When sensors detect a change on a critical asset, operators can react quickly to re-balance or replace the asset before any damage is done. Say goodbye to emergency response units arriving to avert a catastrophe. Systems remain online and running smoothly.
Disruptive Technologies wireless sensors enable monitoring of critical functions in a substation without planning for any downtime during the installation. Monitoring is achieved by placing our small and robust wireless sensors on strategic components within the substation.
Monitor if the main door is left open or not.
Monitor the temperature of the transformer core.
Measure the humidity and temperature of the room.
Measure temperature individual high and low voltage phases.
Detect if there is water on the floor or if the water level is critical.
Cloud Connector mounted in a weather-proof enclosure.
Measure the outside temperature of the substation for reference.
Measure temperature on output power lines.
TANGIBLE INSIGHTS
At Disruptive Technologies, we are committed to delivering tangible business value to our customers. We serve dozens of customers in the energy industry, all with different business cases and deployment contexts. Thus, we have data points regarding the expected ROI and other financial returns indicators in this industry.
Our Savings Estimator helps quantify the value of your IoT investment and the practical impact of our solutions on your bottom line. This Savings Estimator is based on anonymized and aggregated data and gives wider insights into the benefits of our solutions. The insights are clustered and reported per industry, per application, and per use-case, all based on real gains by our customers.
Easily measure temperature, proximity, water level & humidity of your assets. Wirelessly transmit the results to your Cloud Connector via SecureDataShot™ technology. Get real-time data in the DT or partner cloud. Access information and set up triggers and alerts through our DT Studio or use our API to integrate it into your own or a partner system.
Sensors - Small ingenious sensors for humidity, temperature, water detection, door status, transformer temperature and core remote monitoring of your assets.
Cloud Connector - Our cloud connector gathers sensor data and transfers it to our cloud or a partner cloud. A plug and play gateway.
DT Cloud & API - View and manage data via our software, one of many partner portals, or a custom integration through our API.
Disruptive Technologies was founded to address the shortcomings of current sensing solutions. Leave cumbersome hardware and inflexible software behind. Perceive more with fewer interruptions and see sensor data immediately.
At 19 x 19 x 2.5mm, our sensors can be placed on almost anything using industrial-grade adhesive. They have a robust design with an IP68 rating (water & dustproof).
The low cost of our solution makes it economically feasible to continuously monitor equipment on a whole new scale.
There is no need for configurations during installation. Plug in the Cloud Connector and you’re ready to go.
All data is encrypted, from the sensor to the cloud. Best in class scores from 3rd party security reviews.
Our custom-designed chip technology enables us to deliver a battery life of up to 15 years in a normal environment.
Data is readily available for download or streaming to any analytics platform via a powerful REST API.
“The new data has thus not only helped discovered an incipient failure in a critical component, it also allows us to keep operating the substation in a safe and controlled way while we are waiting for an opportunity to repair or replace the troublesome components.”
- Boye Annfelt Høverstad, Head of Data Science at Statnett
Continous monitoring can make it possible to utilize transformer capacity better and provide insights into the health of components, also in regards to predictive maintenance.
To make getting started easy, we have developed substation-pilot.com, a plug-and-play solution for smart substation monitoring. With an easy to use dashboard, adjustable thresholds triggers, interactive historical graphs and more – the web-based application provides a frictionless way to pilot your smart substation monitoring needs.
