DayCor® core cameras UV-EYE and UV-EYElite can be mounted on ground vehicles and used for driven inspections, remotely controlled. Ofil UV EYEs are fit for on-the-move inspections of overhead electric grid lines. These cameras allow on-the-fly detection of electrical and mechanical anomalies, as well as recording and streaming clear high-quality footage of both UV corona PD events and the emitting sources. DayCor® UV EYEs have been implemented on robots, vans, trucks, ATVs (all-terrain vehicles), and others.
Ofil’s UV-EYE and UV-EYElite combine high detection capabilities of remote UV signals with powerful visual imagery of the inspected scene. The cameras implement Ofil’s proprietary core DayCor® Solar Blind Technology which ensures their impeccable performance during the daytime. Thanks to their high sensitivity to electric corona PD, inspectors get solid good, reliable, and comprehensive info on any existing corona event and corona-related fault that exists throughout the scanned area.
Note: Though Ofil is not involved with customized integration of the cameras on the selected platforms, Ofil supports its customers with remote control scripts, and recommended configurations.
DayCor® UV-EYEs are valuable inspection solutions, providing:
Ofil’s DayCor® UV-EYEs can be used in tandem with additional complementary inspection technology, such as Thermal IR or ultra-HD video cameras, or powerful tele cameras. Any selected combination contributes its unique data leading to a comprehensive perception of the condition of the inspected asset.
Each of the UV-EYEs cameras includes an AC/DC adaptor, HDMI video streaming protocol, a set of communication cables, a hard case, and a the commands that control the cameras’ functions.
DayCor® UV-EYE HD and UV-EYElite are premium inspection solutions for driven practices with a selection of optical sensors in a stabilized pan-tilt-zoom mount. Ranger is instrumental to scan extended long overhead lines with right of way. The system supports preset profiles configuration to accelerate response time to the fast-changing scenes. High sensitivity and on-the-fly real-time imaging, that does not involve processing, ensure reliable comprehensive results.
Freezing or sizzling outside, stay in your airconditioned truck and let the DayCor® Ranger provide. Turn on the system and start inspecting. If there is corona DayCor® will catch it for you, stream it to your monitor and store it onto the memory card. The hi-resolution recorded video clips will help you prognose the inspected grid elements and help you generate the expected summarizing reports.
It is all about partial discharge. All it takes is a local distortion of the electrical field that stresses the air and triggers PD, hence there is a limit to what air can endure. Unless you are a Reindeer or a bee, only with a DayCor® you will be able to see. Corona is UV and DayCor® is a UV technology. DayCor® Ranger is a camera system that leads inspectors to the locally discharged corona revealing thereby electrical, architectural and mechanical faults. Never say there is no corona, simply because corona is there but it must be discovered.
“.. SDG&E purchased a daytime corona camera to improve patrol reliability. The corona camera also effectively identifies insulator contamination caused by salt deposits. The thermographer combines the corona camera with the infrared camera on the pan/tilt head on the roof of the van. By using this corona technology, inspectors are able to identify areas of concern and investigate the components to determine if their life expectancy has been compromised. To further identify components compromised by corona, SDG&E invested in a gimbal that has a corona camera and mounted it on the helicopter..”
