PX1 enables Power System Security  Routine Inspection
.

Application Background The operating status of electric devices directly affects the operational security and efficiency of power systems. Regular inspection and fault  diagnosis of the operating  status of electric devices can effectively promote the power system to operate more reliably, safely, and economically, thus  minimising the  maintenance cost of the system. Thermal imaging technology has the advantages of no contact, no power failure and large-area rapid detection, which can quickly present the temperature distribution in the area. Functions such as high and low-temperature capture, multi-point temperature measurement, high-temperature alarm, and image storage are supported, which  can detect line defects and abnormalities promptly to ensure the power system’s stable and safe operation.

The Main Applications of Thermal Imaging in Power System Routine Inspection

Transformer Operating Status Detection
As an important part of the power network, the  transformer can affect the normal power supply if it is overheated and experiences failures, leading to high maintenance costs.  Transformer overheating  may be caused by improper installation of devices,  electrical isolation or gradual ageing of mechanical components, and improper setting of operating  parameters. Thermal imaging is  helpful to quickly  locate the overheating   position of a transformer and   detect hidden dangers such  as loose joints, overheating bushings, poor contact, overload, three-phase unbalance, and clogged cooling pipes for timely maintenance.

Temperature Measurement of Electrical Devices in a Power Distribution Room
The electrical device in the electrical cabinet fails during operation due to poor contact,  overload, and other reasons, thus affecting the normal operation of the power system. Electrical contacts, contact switches, line joints, and other critical points of electrical devices in the electrical cabinet must be checked regularly. Once the connections are found to be abnormally heated by thermal imaging due to overload and poor contact, the staff will be promptly alerted for corrective maintenance.

Temperature Measurement of the Generator Carbon Brush
As a sliding contact, the generator brush will  inevitably generate heat during operation, but this heat must be controlled within the normal range. Excessive temperature can cause abnormal operation, which will directly lead to device failure and affect the regular operation of the  generator set. It is necessary to monitor the temperature of carbon brushes regularly by thermal imaging to detect abnormal temperatures in time, ensure production safety and reduce economic losses.

Temperature Measurement of Wind Turbine Cable
At the joint between the anti-torsion cable of the turbine and the ordinary cable, the  air is possibly entering due to the butt joint of the sleeve after cutting. This results in  oxidation of the cable and an increase in resistance during operation. The temperature will rise when the wind is stronger, causing cable fracture and significant economic loss. Thermal imaging technology is used for regular detection to promptly detect the potential breakage risk of cables and reduce financial losses.

Smart Industrial Thermal Imaging Device PX1 
The PX1 is built with an InfiRay self-developed 12μm high-performance 256×192 infrared detector, a dual night vision system, and a 48-megapixel primary camera, which  can support routine inspection thermal imaging in any light. High IP grade and large-capacity battery can meet the requirements of engineers for lengthy outdoor  inspections in harsh environments.
T&M_EPR• Three-spectrum sensing of thermal imaging, visible light, and low-light night vision is available to support engineers for routine inspections at any time without any blind spots.
• The minimum temperature difference of 0.04 °C can be distinguished, and the measurement accuracy can reach ±2℃, with a frame rate up to 25Hz.
• Professional SDKs  and technical support can be provided to help customers develop their apps.
• A professional APP for infrared temperature measurement analysis is built in, analysing while shooting to obtain accurate data quickly.

T&M_EPR

• A protection rank of IP68/IP69K is reached,  complying with the MILSTD-810H standard.
• 5m-drop protection, as  well as water and dust resistance, makes it solid and durable.
• The ultra-large capacity  battery supports long-term outdoor use. Application Value of the Smart Industrial Thermal Imaging Device PX1
• It can be realised that non-contact measurement can be realised, which allows for remote measuring without changing the structure of the measured target, thus ensuring inspectors’ safety.
• Professional measurement tools are provided to freely monitor the areas selected  and automatically obtain the highest temperature point to implement intelligent photographing and fault diagnosis of devices.
• Photographing and video recording are  supported to transmit inspection data to the background, which is helpful for secondary analysis and remote diagnosis of on-site faults.
• App development  is supported to help customers enhance the level of intelligent inspection for efficiency improvement and cost savings.
• The lightweight structure makes it easy to carry and enables an all-in-one design, which lightens the burden of inspectors carrying many devices.
