UV Cameras
See Invisible Corona Discharge Before It Becomes a Failure
Why UV Cameras Matter
Spot corona and PD early—UV cameras let you see what ultrasound can only guess.
Ultraviolet (UV) cameras are essential tools in predictive maintenance programs for detecting corona discharge and partial discharge (PD)—early indicators of insulation failure, surface contamination, or electrical stress in medium and high voltage systems.
Unlike standard ultrasound monitors that detect sound emitted by faults, UV cameras visually capture the ultraviolet light generated by corona discharge, making them especially effective in noisy environments or outdoor substations where acoustic interference can be high. UV imaging offers precise fault localization and visual documentation, supporting faster, more accurate maintenance decisions.
These issues emit ultraviolet light invisible to the naked eye. Our UV cameras allow inspectors to see and pinpoint these emissions in real-time, enabling teams to prevent catastrophic failures, reduce unplanned outages, and increase equipment lifespan.
Detect Voltage-Related Faults
Identify corona, tracking, and arcing activity long before visible damage occurs.
Ideal for Outdoor & High Voltage Environments
Perfect for substations, switchyards, transmission lines, and other exposed electrical assets.
Enhance Reliability & Safety
Reduces fire risks, insulator degradation, and flashover incidents—especially in polluted or humid conditions.
01
Handheld Cameras
Handheld UV cameras are designed for frontline field technicians performing routine inspections of electrical assets such as switchgear, substations, transformers, and cable joints. These compact yet powerful devices combine high sensitivity to corona and PD emissions with advanced zoom capabilities, HD video recording, and built-in GPS for precise geotagging. Their portability makes them ideal for quick diagnostics and maintenance planning, especially in confined spaces or complex industrial setups. With rugged construction and user-friendly interfaces, handheld UV cameras offer unmatched mobility without compromising detection performance.
02
Vehicle or Robot-Mounted UV Cameras
Mounted UV cameras integrated into mobile robotic platforms or inspection vehicles are ideal for large-scale or hazardous environments where human access is limited. These systems allow operators to inspect hard-to-reach or dangerous areas—such as power tunnels, elevated busbars, or high-voltage substations—without exposing personnel to risk. They offer live video feeds, long-range detection, and flexible positioning, enabling real-time diagnostics from a safe distance. Whether deployed on remote-controlled crawlers or utility trucks, these solutions ensure consistent and thorough inspections across extensive networks.
03
Drone-mounted Cameras
Drone-mounted UV cameras revolutionize grid inspection by making it possible to survey expansive, elevated, or remote electrical infrastructure without climbing or shutdowns. These lightweight UV systems are engineered for integration with industrial drones, providing stable, high-resolution imaging of corona and PD activity along transmission lines, tower tops, insulators, and other elevated components. Drones equipped with UV cameras can quickly scan long distances, collect geotagged imagery, and access terrain that is otherwise difficult or dangerous to navigate—making them a critical asset for utilities focused on proactive maintenance and grid reliability.
