Detailed Implementation
[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides a monitoring device for detecting ethane gas in transformer oil, including a handheld gas chromatograph 100, a protection mechanism 200, and a mounting bracket 300. The protection mechanism 200 is disposed at the upper end of the handheld gas chromatograph 100. The protection mechanism 200 includes a mounting rod 201, a baffle plate 202, and a rotating rod 203. The mounting rod 201 is disposed on both sides of the handheld gas chromatograph 100, and the rotating rod 203 is disposed between the baffle plate 202 and the mounting rod 201.
[0023] The mounting bracket 300 is located on the rear side of the handheld gas chromatograph 100. The mounting bracket 300 includes a connecting plate 301, a connecting plate 302, and a back plate. The connecting plate 301 is located inside the connecting plate 302, and the connecting plate 302 is located on the front side of the back plate.
[0024] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the upper end of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 is provided with a sampling tube interface 101 and a data interface 102, and the front side of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 is provided with a display 103. The handheld gas chromatograph 100 connects to the sampling tube through the sampling tube interface 101 to sample the transformer oil. The monitoring data of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 can be exported through the data interface 102, and the detection data of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 can be displayed on the display 103.
[0025] In this embodiment, the bottom of the mounting rod 201 is screwed to the handheld gas chromatograph 100, one end of the rotating rod 203 is threaded to the baffle plate 202, and the other end of the rotating rod 203 is rotatably connected to the mounting rod 201. The baffle plate 202 rotates inside the two mounting rods 201 through the rotating rods 203 installed on both sides, thereby adjusting the use angle of the baffle plate 202, and fixing the angle with screws to prevent the baffle plate 202 from shaking.
[0026] In this embodiment, a transparent plate 204 is embedded in the inner side of the shielding plate 202. At least three mounting holes 306 adapted to the rotating rod 203 are opened on both sides of the shielding plate 202. The design of the transparent plate 204 avoids the shielding plate 202 from blocking the upper area of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 and affecting the operation. Through the design of multiple mounting holes 306, the installation position of the shielding plate 202 can be adjusted according to the usage requirements, thereby adjusting the shielding range of the shielding plate 202 and realizing personalized settings.
[0027] In this embodiment, the connecting plate 301 is screwed to the handheld gas chromatograph 100. The top surfaces of both the connecting plate 301 and the connecting plate 302 are U-shaped. The connecting plate 301 is located inside the connecting plate 302, and a connecting bolt 305 is provided between the connecting plate 301 and the connecting plate 302. The handheld gas chromatograph 100 and the mounting bracket 300 are connected through the connecting plate 301, and the connecting plate 301 and the connecting plate 302 are connected by the connecting bolt 305.
[0028] In this embodiment, the upper and lower ends of the connecting plate 302 are provided with buckle plates 304, which are snapped together with the back plate. The four corners of the back plate are provided with mounting holes 306. The connecting plate 302 is snapped onto the back plate by the buckle plates 304 at the upper and lower ends, and is installed in position by the mounting holes 306 on the back plate.
[0029] Specifically, when monitoring ethane gas in transformer oil, a handheld gas chromatograph is chosen for convenience, making it easy to view the test data. When fixed in place, the handheld gas chromatograph 100 is connected to the mounting bracket 300 via the connecting plate 301, and the connecting plate 301 and the connecting plate 302 are connected by the connecting bolts 305. The connecting plate 302 is snapped into the back plate, making it easy to disassemble when handheld.
[0030] Considering that the handheld gas chromatograph 100 is exposed to the outside when in fixed use and is easily corroded by rain or exposed to the sun, a protective mechanism 200 is set at the upper end of the handheld gas chromatograph 100. The shielding plate 202 is installed on both sides of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 using the mounting rod 201. The installation position of the rotating rod 203 on the shielding plate 202 can be adjusted as needed, such as near the front, middle, or rear end. The shielding range can be adjusted as needed, and the use angle of the shielding plate 202 can be manually adjusted. The rotating rod 203 rotates within the mounting plate 303 and is then fixed with screws, so that the shielding plate 202 can better shield and protect the handheld gas chromatograph 100.
[0031] The operating steps of the handheld gas chromatograph 100 are as follows: First, a certain amount of oil sample is extracted from the transformer to release the gas in the oil sample. Usually, heating and vacuuming are used to inject the extracted gas into the gas chromatograph through the injector. The gas is separated in the chromatographic column. Different gases move at different speeds in the chromatographic column due to differences in polarity, molecular size, etc., thus achieving separation. The separated gases pass through detectors in sequence. The detector can be a device that converts gas into electrical signals, such as a flame ionization detector (FID) or a thermal conductivity detector (TCD). The signal generated by the detector is recorded by the data acquisition system and converted into gas concentration information by the data processing module.
[0032] The handheld gas chromatograph 100, sampling tube interface 101, data interface 102, display 103, mounting rod 201, shielding plate 202, rotating rod 203, transparent plate 204, mounting bracket 300, connecting plate 301, connecting plate 302, mounting plate 303, buckle plate 304, connecting bolts 305 and other components of this utility model are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principle can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.
