    Corrosive Gas Sensors

    Dust sensor
    Corrosive gasses may be present in the outdoor air. Through ventilation they may get into your facility. H2S & SO2 gasses are known to corrode electrical and electronic equipment resulting in an environmental risk for your facilitiy. NOx & VOC form another danger to your facility.

    Thermal Camera Sensors

    Dust sensor
    Unlike contact temperature sensors or infrared spot sensors, our patented thermal image sensor looks at each bus bar individually and reports the hottest temperature for each of them. It can be mounted inside the equipment or on top of the IR window

    Temperature & Humidity Monitoring

    Dust sensor
    The ambient temperature measurement checks if your cooling is still operating and if the room has the desired temperature setting. Combined with the humidity sensors, it ensures that your equipment is running within limits.

    Water Leak & Ingress

    Dust sensor
    Water is the enemy of electricity. Inside switchgear the smallest of water due to condensation or other may result in catastrophic failure.

    Ozone Gas Sensor

    Dust sensor
    When an arc flash incident occurs, then Ozone gas is released. The sensor can detect ozone gas within the switch gear equipment.

Switchgear monitoring
Periodic manual versus automated 24x7 with InfraSensing's sensors
There are several advantages to using infrared thermal imaging sensors mounted onto the infrared windows of switchgear instead of manual periodic thermography inspections:

Continuous monitoring: Infrared thermal imaging sensors can continuously monitor the switchgear, allowing for early detection of potential problems.

Increased safety: With continuous monitoring, there is no need for personnel to enter the switchgear room, which can be dangerous due to the presence of high voltage equipment.

Improved accuracy: Infrared thermal imaging sensors can provide more accurate temperature readings than manual inspections, which can lead to earlier detection of problems.

Cost savings: Continuous monitoring can result in cost savings, as it eliminates the need for periodic inspections and any repairs that may be needed as a result of those inspections.

Remote monitoring: With the ability to remotely monitor switchgear, you can alert the maintenance team to any issues before they become critical, this can save time and money.

In conclusion, replacing manual periodic thermography inspections of switchgear with infrared thermal imaging sensors mounted onto the infrared windows of switchgear is a smart investment for any industry. Not only does it increase safety and efficiency, but it also allows for 24x7 monitoring and eliminates the need for scheduled power shut downs. This is the perfect solution for companies looking to increase productivity and reduce costs.
