Rotating Machines
Rotating machines are crucial in manufacturing, and pinpointing partial discharges (PD) is key to their maintenance and longevity. OFIL Systems’ solutions enable precise detection and localization of PD at any stage of a machine’s life cycle – from design through to maintenance, enabling operational efficiency and reducing maintenance.
MV/HV motors and generators
Rotating machines, including motors and generators, are vital to industrial operations, where even minor faults can lead to costly downtime. A key challenge in maintaining these machines is corona partial discharge (PD), which occurs in stators and rotors due to insulation degradation, contamination or design flaws.
Solar-blind UV corona cameras provide an effective solution by detecting external PD. These cameras help operators precisely locate PD, enabling targeted repairs and reducing the need for extensive testing or part replacements. In the design phase, UV corona cameras detect flaws early, improving quality and yield. During commissioning, quick checks ensure machines are ready for operation, reducing setup time. In service, UV corona cameras enable fault localization to avoid overhauls, minimize downtime, and extend insulation lifespan. Integrating UV corona cameras into maintenance routines enhances reliability, optimizes performance, and reduces service interruptions.
