DayCor Rail

View Datasheet

A professional railway UV inspection systems that incorporates the DayCor® daytime corona detection technology with shock absorbers and rugged design to enable high speed automatic detection of corona and arcing, provide high resolution images and straight forward reports.

Characteristics:

• Rail is a complete inspection tool with the most sensitive Visible-UVc bi-spectral detection apparatus and absolute solar blind performance.
• Rail performs accurately and reliably in high speed of up to 300km/h, without smearing the image and with high pinpointing resolution.
• Rail is equipped with Ofil’s narrow angle optical lenses through which the exact pinpointing of corona/arcing emitters from distances—is possible.
• Rail uses shock absorbers that eliminate shakings and jerky motions and provide smooth inspection
• Rail is uploaded with proprietary/tailor-made software and to suit specific individual needs of railways companies

Features Include: 

• Fit for inspection under any light and weather conditions
• Position system
• Automatic corona detection
• Automatic post inspection software
• Full Automatic focus for both UV and Visible channels
• Automatic blob counting and display for evaluation of the corona strength
• Video recording output
• Full automatic operations
• UV only, Visible only and Combined UV + Visible modes

Benefits Include:

• Accurately pinpoints sources of corona and arcing
• Offers robust inspection capabilities independent of power line loads and weather condition
• With internal storing
• High speed riding without missing coronas

Railway inspection for corona and arcing is an important factor in securing reliable transportation, and where the public good is concerned.

• Corona, being an intermittent phenomenon with typical repetition rate, is tricky to observe. The faster you ride the greater is the chance to miss a problematic spot. Scanning at lower speed yields more detailed information but the covered distance will decrease. The DayCor(® Rail is the solution for it is sensitive enough to allow high speed inspection.
• The need to identify structures and document meticulously the recorded inspection videos need to be digested and produce readable reports for instantaneous action.
