Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of online monitoring of SF6 density and micro-water content in GIS switchgear, and specifically relates to a wireless transmission SF6 density and micro-water content sensor. Background Technology
[0002] In GIS equipment, the density and moisture content of SF6 gas are key parameters affecting the equipment's insulation performance and operational safety. A utility model patent with patent number CN 214201061 U discloses an SF6 moisture density detection sensor. In use, the first self-sealing connector of the base is connected to the GIS equipment, allowing SF6 gas to enter the gas chamber of the base. The sensor located inside the gas chamber measures the SF6 gas and converts the sensed temperature and pressure into resistance and voltage signals, respectively, which are transmitted to a circuit board. The circuit board amplifies, filters, performs AD sampling, and calculates the collected temperature and pressure signals to obtain the SF6 density value. Then, the temperature, pressure, and density signals are output to a socket, and transmitted to a remote monitoring device via an aviation connector on the socket, achieving online monitoring of SF6 moisture density. However, the signal transmission between the aviation connector and the monitoring device is achieved via a wired connection, which has the following problems:
[0003] 1. Large on-site construction workload: It requires laying a large number of cables, which consumes manpower and material resources and is easily restricted by the site environment;
[0004] 2. Difficult installation and maintenance: Errors are prone to occur during cable connection, increasing the difficulty and time of installation and debugging. Furthermore, cables are prone to aging and damage, leading to signal interruption or data distortion.
[0005] 3. High cost: The cost of cables and related accessories, as well as subsequent maintenance costs, are high, which is not conducive to project cost control.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a wireless SF6 density micro-water sensor to reduce construction and maintenance costs and improve the reliability of the monitoring system. Utility Model Content
