Why SF₆ Leakage Monitoring in Switchgear
Gas-Insulated Switchgear (GIS) is based on sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) due to its excellent insulating and arc-quenching capabilities, which make it suitable for compact, high-voltage applications. SF₆ is a powerful greenhouse gas, and even small leaks can undermine system integrity, safety, and compliance.
Continuous SF₆ leakage monitoring in Switchgear significantly enhances the reliability of GIS by remotely tracking gas levels, eliminating manual gauge readings, and prior detection of leaks. It optimizes refill operations, saves maintenance expenses, and simplifies environmental reporting for regulatory compliance. With Real-time data, it streamlines asset management and improves overall substation availability.
Why Rugged Monitoring-
Rugged Monitoring’s SF₆ Leakage monitoring is designed for seamless compatibility with industry-standard pressure, density, and humidity sensors. It accommodates flexible integration to enable real-time monitoring of gas conditions in Gas-Insulated Switchgear (GIS).
The system features a versatile data acquisition platform that collects and logs analog and digital signals. Users can expand the system to monitor additional parameters such as current, voltage, and temperature, enabling a comprehensive approach to GIS condition monitoring. The platform is also adaptable to support fiber optics for increased thermal monitoring at cable ends.
The software’s integrated advanced analytics deliver predictive information such as refill time, lockout risk, and refill quantity, along with smart notification tools for maintenance scheduling.
