FLIR Si124™ is an intelligent, easy-to-use acoustic imaging system designed to
help utilities keep the power flowing and manufacturing options going. Two
primary use cases for the Si124 include detecting compressed air leaks and
partial discharge (PD) such as corona, arcing, and tracking. Compressed air is
often the single most expensive energy source in factories, but air is often
lost due to undetected leaks or equipment inefficiencies. That leaked air can be
difficult to detect by the human ear or touch, particularly in loud
manufacturing environments where workers are required to wear hearing
protection. The Si124 can solve this issue by visually pinpointing the exact
source of a leak instantaneously, especially in hard to reach places that might
otherwise go unnoticed. For high-voltage electrical systems, PD can preface a
catastrophic failure, creating an unsafe environment and potential unplanned
downtime. The Si124 provides the ability to perform quick non-contact
inspections from a safe distance. The system then immediately provides the PD
type, allowing users to prioritize repairs. Learn more at www.flir.ca/si124
