Powerful technique for identifying emerging problems in electrical equipment.
Ultrasound is used in electrical maintenance as a technique for detecting problems in electrical equipment and systems. This technique is based on the detection of ultrasonic sounds generated by electrical equipment in operation, which can indicate problems such as electric arcs, partial discharges, gas leaks, and other defects.
Descarga Parcial
- Detection of Electric Arcs and Partial Discharges: Pueden generar ruidos ultrasónicos que no son audibles para el oído humano. Los dispositivos de ultrasonido pueden captar estos sonidos y convertirlos en señales detectables, permitiendo a los técnicos identificar problemas antes de que se conviertan en fallas graves.
- Gas leaks: in electrical equipment that uses insulating gases. Ultrasound can detect gas leaks by picking up the sounds generated by the flow of gas.
- Detection of Abnormal Vibrations: Electrical components in poor condition can generate abnormal vibrations that produce ultrasound.
mantenimiento Predictivo
- Non-invasive inspection: Ultrasound allows for non-invasive inspections. Technicians do not need to disassemble equipment to perform these tests, saving downtime.
- Predictive Maintenance: Early detection of problems using ultrasound allows predictive maintenance strategies to be implemented. This helps to avoid unplanned downtime and extend the service life of equipment.
- Training and Technical Knowledge: Technicians who use ultrasound for electrical maintenance require training to properly interpret the data collected and make informed decisions.
