of disconnect switch in close proximity and line of sight. For a panel, this is usually a switch that prevents power from being turned on if the panel door is open. Remember that there is still voltage left when main disconnect switch shuts down. 

d. Fuses are import and common much more safety elements which are widely used in electrical control panel. Fuses prevent dangerous quantities of electricity from moving through a circuit, protecting both equipment and people.

e. Heaters are placed in a circuit to monitor and arrest amp flow when the amp flow exceeds a defined quantity. Heaters are sized to be matched according to the load they are protecting.

f. Circuit breakers is similar to heaters. It can protect entire circuits and is placed in the main electrical control panel. Breakers provide circuit protection against both short circuits and slight overcurrent events.

g. A motor starter is used to control and protect an individual motor. The starter is a component that consists of a heater and a contactor which is basically a heavy-duty relay. A small amount of power is supplied to an internal coil, which causes a multipole switch to close rapidly.
