Detecting faults in their early stages can effectively extend the lifespan of electrical grid components. Corona and arcing inspections within the railway industry are an important procedure intended to ensure reliable transportation and public safety.
The Ofil Daycore Rail Corona Inspection System doesn`t require an operator, the instrument is fixed to the train, switched on, and it records the corona count and high-resolution video clips. All its components have a high tolerance to jerky rides and strong vibrations.
