Information obtained is used by maintenance teams to monitor and control the conditions of their assets.
DayCor® Corona cameras see and show where insulation is compromised; where corona rings are missing; which insulators are left unwashed; where are the (Read More) punctured insulators; where are air gaps in a generator; what is wrong with a switchgear’s design; where are broken-strands on conductors, etc.
When selecting technologies to monitor electrical assets’ conditions it is worth knowing that corona cameras provide immediate pinpointed imaging of the faulty components that need attention. Existing complimenting technologies such as thermography and acoustics cannot pinpoint the emitting sources. Thermography indicates hot spots which are not created by partial discharge such as corona and acoustic devices can indicate the existence of discharges without showing their exact location.
Ofil offers a range of products for various inspection modes. DayCor® Superb is a very popular hand held corona camera used worldwide. DayCor® ROM Ofil is a stabilized airborne system for most helicopters made and mounts. UVollé is a compact corona camera for daily use by maintenance engineers providing immediate information in real time.
