Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Partial Discharge Detection
Key features:
• Detect, locate, classify, and assess partial discharge (PD) faults from up to 200 m (656 ft) away
• Identify PD 30x smaller than ever before
• On-camera and software-based severity assessment of PD issues, and PD type classification, provides best-in-class decision support
• One-handed operation with automatic tuning, 8x zoom, a 12 MP digital camera, and IP54 rating
• Made for enterprise scaling through the use of fleet management functionality so that managers can ensure the tools are being used and maintained properly
Main applications:
• Monitor transmission & distribution conductors and components at long distances easily and reduce need for emergency repairs
• Inspect substation transformers to detect PD issues early, before they result in a dangerous and costly explosion
• Find PD issues in any piece of high-voltage equipment to reduce public complaints of radio interference and audible noise
