Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention provides an arc extinguishing medium for a sulfur hexafluoride gas-insulated fully enclosed power distribution device, specifically, an SF6 gas online monitoring and replenishing system. Background Art

[0002] At present, the rapid development of the power industry has led to the widespread application of various intelligent devices in power and electrical equipment to maintain the operating status of various power and electrical equipment. Sulfur hexafluoride gas insulated fully enclosed distribution device, referred to as GIS. It consists of circuit breakers, disconnectors, grounding switches, transformers, lightning arresters, busbars, connectors and outgoing line terminals. These devices or components are all enclosed in a metal grounded casing, which is filled with SF6 insulating gas at a certain pressure. High-voltage electrical equipment with high operating reliability, low maintenance workload and long maintenance cycle has a failure rate of only 20%~40% of conventional equipment.

[0003] However, GIS also has its inherent disadvantages. Due to the influence of factors such as SF6 gas leakage, external moisture infiltration, the presence of conductive impurities, and insulator aging, GIS internal flashover failures may occur. The fully sealed structure of GIS makes it difficult to locate and repair faults. The maintenance work is complicated. The average power outage maintenance time after an accident is longer than that of conventional equipment. The power outage range is large and often involves many non-faulty components.

[0004] GIS electrical equipment has received extensive attention in the operation of power electrical equipment due to its large capacity, multiple operation times, safe and stable operation, etc. During the operation of GIS electrical equipment, since the equipment is in operation for a long time, it is necessary to provide it with the required SF6 gas through other equipment. When SF6 gas is filled into the equipment, in order to ensure safety, the operating environment requirements are relatively high, and the gas may contain moisture. The price of SF6 gas is very high, and once it leaks, it will cause serious environmental pollution. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the deficiencies in the prior art and address the many disadvantages of traditional gas replenishment methods, the present invention proposes an SF6 gas online monitoring and replenishment system. The system uses pressure sensors and density relays to accurately monitor the internal SF6 gas pressure of GIS equipment, and is connected to an SF6 gas analyzer and SF6 gas leak detector. The system host transmits the monitored SF6 gas pressure data to the backend terminal through a gateway in real time, achieving real-time preview of the pressure value and real-time push of alarm signals, solving the technical problems of SF6 gas online monitoring and replenishment.

[0006] The solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is: The SF6 gas online monitoring and replenishment system includes a system host, terminal, pressure sensor, density relay, SF6 gas analyzer, SF6 gas density meter, SF6 gas density relay and SF6 gas leak detector; The pressure sensor is used to accurately test the SF6 gas pressure in the GIS equipment and transmit it to the system host. It has a monitoring function. When it detects that the SF6 gas pressure is lower than the specified value, the system's SF6 external gas source SF6 gas cylinder is started to replenish SF6 gas; Density relay is used to monitor SF6 gas in GIS equipment. It has three key states: "normal", "alarm" and "lockout". It monitors the amount of water inside the GIS equipment and has the functions of control and protection. SF6 gas analyzer, used to measure the humidity, percentage concentration and main decomposition products of SF6 gas, analyze whether the quality of SF6 gas in SF6 gas cylinder and GIS is qualified, and ensure the electrical performance of GIS equipment; SF6 gas leak detector: SF6 gas leak detection devices are placed at key locations and the leakage status is transmitted to the system host; The system host collects data information from density relays and pressure sensors, and communicates data with desktop terminals and mobile terminals through gateways; The gateway runs at the top layer of the OSI7 layer protocol - the application layer. It plays the important role of conversion. Between two systems that use different communication protocols, data formats or languages, or even completely different architectures, the gateway repackages the received information to meet the needs of the destination system. At the same time, it provides filtering and security functions. The terminals include desktop terminals and mobile terminals, which monitor the SF6 gas pressure inside the GIS equipment, SF6 gas quality analysis, SF6 gas leakage, the current status of the density relay and the real-time on-site images of the monitored equipment in real time.

[0007] Positive effect, because the present invention uses pressure sensor and density relay to accurately monitor the internal SF6 gas pressure of GIS equipment, and at the same time connects to SF6 gas analyzer to analyze whether the quality of SF6 gas cylinder and SF6 gas inside GIS is qualified; SF6 gas leak detector is arranged at key position, and the leakage status is transmitted to the system host; the system host directly connects the system with the monitoring equipment, and transmits the monitored SF6 gas pressure data to the background terminal through the gateway in real time, so as to realize the real-time preview of pressure value and the real-time push of alarm signal. It is suitable for application as SF6 gas online monitoring and replenishment system. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

It plays the important role of conversion.
