Виды Датчики температуры

Несколько types of sensors are used for transformer temperature monitoring, each with its own advantages and disadvantages:

Оптоволоконные датчики

Fiber optic sensors are increasingly popular for transformer monitoring due to their unique properties:

• Устойчивость к электромагнитным помехам: Completely immune to electromagnetic interference (ЭМИ), which is prevalent in high-voltage environments. This ensures accurate and reliable readings.
• Искробезопасность: Do not conduct electricity, eliminating the risk of sparks or electrical hazards.
• Малый размер и гибкость: Can be easily installed in tight spaces within the transformer, including direct embedding in windings.
• Высокая точность: Can provide very precise Измерения температуры.
• Долгосрочная стабильность: Exhibit minimal drift over time, reducing the need for frequent calibration.

Волоконно-оптические датчики на основе флуоресценции

These sensors, like those offered by ФДЖИННО, use a phosphor material at the fiber tip. The decay time of the fluorescence emitted by the phosphor is directly related to temperature, providing a highly accurate and stable measurement. Ключевые особенности включают в себя:

Key Features of FJINNO Fluorescence-Based Sensors

• Диапазон температур: -40°С до +260°С.
• Точность: ±0,5°С.
• Single-Point Measurement: Один fiber optic cable measures temperature at one specific point.
• Transmitter Channels: До 64 каналы на передатчик, allowing for monitoring of multiple points within the transformer.

ВБР (Волоконная решетка Брэгга) Датчики

FBGs are periodic variations in the refractive index of the fiber core. The wavelength of light reflected by the FBG shifts with temperature and strain, позволяющий Измерение температуры. FBGs can be multiplexed, meaning multiple sensors can be placed along a single fiber.

Термопары

Thermocouples are traditional temperature sensors that generate a voltage proportional to the temperature difference between two dissimilar metal wires. They are relatively inexpensive and robust but are susceptible to EMI and can drift over time.

Датчики температуры сопротивления (РТС)

РТС measure temperature by detecting changes in the electrical resistance of a metal wire (обычно платиновый). They offer good accuracy and stability but are also susceptible to EMI and are generally larger than fiber optic sensors.

Онлайн против. Offline Monitoring

Температура трансформатора monitoring can be performed online (беспрерывно) or offline (periodically):

• Онлайн-мониторинг: Provides real-time data, allowing for immediate detection of overheating and proactive intervention. This is the preferred method for critical transformers.
• Offline Monitoring: Involves taking periodic temperature measurements, typically using portable instruments. This is less expensive than онлайн-мониторинг but may not detect rapidly developing problems.
