FLIR Si2a-PD Introduction: Fixed Industrial Acoustic Camera
Discover the FLIR Si2a-PD fixed industrial acoustic imaging camera. AI-powered solution for 24/7 monitoring and early detection of partial discharge, corona, and electrical arcing.
FLIR Si2a-PD is a fixed acoustic imaging camera designed specifically for industrial environments and the electric utility sector. This advanced instrument is dedicated to the continuous and accurate detection of partial discharges, contributing decisively to preventing costly failures and improving the operational safety of facilities.
Key Features
Equipped with as many as 124 low-noise MEMS microphones, the Si2a-PD ensures constant monitoring and excellent acoustic visualization. Below are its main features:
- 24/7 Monitoring: Provides continuous condition monitoring, enabling early detection of partial discharges (PD), corona, electrical arcing, and other anomalies.
- Advanced Classification: Detects, locates, evaluates, and classifies partial discharges, supporting safe inspections and reducing analysis time.
- Assetlink Integration: Multi-sensor data can be tagged to assets to provide a holistic summary of the monitored infrastructure status.
- AI-Powered: AI-driven detection and analysis provide accurate results with minimal operator intervention, allowing for easy system integration.
Main Applications
This fixed solution was developed to operate in mission-critical environments, ensuring a constant data flow to prevent incidents and reduce maintenance costs:
- Electric Utilities: Early detection of faults in transmission, distribution, and substation assets to reduce outages, emergency maintenance, and high-cost failures.
- MV/HV Switchgear: Continuous and permanent monitoring of medium and high-voltage switchgear in industrial facilities to identify anomalies at an early stage and prevent costly downtime.
- GIS Systems: Condition monitoring of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) to detect insulation degradation, moisture ingress, or contamination early, avoiding catastrophic failures and expensive repairs.
