Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electrical cabinet monitoring, and in particular to a VOC detector. Background Art

[0002] The power industry is a crucial energy source for national production and life, as well as for the economic development of various sectors. It is closely linked to both people's livelihoods and economic development. The power industry is primarily divided into several phases: power generation, transmission, distribution, sales, and consumption. Each phase requires a large number of various types of electrical cabinets to perform functions such as energy distribution, transmission, control, and circuit protection. Consequently, with rapid economic development and a growing population, the use of electrical cabinets has steadily increased. Electrical cabinets contain numerous cables, which can cause electrical fires due to short circuits, overloads, improper installation, poor contact, and poor ventilation. Cable combustion occurs in three steps: First, the cable's organic polymer composition softens due to heat. Second, the polymer's increased temperature produces various volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Once the VOCs reach a flammable concentration, the cable begins to ignite. Currently, electrical fire monitoring relies primarily on temperature detection equipment, but this method has limitations and may not accurately detect early signs of a fire. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The embodiments of the present application provide a VOC detector to at least solve the problem in the related art that early signs of fire cannot be accurately detected.

[0004] According to one embodiment of the present application, a VOC detector is provided, including a detector body and a detector circuit structure arranged in the detector body, the detector body includes a shell and end covers buckled on both sides of the shell, and the end rod is slidably connected to the shell, the shell includes a base portion and a shielding net portion, the shielding net portion occupies half of the area of ​​the shell, each of the end covers is provided with a fixing plate, the fixing plate is arranged on a side surface of the end cover away from the shell, a fixing hole for inserting a screw is provided on the fixing plate, the base portion is located on two side surfaces other than the end cover, and is provided with a fixing groove arranged along the length direction of the base portion and used to fix the reserved card slot on the electrical cabinet.

[0005] Furthermore, the base portion and the shielding net portion are both configured as base portions and shielding net portions with a "C"-shaped cross-section, and the base portion and the shielding net portion together constitute a shell with a "mouth"-shaped cross-section.

[0006] Furthermore, a plurality of mesh openings are evenly distributed on the shielding mesh portion, and the mesh openings are hexagonal mesh openings.

[0007] Further, one of the end covers has a terminal interface for an external terminal.

[0008] Further, each of the end covers is provided with a magnet on a side close to the fixing plate for directly adsorbing on the electrical cabinet of iron.

[0010] Through the present application, the VOC concentration in various electrical cabinets is measured, and the fire alarm situation is predicted according to the characteristic that the cable will volatilize VOC when heated. Compared with the traditional temperature-based detector for detecting fire alarm situation, the VOC detector is more suitable for use in the electrical cabinet and has higher accuracy.

The above-mentioned shielding net part 12 is made of 304 tempered material, the mesh opening 121 of the shielding net part 12 is uniformly opened as a hexagonal mesh opening 121, which can ensure that the shielding net part 12 can maintain good performance of monitoring VOC while maintaining good support and protection, preventing the circuit from being separated from the inside of the shell 1, and at the same time ensuring that the circuit inside is not easily damaged. The above-mentioned base part 11 is made of 6063 aluminum alloy material, which can ensure that the circuit structure is accommodated while maintaining good support and protection, and the weight is relatively light, and the material of the shielding net part 12 is different from that of the shielding net part 12 because the shielding net part 12 is more backward, and the shielding net made of aluminum alloy material is not hard enough. The above-mentioned base part 11 is located on the two sides of the shell 1 which are not the end cover 2, and is provided with a fixed groove 13 which is arranged in the length direction of the base part 11, the fixed groove 13 includes a plurality of parallel arranged, a reserved clamping groove is arranged above a part of the electrical cabinet, and the fixed groove 13 can be fixed on the upper side of the electrical cabinet by cooperating with the reserved clamping groove.

The digital isolator chip isolates the signal between the input and output through electrical isolation technology, avoids signal interference, reduces electromagnetic interference, prevents the generation of ground loop, and improves the stability and reliability of the circuit. 5V voltage then passes through the bus communication circuit designed by TJA1050, which receives and transmits CAN bus data. VOC concentration detection circuit 46 is designed with KQM6600TAU gas sensor module, which is used to collect and detect VOC concentration in the environment. It has temperature and humidity self-compensation function to avoid affecting the detection results during operation.
